Classic Radio Theater features great radio programs that warmed the hearts of millions for the better part of the 20th century. Host Wyatt Cox brings the best of radio classics back to life with both the passion of a long-time (as in more than half a century) fan and the heart of a forty-year newsman. But more than just “playing the hits”, Wyatt supplements the first hour of each day’s show with historical information on the day and date in history, including audio that takes you back to World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. FDR, Eisenhower, JFK, Reagan, Carter, Nixon, LBJ. It’s a true slice of life from not just radio’s past, but America’s past.
Wyatt produces 21 hours a week of freshly minted Classic Radio Theater presentations each week, and each day’s broadcast is timely and entertaining!

Classic Radio 10-26-25 - Gossip about Jack, Parents Day, and The Spooky Cemetery

Comedy on a Sunday

First, a look at this day in History.

Then, Jack Benny, originally broadcast October 26, 1952, 73 years ago, A Gossip Article about Jack. Louella Parsons, the famed Hollywood gossip columnist, visits Jack for an interview and dinner. Jack is uneasy because Parsons has already written a gossip piece about him; he hopes to steer conversation away from that.

Followed by The Aldrich Family starring Bobby Ellis, originally broadcast October 26, 1952, 73 years ago, Parents Day. It's Parent's Day at school. Confusion runs rampant...and then there's the spelling bee!

Then, Father Knows Best starring Robert Young, originally broadcast October 26, 1950, 75 years ago, A Spooky Cemetery. A Halloween story. The Anderson family runs out of gas on a dark night...in front of a cemetery.

Followed by The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, originally broadcast October 26, 1947, 78 years ago, The Handy Man. The Nelson family finds themselves in a home-repair dilemma. Ozzie volunteers (or is volunteered) to be the “handyman,” attempting various fixes and repairs around the house.

Finally. Lum and Abner, originally broadcast October 26, 1942, 83 years ago, Abner’s Rocket to Mars. Abner gets the idea to build a rocket ship and fly to Mars!
