What Happened to Radio Repair Shops? Why They Vanished from American Life

Do you remember when the radio was a beautiful, heavy piece of wooden furniture that sat right in the center of the living room? When the dial stopped glowing, you didn't just throw it away. You called the local radio repairman, or carefully pulled out the hot glass vacuum tubes to take down to the hardware store's "Tube Tester." In this episode of Not That Long Ago, we are uncovering the fascinating mystery of what exactly happened to the neighborhood radio repair shop. From the golden age of massive living room consoles to the invention of the pocket-sized transistor, we explore how this highly respected, everyday American trade completely vanished from our towns.
