Does Anyone Remember The Radio Show "Freedom Talks"?
« on: July 02, 2016, 06:11:18 pm »
Freedom Talks were a daily show, narrated by Melvin Munn; it was done from an HL Hunt organization and was usually, I think about 15-30 minutes in length.  They actually made "records" of their shows which one could purchase.

It would always start out "This is Freedom Talk number ....."

It was a show largely symptomatic of the Cold War.

Dr. James Dobson actually worked for the organization back then as well, possibly getting his start there, or at least, someone knowledgeable told me this.

Has anyone heard Glenn Beck talk about the Fabians? Freedom Talk were talking about this in the early '70s; sometimes I wonder as to Beck's influences because he use to talk about that a lot on his show, Francis Piven I think and so on.

I read this HL Hunt authored book; and would probably like to read it again.

Some links discussing the show's speaker Melvin Munn:

This next webpage seems to be a transcript of the show:

Otherwise,  there does not seem to be a lot of information on the show.
