Beginning in 1988, Riders In The Sky were the stars of "Riders Radio Theater", a weekly radio show written by Fred LaBour and Steve Arwood (now going by the stagename "Texas Bix Bender") that was essentially the "Tumbleweed Theater" television show minus the "B-Western" films. The half-hour show was taped at the Tennessee Performing Arts Center in Nashville, but later moved to Cincinnati, Ohio. The weekly show was canceled in 1995, but later came back as occasional specials beginning in 1998.
