Customer Reviews
a delight!
Relic Radio is excellent! I spend a lot of time working on the computer and my time is much happier when I have all these exciting thrillers to listen to, especially the Whistler and Suspense! Also check out The Horror! turn out the lights and have a good scare. Thank you for making work more fun.
A must..
This podcast is a definite must to add to your collection of old time redio shows. I like the quality of sound and these are great shows with very minimal advertising or host-blabbering.
Among the best of the best OTRs
Great variety of old-time radio shows can be found on this podcast. But the bonus is the audio quality. I have listened to the same shows on other OTR podcasts and for some reason, the sound is much more crisp on this site. There's a bonus too: Relic Radio also has podcasts for "thrillers" and "sci-fi" and they're all great.
