There is a new interesting release by BCE, described as "Bing Crosby’s original 1950s Radio Shows are now available on Bing Crosby’s YouTube channel! Cozy up and hear Bing chat about life, music, and more—all while crooning timeless ballads in your living room" the release earlier today seems to have gained some digital attention. I always though of radio as the medium most suited to Bing's talents and it is nice to see that they are using radio episodes to promote his legacy, I am a huge fun of his radio work but I haven't yet heard all episodes available so I am not sure from what year this was taken for.

The way that they edited Bing's face into the picture is a little strange, but other than that, I approve of the release. Just makes me sad I can't tune into NBC radio to listen to a Bing program, or anything else like that for that matter, anymore like it used to be.
Random question, if anyone would know. Did they ever play reruns of shows like they do for television? Of course we can listen to the taped shows again and again now with the material we have, but would the stations rebroadcast them after the initial airdate?
