The comedy duo of Ralph Dumke (left) and Eddie East were pioneers in New York City and Chicago radio broadcasts in the late 1920s. They became national radio stars on NBC Radio from 1930-1937, hosting a daily 15-minute afternoon program, "Sisters of the Skillet.” This was a parody of radio programs for housewives, during which they performed comedy sketches, jokes, and musical numbers.
"After experimenting with several types of broadcasts, they hit on their humorous imitation of women broadcasting to women. With that their fame was assured… Their talk, wisecracks and tomfoolery are spontaneous – one of the few extemporaneous programs on the air." – Scammon (Kansas) News-Herald, July 31, 1931

The NBC Radio Studio at Sunset and Vine was an art deco shrine.
It opened in 1938, but only existed for 27 years.
It was knocked down replaced with a midcentury bank designed by Millard Sheets.

Love that Alastor is very Hannibal Lector Coded, but very specifically NBC Hannibal's season 3 Hannibal, who after being caught and exposed has no one to impress or fool about what sort of terrible person he is, has regressed back to a very immature childish mindset/pattern of behaviors, constantly taunting those around him and flaunting his sadistic side.
Makes me wanna know what Al was like when he still had a reputation and appearance to keep up.

Theory time:
I'm wondering what kinda role that Alastor might have on Charlie's development like will he influence her? I think it's weird that Alastor and Lilith both have been gone for seven years, maybe Lilith asked Alastor to keep an eye on her daughter and help protect her, im not sure. But that's not the point. But the question is what does Alastor gain from this?
Well he claimed he was bored, so maybe he saw Charlie on the interview and saw those quick flashes of her demon form. Maybe he was interested in what extent her powers go. I think Alastor has the same mindset as Hannibal Lector does with Will Graham from the NBC show. Both are intelligent and manipulative characters, both serial killers and cannibals. Hannibal sees the potential of Will, wanting to encourage him to finally embrace his full potential, a type of potential that Will is extremely hesitant to unleash.
Alastor seems to have the same mindset, he wants to unlock Charlie's potential, a type of potential she also works hard to conceal. Not at all say that this is gonna be a romance like Hannibal and Will had. I'm just pointing out that they both have similar thought processes.
Honestly what sparked this was listening to the fan made song, Hell of A Team. The line that caught my attention was Charlie: "get it in your head, you're never gonna change me."
Alastor: "no, I only want to set you free."
But that's just a theory, something sparked from a song that isn't considered cannon. I could be totally wrong, I just wanted to put my theory down before I forget lol

Please consider:
Hannigram post-fall in Cuba. Both can speak Spanish. Hannibal comes across this song one day (perhaps on the radio while he's cooking?) and it reminds him that not only did he get rejected by Will - he gave up his freedom for him as well, only to find out later that Will actually got married while he was locked up and waiting for him:
