  • Old-Time Radio (otr)

    From MIKE POWELL@454:3/106 to MORTAR M. on Wed Dec 31 19:03:00 2025
    Well, that's the beauty of radio, Just listen while you work. some years bac I used to occationally co-host a show called The Glowing Dial which was heard on YesterdayUSA.net. I gained an appreciation for OTR doing that. I sometim think I'd like to do a reboot of that show.

    When I was younger, I seemed to be able to work and listen at the same
    time. As I have gotten older, sometimes I have difficulty concentrating
    on what I am doing and not getting into the music.

    Hmm: maybe a new tagline?

    Young: Disco Duck! Old: Disc-go Duck!
