Join the lifelong television enthusiast identified as the frequency BAF in a journey through various decades of that medium where the reception came from the antenna. The episodes cover shows, genres, personalities and how not just antennas but how audiences have received them through the airwaves over time.

The Opening Theme: Going But Not Forgotten?
BAF explores a nostalgic subject for many when it comes to television programs - the opening theme. The early programs focused on the announcement of the show and its primary sponsor(s) but over time has helped introduce the setting and characters using music and visuals in different ways to set American audiences up to watch the program at hand. BAF addresses the question later in the episode if the presence of memorable themes are just that - memories?
