Miss the podcasts, Bob. Keep doing what you are doing.
I enjoy it a lot. I guess I don't know what the others are referencing regarding commercials. I don't seem to have those on my phone -- just captivating old timey radio programs like The Blue Beetle, Dragnet, Sherlock Holmes, Cloak and Dagger, The Great Gildersleeve and many other favorites.
I also share what others are saying about the commercials. Witch is a shame as I love these old time detective story's and such
Love it. Cannot get better quality content.
Good stories but the commercials, now often at the beginning and end of the podcast, are ugly ! It takes away from the enjoyment and the old time feel and the great feeling of listening to something that is in the public domain and free. The team of H/C seem to be taking over more and more of the podcast sites much to the detriment of our listening pleasure. We often used to listen to these in a "stream" but the commercials ruin this. We try to stick with Botar, Relic Radio and some of the others who haven't been gobbling up sites for their commercial gain. So mixed reviews.
There it is! Nothing but the finest programs ever produced. So many shows at one time. What a selection to choose from! A true living history lesson for the taking.
I originally subscribed to hear Old Time Radio, as I love the genre, but the commericals/political commentary are unnecessary and take away from the work.
