A long, long time ago in a galaxy very similar to ours.... It all began near Hartford, Connecticut when Ed Brouder started taping local radio stations in the 1960s. He was - and is - most interested in airchecks from WDRC and WPOP. He's never yet found an aircheck of Colonel Cal Kolby on Big D, or Joey Reynolds on the New WPOP; have you? Ed's ears perk up when rare Hartford airchecks surface. Check Ed's Hartford tribute sites. |

| Ed's broadcast career began in 1972. Early on he spent a summer ringing Nutmeg State doorbells looking for candy bars from the M&M/Mars company for a WDRC promotion. The Man From Mars nickname stuck and that's what he called his audio production studio when it opened in 1981. |  |

When he's not dubbing airchecks he can be found producing commercials and radio documentaries like the one which earned a prestigious George Foster Peabody Award in 1976 for WGIR Manchester, N.H. Today, Ed keeps his hand in radio part time. New Hampshire hears him five days a week as morning drive traffic reporter at 95.7 WZID and news editor at AM 1370 WFEA. |
