Old Time Radio Christmas Shows: Programme Guide.
A Christmas broadcast can be a family argument, a Western encounter, a sacred song or a full dramatic adaptation. This collection brings those different seasonal forms together for browsing across radio’s wider archive.
Broadcast history.
Old Time Radio Christmas Shows is a modern thematic grouping, not the name of one historical network production. Individual items come from different programmes, recording years and presentation formats.
Cast and creative team.
There is no single cast, writer or director for the whole collection. A Life of Riley episode, a Six Shooter story and a choral performance require their own credits, even when all three concern Christmas.
Where to begin.
The Six Shooter: Britt Ponset’s Christmas Carol · Life of Riley: The Christmas Present
These available recordings offer an introduction to this collection. Their current publication dates are separate from historical broadcast dates.
An interesting detail.
Several recordings can share the title A Christmas Carol while using different adapters and companies. A matching title alone does not show that the audio is duplicated or that one version’s star appears in another.
Listening appeal.
Try The Six Shooter’s Britt Ponset’s Christmas Carol for a Western story, or Life of Riley: The Christmas Present for family comedy. Songs offer a different route through the seasonal selection.
Collection and date notes.
HRV lists 535 public recordings. The 535 records include songs, dramas and programme excerpts; that total is not 535 episodes of one original series. Current podcast dates describe later archive publication, separately from original broadcast dates.
