Radio in the 1950's involved one microphone with multiply performers and announcers.

Radio in the 1950’s was often a ballet of several announcers and performers all using the same microphone. Grant Reedstrom’s father Lloyd Reedstrom was a master at this dance and explained to Grant the difficulty and fun of live radio.
