from the local library which has old radio programs/drama's. It is pretty cool. There are several different shows featured, like the original War of the Worlds brodcast, Abbott & Costello, The Chase Samborn Hour, Jack Benny, The Adventures of Superman, Suspense featuring Sorry Wrong Number just to say a few. It's 13 total cassettes and all. I have been really enjoying it.

Check your local library if you like this stuff.

It's called, The 60 greatest Old-Time Radio Shows of the 20th Century.

Pretty cool stuff so far.

I listened to Hot Zone by Richard Preston driving across west Texas one time, scared the shiite right out of me.

You can download thousands of those kind of shows from www.archive.org.

I've just finished listening to the Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar serials. They're really, really cool.

Another place to get plenty of free downloads is www.zootradio.com .

You have to register to download, but they've got a messageboard & it's kind of fun looking around.
