This week's programs:You Are There: Philadelphia, July 4th, 1776
The Great Gildersleeve's Old Fashioned 4th of JulyDear Friends,We hope everyone in your household is having a great holiday week! We will resume posting new programs next week, but we just couldn't let the 4th pass by without bringing back two of our all time favorite programs for you. Be sure to take time out from your celebrating to enjoy these programs... they'll add a lot to YOUR 4th of July too!
Also, take a moment today to see our newest mp3 collection and the spectacular "early bird" bonus we are offering right now. Tons of folks have asked us if we were ever going to sell something like this, but there it is, FREE... if you act quick. Check it out!
You Are There: July 4th, 1776
Let's go back to the Philadelphia Statehouse on a blistering hot July evening in 1776 when the gathered colonial delegates come to a crisis point -- with a British Armada looming ominously in New York harbor and certain attack imminent, will the Declaration of Independence be adopted, or tossed out altogether? This great episode of "You Are There" recreates the events of that day as they might have been covered by radio reporters, had they been there at the time. Listen to the events that occurred on the birthday of our country. A great "living history" program!
The Great Gildersleeve: An Old Fashioned 4th of July
Also, here's our annual re-presentation of one of our favorite radio shows ever, the Great Gildersleeve’s Old-Fashioned Fourth of July program from way back in 1948. Boy, wouldn’t it be great to have a 4th of July celebration like this? This warm, funny, and patriotic episode captures a holiday full of carbide cannons, flags, patriotism, wagon rides, swimming hole antics, picnics and sing alongs... a way to spend a holiday that no longer exists today. You’ll love it!

To download a program, RIGHT click (use the right hand button on your mouse) the link above, and "save target as" (or "save link as") to the directory of your choice. The file should start downloading right away. If it doesn't, try it again, and follow these instructions carefully. (DON'T cut and paste this link into your web browser -- that will just PLAY the program over the internet (it will be jumpy and start & stop a lot), and will not DOWNLOAD the program. If you want to download it to your computer, you need to follow the above instructions.)
NOTE: If the file just starts playing over your computer right away, that's because you clicked the link with the LEFT hand button on your mouse. You need to click the RIGHT HAND button to download the whole show to your computer.
IF you right click the link and your computer does not allow you to "save target", you need to adjust your computer's security settings (or disable your "internet content advisor" settings) to allow downloaded files.
MAC USERS: In order to download these files, hold down the Option key then click the link with your mouse. It will then download to the directory you choose.
If your download is unusually slow, it could be because our server is busy or overtaxed. You might try again at a later hour. It should - eventually - work fine.
