I adore this podcast! I always wanted to listen to the old radio programs but had no idea how many there were before I stumbled onto this podcast. Now I’m hooked for life! It’s my favorite thing to have on in the background when I’m painting.

The host selects two great episodes to put together every time. Appreciate that these treasures are easily accessible by podcast to introduce to my kids.

Always nice to listen to!

Hate the self promoting intros to Every show . These old shows are public domain. You can find ALL of them on archive.org. They take them and then try to sell them and use every episode to advertise. Lame .

What a brilliant idea to bring these retro radio dramas to the podcast world. A second life for golden age radio. Very well done, exciting, suspenseful stories. Highly recommended to all.
Jvg74 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/01/18
The quality of the sound does vary from show to show, but this is hugely entertaining. It's a fabulous trip through time to see what life was like then. The adverts are sensational! Sometimes I just want to go out there and smoke the latest (now unavailable) brand, even though I haven't smoked...Read full review »

As a huge fan of classic radio, this podcast is beyond awesome to me. It's introduced me to some I hadn't heard before & lets me listen to favorites again. The programs are great but I must admit I do get an extra kick out of the commercials-they are so bad they're good!Read full review »

Pairing two shows together works really well and the introductions are always informative. Nice work.
LJ Romanoff via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/29/17
The audio quality of episodes is consistently good, and the host keeps his intros (of each episode) short and simple. Definitely worth subscribing to (as is the host's other podcast, "Relic Radio")Read full review »

Raised by my grandfather who was blind and who subsequently had audio entertainment delivered to the house, I grew up listening to all the OTR shows that he had enjoyed when he was younger. I was thrilled in recent years to come across the vast selection curated here by Relic Radio. While I enjoy...Read full review »

I love radio mystery and these are some of the best
the tuesday night jammer via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/07/16
Great, riveting who done it mysteries back from when late night radio was awesome! Thank you for bringing this back into my life!
Reaper- via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/31/14
Could it get any better than this? Mysteries that are acted out for us, and really good stories and actors, for the most part. My motto, for years, has been that the 3 best things about the 20th century were: Radio, Hot Showers, and Velcro. (Bring it, if you disagree!) (Microwave ovens and cell...Read full review »

Monster book lover via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/13/12
I used to fall asleep to old radio shows when I was 6 yrs old. Turns out, 20-ish years later, I still do. I'm saddened to finally realize there won't be anymore, I hope to enjoy them as long as possible. Thanks so VERY much!

I have been a fan since my first iPod. I can hardly wait for Wednesday!
jjsteich via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/03/12

Schuby135 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/18/12
I stumbled across Relic Radio some while back, and I've been slowly adding more and more of the shows to my podcast library. I held off on Case Closed for a while, thinking it would be little more than cheesy serials about over-the-top detectives. I'm really glad I changed my mind. ...Read full review »

These are great. My Flatscreen fried from the inside so I needed some form of entertainment when I was laying down to sleep. Decided to try these and they are great. I love the sci-fi and Case Closed shows.Casey Crime Photographer and The Saint are my favorites.More Vincent Price PLEASE! I want...Read full review »

Fantastic I love it and the Ripleys believe it or not in the middle of the two Shows I love all the relic radio podcasts They are really good Thank you
Timerod via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/22/12
Yes,I agree this is the best format of OTR's. I have been a fan for years. The C.C. Series always put's out as good a copy and as clear a copy as Possible Thanking you,thanks.

I'm such a fan of OTR crime shows, and the format of this podcast makes it even better. The believe it or not segment is a great interlude too!Read full review »
BluesCityJoe via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/16/11
Case Closed has great crime stories from before the forensics teams could come in and wrap up a case with a single hair and investigators had to really pound the pavement to get the job done. I highly recommend this to any one looking for something different to listen to at home, on the road or...Read full review »
AbVDB via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 11/14/11
Each show presents a pair of recordings from classic radio detective noir. Light relief is provided by snippets of Believe it or Not at the half-way point. A great podcast that lets the drama speak for itself. Step into the time machine and re-live the (not so) innocent days of the early cold...Read full review »
podiophillia via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/02/11
This series is as well put together as The Horror! -- if the host has any bias, it's hard to find. Thank you for finding Barrie Craig... I used to see William Gargan (sp?) in anti-smoking ads as a kid and hearing him in his acting prime brings some sort of karmic relief. Candy Matson is...Read full review »

These OTR detective stories are just great. They take me back to a wonderful time in my life and I always loved talk radio. These episodes are very diverse so I get to hear all of the old time detectives. Not so much mayhem as todays tv detectives, love the plots especially Johnny Dollar, Nero...Read full review »

One full hour of top rated, commercial-free Old Time Radio. I look forward to each weekly installment. Subscribe to this podcast, you will not regret it!
Mar_tie via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/25/10
I wasn't around for the glory days of OTR, but Case Closed still manages to give me a sense of nostalgia for the time period. Great material, well handled without a lot of additional fluff!Read full review »

I love the host of this and the other Relic Radio programs ;) But, besides that, I NEVER thought I would get into the detective dramas (outside of Sam Spade, of course), but this podcast has be hooked! I get all giddy whenever I see a new one on my board. Thank you for compiling such a great...Read full review »

A great selection of shows with introductions kept short and to the point! I enjoy the Ripleys and think the host has the perfect tone in keeping with the shows. My only complaint is that I haven't been able to download all the old episodes of this Podcast (a technical problem perhaps?). I...Read full review »
