September 22, 1957: The final airing of Radio Workshop

  September 22, 1957: Radio Workshop on CBS lasted only for 18 months with critics declaring it "ingenious radio programming." While ingenious, the show didn't last due to television. The workers on the show were dedicated to the last ditch effort to keep old time radio alive. It took sometimes up to four men and five hours to create sounds that would only be heard for 30 seconds on the show.
