Diary8888A look back to simpler times…It’s old-fashioned radio with talented actors, reminding us of those whose spirit will forever be with us through these great programs.
-
SwicegirlBetter than Dragnet ;)It’s good..
-
LA in SF CAHORRIBLE, RACIST AND GLORIFIES KILLING CHINESE PEOPLEThis is a terrible show and should be taken down! How Does CBS and Apple Podcasts allow a show about how “anyone would kill a Chinese person because they’re meaningless!!” Wow. Just Wow.
-

-
Mildre's MarieExcellentOne of the best of OTR! If you don’t like a particular episode keep listening. This should appeal to a wide variety of tastes. LOVE “The Quiet Man” with Ann Sothern. Give this podcast a chance.

Tante143LOVE THESE OLD TIME RADIO SHOWS!Reminds me of when I was a kid listening to my radio next to my bed at night! The shows were already 40 years old then!!! They scared me then and they are VERY ENTERTAINING now. Sure they’re dated but that’s some of the fun of listening. They’re where Podcasts came from...My VERY FAVE are the CBS Radio Mysteries.
-
Coco Chanel Coco 143GoodGood but not as good as Dragnet.

Motoracn116Mystery Science TheatreLove these podcasts. I can remember driving to grandmas on Friday nights and dad listening. I was scared then but now love the memories while listening. Thank you
-
KelzsterrMemories with DadAs a child my dad would put us to bed and play Radio Mystery Theater. He has since passed but now I can listen once again and be with him in spirit #happyheart!
-
TriasterJust found these!Love it! I used to listen to the creaking doors and EG Marshall’s radio voice back when I was in 6th grade in the 70’s on my little transistor radio. The CBS Radio Mystery Theatre would play at 10pm and end around 11 pm once a week. I’d fall asleep with it playing in my ear. Every so often I’d force myself to stay up and listen to the endings. The next day be so tired in class by the afternoon. Now I am retired and can listen to them on my iPhone before I go to bed with no worries about time. 🙂
-
Fauxreal222Listen to them every night!Love love love these, every single one. So glad there’s a podcast that makes them available!
-
Lew_1CBS radio theaterI Can’t believe I found it I use to listen as A youth ever night at 10:30 on local radio in Chicago and STILL love listening now.... That background music though love it....
-
USMaleLove of the past radio storiesI absolutely love this show and this type of intertainment anytime. I so wish that these radio shows where kept up to date with new stories. Thanks for the wonderful stories that take you to a better time. They sure don't make radio intertainment like these anymore, a real shame and our lost.
-

-

-
RougeherringGreat EpisodesGreat collection of radio classics.
-
Rmf------Glad to see my old favorites.I have been listening to cbs mystery theater for several years. I listened to it at night to help with my racing thoughts that made falling asleep very difficult. The shows are for the most part really good and interesting. They are like an old friend when I can't sleep.
-

Bigswede6030Turn off the TVAbsolutely great. I can remember lying on the floor listening to the Philco radio. Your imagination takes over, you are transported into another time and place. Thank you for saving these programs, for we who have our sight and those who do not.
-
5brownsruleSpectacu...what?Most of these are amazing. I love having these on my iPod. However, some are too dark/stupid/ridiculous/full of commercials. But i take it with a grain of salt. It's goo, clean, fun. For the most part...ha ha ha....
-
KldhaksksSooo happy to have found these!Free, fabulous, fun. Great variety. Thank you for this amazing selection!!
-
Icon7888Excellent Old-time Radio TheaterI absolutely LOVE this radio drama! Thank you so much for providing it! I had been writing a tenured radio station to allow their old dramas to return! They haven't! So, I was glad when I discovered this!
-
kwellisExcellent PodcastThis is an excellent podcast. My only sorrow is that it hasn’t been updated in 4 months and I’ve run out of episodes to listen to.
-
BigPapaPGreat!Really entertaining. I love to listen before bed-- I hope I don't get too spooked to sleep =D
-
SoapCrafterFirst time & I'm hookedListened to "Dead For A Dollar" & I got soooo hooked! I'm subscribed to a lot more Podcasts, I love them all. Luv iTunes Audio Podcast, thanks :-)
-
bluberlinAwesome!Glad I found this podcast. I love radio theatre, mysteries and horror especially, and I have listened to other radio mystery/horror theatre podcasts that just did not have such high quality, well written stories. While many other podcasts of this nature feature stories that have me either rolling my eyes or rolling with laughter at the beyond ludicrous farce of a plot ( not that I'm blaming the people compiling them for the writing). Yet still it is advertised as a horror/mystery and not a comedy. I can can honestly say though, that the stories featured here are so engaging and well executed that I have more than once found myself gripped in suspense, or fear and checking over my shoulders in a dimly lit room. I am more than delighted in never having to fear when select an episode, because they are all pretty excellent...so far. :) P.S. more Inner Sanctum please those are great, especially the host.
-
MightyGackHeyHey I just reviewed And this is crazy But here's an awesome podcast So try it maybe? KWUR Theater of the Air Awesome radio theater you will fall in love with!

hawkayGet your kids to listen!!Imagine a couple of teenagers happily listening to these radio shows while doing chores.... IT HAPPENED! The shows proved so interesting that they were absolutely riveted to them and now pick out the evening "ole timer". Try this with your kids. AWESOME! Hawkay

OldTimeRadioFanI can't believe all the free shows this place gives outOver 3,000 totally free mystery shows in .mp3 format. No download limit. All free.

No donation is required for blind users. There's an active old time radio forum to discuss the shows too. 5 Stars, all the way!
