I caught this wonderful story on NPR this morning:
https://www.npr.org/2025/02/01/nx-s1-5261741/how-one-teens-project-in-1947-led-to-a-rare-collection-of-sports-broadcast-recordings
This 93 year old fellow in Indiana has been recording, collecting and cataloging classic radio sportscasts since 1947. You can probably guess what he considers one the best radio sports broadcasts of all time. The story is IMO worth the seven-minute listen, but if you want to jump to the part relevant to Cal fans, you can start listening at around 5:20.
