Welcome We would like to take you on a journey. A journey through time. Back to those glorious days when radio ruled the airwaves.
When instead of coming home to the flickering pictures of television shows, you came home to listen to Dad and Dave, When A Girl Marries, Bob Dyer, Jack Davey or one of the many series or plays with George Edwards, all brought to you via the Wireless .
Some of those names may be familiar to some of you, after all Jack and Bob were on Television , but many Actors, Writers, Producers, Directors etc who were household names and amoungst our top Australian Celebrities of their time, have been completely forgotten.
The journey will be familiar to some, taking you back to days where we hope we will rekindle your memory of those glorious days. To others it may be a new experience, as we talk about the shows and people that made up The Golden Days of Australian Radio
We will do this by sight, sound and the written word.
Our New Look
If you've been here before you will notice we are changing our look. This will be a gradual change, with the older pages retaining the original look until we can get round to changing then.

As well as a new look we will be introducing many new articles and features so be sure to come back often
