'The War' by Adam Graham

"The War" by Adam Graham I find the old time radio news broadcasts surrounding Pearl Harbor and VE Day and VJ Day to be fascinating. I was blessed to find a series of newscasts on the Internet. One was an all-night broadcast from June 6, 1944, a newscast that reported rumors and news of the Allies landing on the shores of France, which was later depicted in the movie, "The Longest Day." Fascinating to hear Robert Trout anchoring the broadcast. I can barely remember Robert Trout's TV reports in the 1950s. Adam Graham has started a podcast that is truly a study of World War II as heard on the radios of the American people. Fascinating stuff! I highly recommend it.
