Really interesting. Kind of wild some of these shows are originally from the 30s. If you're a fan of the weird, paranormal or macabre then this is right up your alley. No filler with excellent sound quality. Definitely worth a listen to change things up. Old Time Radio is where it's at, great work 👍🏻👍🏻
