THE 2025 RETRO HALLOWEEN SHOW!

This is it, boils and ghouls - the show we count down to all year! If you're a long time listener, you know what the Retro Halloween Show is all about. We take a full day of Halloween in 1980-something and compress it down to 2 hours of radio, complete with music, commercials, morning talk shows, PSA's, you name it. This time around is a little different, as it was part of WUSC's Fall Fundraiser, which had a 1970's theme. So, it's more '70's influenced than '80's, but we dip our toes into the '80's (and maybe even a little beyond) too. Enjoy! 

10/18/2025
