Chuck Buell Is Here To Remind Us That Tomorrow Is INTERNATIONAL BACON DAY!

I just want to take this Brief Buell Bacon Bit in Time today to wish all Forgotten Ham Hitters a  ~~~


Because, "Everything is Better with Bacon On IT!"

There’s no Silence of the Hams when it’s International Bacon Day, obviously Me included!!!

 

But keep in mind, Bacon Naysayers say eating too much Bacon could contribute to weight gain.  Nearly 18 pounds of bacon are consumed by Americans every year! That's the equivalent to the weight of a car tire! 


Which could add a “spare tire” around one’s waist!

And, sadly, make one's Special Bacon T-Shirt "Too Small!
 

Ah, yes!  And do you remember the attached?!

Hope you have a "Big, Bad, Boss, Bacon Day" Today!

CB ( which stands for "Charlie-Buell-Bacon Boy!" )

Chuck's also got something ELSE on his mind this weekend ... 
 
With the Labor Day Weekend comes the much-anticipated Rewound Radio Fifth Labor Day Weekend Special spotlighting the Great Rockin' Radio Days of the 1960s, the 1970s and the Early 1980s!

The way Radio once was with three big, non-stop days of those memorable years of both WLS and WCFL in Chicago exactly as they were heard then! A remarkably wide variety of Individual Historical Radio Hours that'll sound remarkably "Live!" as taken from Original, Vintage Recordings that have been meticulously restored to their prime audio fidelity!  

These are Full, Hour-Long Hours, complete with all the Music, including your Favorite and Obscure Forgotten Hits, the Radio Station Jingles, the Commercials and the On-Air Radio Personalities who brought it all to the listeners of the day precisely as it sounded then!

Here's another Promotional Announcement with all the details that I was asked to voice leading up to this Event.

It all begins on Rewound Radio Saturday Morning, September 5th, at 6 AM Eastern Time and will air well past Midnight, Labor Day Monday, September 7th!

Just go to http://rewoundradio.com/ and you'll be all set!


Alexa will even play it for you just by telling her "Alexa, play Rewound Radio."


Yes, I'll be there, too, as Rewound Radio recalls a couple of my Vintage WLS Chicago Radio Hours!


If the last four years are any indication, I think you'll enjoy this Special "Rewound Radio's Labor Day Weekend 2026" Presentation!


Yours, In the Air Everywhere,
