One of my goals for 2023 is to clean up the ID3 tags of my old time radio shows, particularly the shows I stream. What I usually do is the following:

 

• Artist: The series title
• Track: The episode title (if I have it. Otherwise, I’ll just use “Untitled” or the episode date if available)
• Album: Episode date (when available)

99% of my tracks have the artist and tracks filled correctly. For the album field, I’ve been lax on filling those fields. My goal for this year is to get everything filled correctly. This may not seem important, but it looks nicer to me.

I’ve been transitioning the schedule, moving certain shows around. This is my eventual schedule goal, which may change again later. All times are Central US time zone, which is currently GMT -6.

• 5:00am Breakfast shows
• 5:30am-7:00am Educational, information, and any other shows that don’t fit in the main genres I play
• 7:00am-8:00am Comedy
• 8:00am-9:00am Comedy and/or Drama
• 9:00am-8:00pm Drama, Adventure, Detective, and a bit of horror at the end of the schedule
• 8:00pm-10:00pm Variety and Music shows
• 10:00pm-5:00am Music

I’m not quite there yet, and some things may change. We’ll see how things go over time. I also may add Jean Shepherd broadcasts late at night also. It’s not exactly old time radio, but it may be some interesting listening for some.
