These old shows are entertaining and fun but the best part is because there’s no picture, the listener has to pay attention and use his imagination. You have to focus actively rather than be the passive recipient of a TV program. The absence of “woke” messaging is another big plus. These shows...Read full review »

Relic Radio is the best Old Time Radio podcast. The curation is excellent and having the genres separated exclusively allows me to binge on the ones I enjoy, with zero duds. I don’t usually review podcasts but this one deserves special consideration.

It is better in so many ways than TV, it is so imaginative and exciting. I listen most nights, I would like to say that it helps me sleep 😴Yes relax but not really sleep as the stories are so good. Please have a listen and you will know what I am saying. ☺️

I kept my XM Radio for several years just so I could listen to these shows on Radio Classics when I travel. Now that I’ve found this podcast, I can listen to the shows I like whenever I choose. Goodbye, XM!!

So good, timeless entertainment, thanks a million!

The stories are awesome but the voice of the main protagonist is so annoying. He clearly has a deviated septum or a serious cold in most of the episodes. The sinus problem alone would be one thing but it’s combined with what sounds like a Chicago accent. I can’t get the two out of my mind. If not...Read full review »

My dad played old radio shows on our road trips when I was a kid. I think that’s why I like podcasts so much. Thank you for making my favorite shows available! Especially Suspense, Escape, and Lights Out.

Love these old shows. Thanks so much for doing this podcast.
Trilolight via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/28/18
Not only are these shows well written and produced but they also paint a picture of the worries at the start of the Cold War. The voice acting from this era of radio is amazing. They really do a great job of making you feel the suspense and drama of the stories. If you have interest in this time...Read full review »

I have subscribed to many of his radio shows. They are always fun, thrilling, and my favorite thing to put on while I work on my crafts. Young, like me who has only heard tales of the golden age of radio, or middle age, when you can temper the programs coming back on in the 1970’s, or if you are...Read full review »

I have really been enjoying the shows. The sound quality is good on most shows. Our host is very consistent, says very little and let’s the show take the center stage.

The audio quality of the episode is almost always extremely high quality and the podcast introductions and endings are brief, informative, well-spoken and kind. This Podcast is truly professionally done. Thanks.
FatherTimeLtd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/21/17
Definitely worth subscribing to if you like the genre (as I do)... the audio is always good, and the stories and characters are always colorful!

I absolutely love Relic Radio!!!!
Katey11998 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/18/12
I suppose it says something when my least favorite of the Relic Radio lineup still receives five stars for quality and consistency, and when I still look forward to every new episode like a kid unwrapping birthday presents. I admit I like The Horror and Case Closed better than this podcast, but...Read full review »

I love the shows. Suspense is my favorite, along with Escape. Would love to hear some Whistler episodes!

I really enjoy these old time radio dramas!
luckygirlie21 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/22/12
Relic Radio Thrillers has a great line up of classic radio shows to please your mind. I listen to them at home, on the road and at work with my Ipod. I would recommend them to any one who wants to get away with a great program at their leisure.

Love them only wish I had more of them
pattsta via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/07/11
This podcast brings a great selection of short, well written thrillers - many of which are still exciting and "work" well. Most stand up well by comparison with more recent work. I don't like the ads though - there are too many positive perspectives on cigarette consumption for an...Read full review »

Love these programs. Great host who allows you to listen right away. Stories stick with you the next day since you are seeing everything play out in your head vs on a screen. Keep em coming.

I work a long nite and these are great to speed me thru that time. I never knew these existed until I accidentally happened on the podcast. I love being able to talk with my grandparents about these shows. They get so excited to talk about their favorite shows. The host and quality are...Read full review »

There are lots of old radio show podcasts, but the ones from Relic Radio can't be beat in the way that they set you up for a truly fun experience (rather than the usual drowsy "trip down memory lane" approach). Great opening theme, great introduction, and well-chosen episodes.Read full review »

I'm such a fan of Old Time Radio, and therefore appreciate the efforts of Relic Radio for providing exceptional programs for my listening pleasure. I particularly enjoy "The Horror," "Thrillers" and "The Great Gildersleeve" podcasts. Hats off to the producers of Relic...Read full review »

I spend most of my time in my studio painting and have tested out every single Podcast/vintage radio selection available on iTunes. Relic Radio (especially Old time Thrillers) is the best. No crummy commercials, just a very clever host and lots of great radio programs. I'd love it if they...Read full review »

High quality, superior effort typical for this podcaster. I am grateful for this, and all his other podcasts,and what they do to help keep OTR alive. Well done!
Masipag999 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/13/09
I downloaded these on the off-chance that they might be of a bit of interest when I was bored. What a discovery!! Little 'bite-sized' stories which are as good as any audiobook, and they are free!! Give them a go, you have nothing to lose!!Read full review »

I'm a big fan of "the Horror", Relic Radio's other podcast, and this should be a great companion podcast to it. I enjoyed the first epoisode, and if it's as well kept up as "The Horror", then it's gonna be a great selection of great old shows. Thanks Relic Radio!Read full review »
