WGN Radio will broadcast special holiday programming. On Christmas the station will feature 27-hours of “Christmas Radio Theatre” hosted by Carl Amari and a New Year’s Eve Extravaganza will feature hosts Steve and Johnnie and John Landecker.
Amari has spent decades licensing and preserving classic radio broadcasts from the 1930s, 40s and 50s, is the curator of the Classic Radio Club, and board member of the Museum of Broadcast Communications in Chicago.
Steve and Johnnie were heard overnights on WGN Radio for 27 years. Before they signed off in 2011, the husband-and-wife hosting duo featured subjects from the whimsical to the serious and often spotlighted musicians and music.
