 As per tradition we have a number of Thanksgiving themed radio shows including a two hour Jack Benny Turkey Day special as well as Father Knows Best, Abbott & Costello, Our Miss Brooks, The Aldrich Family, and more. 

We also celebrate three MAJOR radio stars on the week of their birth as we have two-hour specials for Howard Duff (Suspense, The Whistler and Two from Sam Spade);  John Dehner (Have Gun, Will Travel, The Whistler and two from Escape) and Elliott Lewis (Arch Oboler's Plays, The Clock, Phil Harris & Alice Faye, Crime Classics). 

Finally we have a Super Thanksgiving Weekend beginning on Friday night 8pm ET (7pm CT, 6pm MT, 5pm PT) as we will play a three and a half hour Superman storyline from September of 1945. It includes clips from my interview with Michael Hayde, the author of Flights of Fantasy: The Unauthorized but True Story of Radio & TV's Adventures of Superman.

My sincere thanks to all of you! Pass the turkey.

Hey folks,

 I will be sitting down with Maggie Linton and Kim Alexander on their live "Cover To Cover" program over on Sirius 117 XM 163 today (Tuesday) at 3pm East (2pm CT, 1pm MT, Noon PT) for an interview I conducted with Hollywood screenwriter (3:10 To Yuma, Wanted) and novelist, Derek Haas. He is a big Radio Classics fan and we talk about his second novel, Columbus: A Silver Bear Thriller hitting bookstores on Sunday the 15th. It is a fun interview and I encourage to to come on over and check it out.

Greg.
