Honest, I Should Have Known Better…

Filed under: Old-Time Radio — Charlie Summers @ 8:10 pm

…but no, I see Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar’s episode, “The Flight Six Matter” is on XM Satellite Radio’s AudioClassics channel (programmed by people at MediaBay who have no respect whatsoever for Old-Time Radio), and yep, you guessed it; they hacked up the episodes, alright. So now I need to go back to the reel copies I have instead of screaming at my XM radio…I mean, it isn’t their fault they contracted with oafs with no love for anything but selling Esquire…

But I really need to lock that station out of my new Tao XM2Go (which I will be reviewing in this space soon)…every time I hear their ham-handed editing of excellent programming, I want to scream. Let’s all hope someone with a love for old-time radio begins licensing programming; after all, at the rate the company is going, MediaBay will be folding any time now, and hopefully any company that follows it will have some respect for the programming instead of distain.
