Are you one of the people who just saw the new Green Hornet movie? Are you at all interested in the history of this venerated character? SiriusXM Radio wants to help. The Green Hornet got his start on Detroit radio station WXYZ.
His creator already had a hit with the Lone Ranger radio program and wanted to catch lightning in a bottle twice, this time with a more contemporary hero. SiriusXM’s RadioClassics has been re-broadcasting these classic adventure for the last eight years. Now with the advent of the Seth Rogen blockbuster, the fine folks at SiriusXM are giving Old Time Radio fans a rare treat.
On Friday, January 14th at 8pm EST, RadioClassics (Sirius 118/XM 164) will be airing a one-hour Green Hornet special featuring two “lost” episodes! These two World War II-era programs have not been aired for nearly 70 years.
If you’re out Friday night, possibly watching the new movie, RadioClassics has you covered. An encore presentation will air on Saturday, January 15th at 10pm EST.
Now this is all well and good, but what about those of us who don’t have a Sirius or XM subscription? Don’t worry, you’re covered too.
