On Feb 22nd, 3AW celebrated it's 90th birthday.  This podcast contains stories of its beginnings, football coverage, its ratings highs and lows, its stars, its talkback history, and some snippets that we didn't get time to put to air.

Prior to 1967 talkback radio was not actually legal. So when the laws changed, so did 3AW.  It embraced it then, and never looked back.

Already a star on 3KZ, 3AW were smart enough to grab Norman Banks when he quit 3KZ in 1952.  Norman would become 3AW's first Chief Football caller, and first Talkback Host.

History shows that during times of tragedy, the public turn to the radio. 3AW's recent enourmous success during covid is a classic example.  But it was first noticed in 1983 during the aftermath of the Ash Wednesday bushfires.  IT is testament to the hard work of the producers, presenters and newsroom that the public turns to 3AW
