Author: After opening the gifts check out the Badger Benson Show for the first ever Golden George Awards! If you miss it, not to worry…all shows are available for download or playback from the show page www.blogtalkradio.com/badger-benson or here at www.badgerbenson.com – just click on the BlogTalkPlayer.
The Golden George Awards are inspired by the George Bailey character from the holiday classic “It’s A wonderful Life”, played by Jimmy Stewart. The awards are given to those people, communities and organizations that best showcase the Christmas spirit. They are the real life George Bailey’s and Bedford Falls of America!
Nominees were submitted by listeners and Badger himself. The first class in 2010 includes 12 different individuals or groups ranging from Badger’s relatives (nominated by others), to athletes, towns, churches, a group of high school students, from locally in Nebraska/Iowa and across the nation.
Hopefully it’ll be a new Christmas tradition!
