Say Goodnight, Gracie is a book written by Jim Cox, about the last days of network radio. Bob Acosta asked me to record it for Helping Hands for the Blind. It includes the OTR themes from the shows that Jim Cox mentions. Joy Jackson has been working on this for the past five years (started in 2005). There are 16 files in each half, each file around 20 minutes long. Total listening is around 10 hours.
