Sonic Summerstock returns with the incredible Larry Groebe and Project Audio and a very special performance!
“Sergeant Preston of the Yukon” (actually called “The Challenge of the Yukon” for most of its 16 years on the radio) was one of the greatest juvenile adventure radio series ever – part of a trinity of kids’ shows that originated from Station WXYZ in Detroit. (The others were “The Green Hornet” and “The Lone Ranger”.) It chronicled the never-ending adventure of the noble Mountie and his wonder dog Yukon King, maintaining law and order in the wilds of the frozen Northwest.
While there are nearly 700 surviving recordings of this classic show, Project Audion located a MISSING episode’s script that originally aired on May 25, 1955 — just two weeks before show ended its run. What’s more, we are delighted to feature 94-year-old Chuck Daugherty, who was actually heard in some of the original Preston series episodes during his time at WXYZ over 70 years ago. He’s part of a terrifically talented coast-to-coast cast for this exciting episode with original commercials for Quaker cereals.
