Radio Goodbye

NPR
Published September 10, 2000 at 11:00 PM CDT

The longest continuously running radio program in the world ended today. Rambling with Gambling was 75 years old. It had been on WOR in New York City since 1925 -- always hosted by someone named John Gambling: father, son and grandson. It was a morning program that started as an exercise show and became light talk, music, news and traffic & weather.
