It's going to be a Blue Christmas - and not necessarily because of the economy. Veteran music and talk radio personality, George Woods, programs and cares for a bunch of Internet radio stations including his latest project: "Revenge of the Blue Christmas".

This particular stream features one thing: versions of "Blue Christmas". Woods says: "It’s all there- from Elvis to Etheridge, Judy Garland to Jon Bon Jovi, Lawrence Welk to Lola and the Red Hots: enough Blue Christmases to satisfy even the most hardcore Christmas music masochist."

It's an idea which first sparked in George's head about 20 years ago when he was working as the morning man for WOW-AM in Omaha, Nebraska. You can read the whole story and listen at www.radiogeorge.com.

Security at Galaxy 102.2 in Birmingham, England will most likely be upgraded after this. The Independent reported: "man was arrested...after breaking into a city centre radio station and broadcasting obscenities live on air."

President Elect Barack Obama continues to offer his brand of change. For the first time, the Democratic weekly address is not just being offered via traditional radio: it will now be on YouTube.

Presidential Radio
Although radio addresses by presidents go back as far as President Franklin Roosevelt who became known for his "fireside chats" on radio during the Great Depression years of the 1930s, the weekly addresses were begun by President Ronald Reagan in 1982. Reagan delivered 330 Saturday radio addresses and ended each one with the phrase, "Until next week, thanks for listening."

Classic Reagan Radio Gaffe
Prior to his weekly radio address on August 11 1984, Reagan uttered what is now a famous but humorous gaffe when he did not think the microphone was on. Read more and listen to it here.
