Oh man, how could I have forgotten to mention archive.org??

My favorite thing on there is the Old Time Radio Researcher’s Group who maintain a huge archive of radio shows produced between 1920 and the 1960s (and some from later years as well such as CBS Radio Mystery Theater).

I’ve been listening through the most well-known shows for about the last 10 years and I still haven’t even listened to them all and there are dozens of other more obscure shows!

Same here! I have a monthly donation going, and the $2 is well worth the hundreds of hours I’ve spent on it.

Hell yeah! My favorite will always be Richard Diamond. Private Investigator but I love Suspense and The Shadow as well.

Oh and Gunsmoke of course; I like the show as well but James Arness’ voice just doesn’t match William Conrad.

My old person trait is that I listen to old radio shows and watch a ton of classic movies and shows.

I’m 28 and don’t even know when I discovered this exactly but on archive.org there’s a group of people called the Old Time Radio Researchers Group who catalogue and archive all of the old radio shows. Some of the episodes sound like they could have been recorded yesterday just because they’re in such high quality.
