Everybody else is giving these good reviews? Moby Dick is so scratchy it's unlistenable. Love Orson Wells. Very disapointed with this.
Wonderful old time radio from the master
Really terrific stuff! I'm a long-time fan of Welle's radio work and am so grateful that these gems are finally available as podcasts. Thank you for podcasting!
What a treat!!
Being a huge Welles fan, this is like a gift that keeps on giving. I only wish I had found this earlier, missed the first ten episodes. Thanks so much for these gems.
