So, this week Sir Ernest Crackleton utters not one single word, because it’s a special mix that was intended for a backyard barbecue a couple of weeks ago, except the podcast wasn’t finished in time, because the keys to the Crackleton Manor music studio went astray, and the studio was inaccessible, but the barbecue still went smashingly, a good time was still had by all, despite the lack music.
Sir Ernest, luckily regained entry to the studio last night, and finished the mix – it’s a splendid selection of recordings from 1914-1950, except of course, for the snazzy intro theme song at the beginning… and if you think this is worth keeping available for future generations to enjoy, consider making a small donation to Radioactive International, or buy one of their wondrous garments, and be the absolute envy of all your friends and neighbors.
