Join Steve Darnall for The Windy City on the Air: Chicago and the Golden Age of Radio.
Chicago was a major radio epicenter during the medium's early years. This program explores Chicago's many groundbreaking contributions to the medium, including soap operas, juvenile adventure serials, early morning radio shows and local legends that became national sensations. For more than a decade, Steve Darnall has had the opportunity to share his twin fascinations for American history and popular culture as the host of Those Were the Days and the publisher of Nostalgia Digest.
