Check out America’s Longest Running Radio Show

America’s longest running radio show happened to emerge out of a Barn Dance. In 1925, a Nashville radio station WSM, went on air. Its director, George D. Hay organized a Saturday Night Show, also called “barn dance”. Live performances ranged from minstrel acts to military bands, traditional numbers to country-side music.

The show that preceded the “barn dance” was a classical music program named The Music Appreciation Hour. Hay introduced the barn dance by saying “For the past hour you have been listening to music taken largely from the Grand Opera, but from now on we will present the Grand Ole Opry.” The name was stamped, and it continued to be broadcast under the same name for the next six decades.
