Ed's last show...

Walker restarted and continued: “All these years I’ve been trying to play the music and the shows that I think you all enjoyed. Well, tonight I want to turn things around a little bit and I’m going to do my favorite shows because this will be my last ‘Big Broadcast.’ Things come and things go, and right now it’s time for me to go. So we’re going to play some of the shows that I think have special merit, shows that are my personal favorites...”

“Good night, everybody,” Walker said.

And then Ed Walker did something he may have never done in half a million minutes in front of a microphone. He started to cry.

Everyone in Room 623 cried, too.

I grew up just a couple of miles from the WRC/NBC studio on Nebraska Avenue, which is just a quarter-mile or so from American University.

Ed Walker has been an institution of us native-born Washingtonians.

Boy I love this man and this show...
For people who are no longer in the DC area, what is the most reliable way to stream the show?
