I'm a big fan of old time radio shows.
When I lived near Washington D.C., I tuned in regularly to the Big Broadcast on Sunday evenings. The show ran (as close to possible) full runs of classic shows as well as an hour of requests. Each year leading up to Christmas, we'd hear a variety of Christmas-themed shows in the request hour.
Today, I thought I'd do a countdown of the 12 days of Christmas with some of the Christmas-themed episodes of various old time radio shows I enjoy and listen to this time of year. I figured I'd start off with an interesting classic from the show, "Suspense." It's called 'Out for Christmas' and it stars Raymond Burr (better known to most as TV's Perry Mason).

Enjoy and tune in tomorrow for the next installment.
