Dispatches from Maine

Just another person of little note writing about ordinary things. That I reside in Maine is icing on the cake.

Podcasting Old Radio Shows

My addiction to podcasts is quite serious. I even got a shout-out from Kris and Betsy of Croncast fame for enjoying their hilarious show while on a fishing trip in West Forks, ME. The podcasts I listen to regularly include: Not Your Usual Bollocks, The Sounds in My Head, Celtic Music News, Good Beer Show, Croncast, Wizard News Radio, Catholic Insider, Sci-Fi Retrospectives, Slice of Sci-Fi, Hometown Tales, The Ol' Hippie, ZenCast, Live Ireland, and MommyCast. The only time I even listen to the radio now is to enjoy a Red Sox game.

To this substantial list of shows two have been added: Radio Memories and Superman. The Radio Memories podcast includes great shows from the 1940s and 1950s. I have been listening to both the SciFi and Detective shows will great interest. What a fine job they did back then and with such limited tools. The recent Philip Marlowe show was excellent! The Superman show is from 1939 onward and is serialized as short, ten minute episodes each day. This week the storyline is the theft of an "atomic ray" weapon. This too is a show worth listening to. I look forward to more material being drawn out of the archives, perhaps The Shadow?
