Listening to special radio programs was always a favorite activity.

  Listen to the the story:  

"The radio programs used to be all these serials, and this was a big thing in our life in growing up -- listening to 'The Lone Ranger' and 'Jack Armstrong' and 'Buck Rogers' and programs of that nature."
