This has been around for a while, and seems impossible to obtain as a
DVD or streaming, based on my efforts. I'd love to see it, but we seem
to be stuck with whatever local stations do. There is the book about the
NBD, "The Hayloft Gang," which I recently got and read; pretty
interesting, especially in what it says about Northern influences on
these radio shows. A local friend of mine, now 89, listened religiously
to the NBD with his family, I think not the WLS broadcast but rather the
network segments.
