We are working our way through the archives from more than 25 years of Pipedreams broadcasts. Making this material available on the internet is a time-consuming process. Many early programs have never been available online and must be transferred from analog reel-to-reel tapes. Other shows must have their online audio upgraded, as the technology for streaming audio has advanced greatly from the time those shows were first made available.
NOTE: in our early broadcasts, as a promotional tool, we offered a ‘free quarterly program brochure’ that was mailed to anyone who requested it. Those brochures were discontinued in 1995 and since then our ongoing program listings have been made available through this website. Please DO NOT write to inquire about the brochure…we have none to send. :-)
