Directed by Dani Schafer-Cloke and Foley Director James Wallace
Presented by: 560 KPQ
A Christmas Story follows 9-year-old Ralphie Parker growing up in the Midwest in the 1940s and his quest to get a genuine Red Ryder BB gun under the tree for Christmas. Ralphie pleads his case before his mother, his teacher, and even Santa Claus himself at Higbee's Department Store. The consistent response: "You'll shoot your eye out!" All the elements from the beloved motion picture are here, including the family's temperamental exploding furnace; Scut Farkas, the school bully; the boys' experiment with a wet tongue on a cold lamppost; the Little Orphan Annie decoder pin; Ralphie's father winning a lamp shaped like a woman's leg in a net stocking; Ralphie's fantasy scenarios and more. A Christmas Story is destined to become a theatrical holiday perennial.

What is an Old Time Radio Show?
Before TV took over, radio was one of the world’s main sources of entertainment. Apart from news, commercials, and music, it also broadcasts shows: dramas, mysteries, comedies, and more. Families in the 1920s through to the 1960s gathered around to listen to what we now call old-time radio shows. Stories were brought to life live on the radio with voice actors and foley artists.
