All round great podcast .Wonderful and jovial host in Brett. Would love to hear some more comedy shows. English comedy is the best , particularly from the 60s and 70s.Us Aussies love our comedy and would love to hear shows such as Steptoe and Son. Not sure if they were broadcast as radio shows but if available would love to hear Till death us do part, On the Buses and Bless this House. Highly recommend this Podcast
I absolutely love these podcasts, particularly Dad’s Army - I look forward to every Friday night. I think I’ll follow you on instagram & anything else? I’m old(ish) and
not too tech savvy 🤷♀️
Brilliant podcast with some really cool old time radio episodes
Really love this OTR podcast! Great content (love Dad’s Army) and Brett is a great host—keep up the good work!
This part is fantastic, from the introduction to the closing narration this guy great. He’s so happy and his voice is not intrusive. He has an excellent array of shows and with the regular schedule, you know what to look forward to.
