The Big Show, and TV series of the Mid 1960s - a podcast by Smitty, Mike, and The Galaxy Gang

Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site remembers the 60th anniversary of "The Big Show". Smitty recalls the last big, all star radio program on NBC radio which debuted on November 5, 1950. This grand program aired in the twilight of old-time radio. The roster of stars to appear on "The Big Show" was truly big, ranging from artists who were long established all the way to newer stars of the late 40's. Hosted by Tallulah Bankhead, this program would air for two years before it was canceled, and the era of old-time radio came to a close. Ian Rose delivers a review of TV shows from the 1964-65 season. Such shows as Wagon Train, Daniel Boone, Ben Casey, Combat, Mr. Magoo, The Rogues, Ninety Bristol Court, and many more are remembered. Mike, Smitty, and Ian recall the wide variety of program types that were on the air during this time. Our Retro-Commercial is a dramatic Camel Cigarette commercial. Listen to it all on this edition of Galaxy Moonbeam, Night Site!
