Nostalgia Digest

Nostalgia Digest Magazine is a 64-page quarterly publication filled with articles about the "Golden Age" of radio, television, movies, and music, written by those who lived it and those who love it! Since 1975, Nostalgia Digest Magazine has provided readers with an entertaining, educational look at life and popular culture during the first half of the 20th century (and sometimes beyond).

In addition, every issue of Nostalgia Digest Magazine includes a three-month schedule for "Those Were The Days," the old-time radio showcase hosted by Radio Hall of Famer Chuck Schaden and heard every Saturday afternoon (1:00-5:00 p.m. CST) on WDCB-FM (and on the internet at www.wdcb.org). You'll find a complete listing of the old-time radio programs heard every week on "Those Were The Days," including original broadcast dates, titles of stories, names of stars and supporting players, and a line or two describing each show. It's exclusive to Nostalgia Digest Magazine and a perfect complement to the stories, subjects and stars we cover in every issue!

Subscribe now! A one-year subscription (4 issues) is only $15; a two-year subscription (8 issues) is only $27.
