  • Fun show

    My main concern when listening to old time radio shows is the quality of the audio of the show. With The Shiver Show, the audio quality is superb, clean and clear. The hosts are great while discussing the featured each week and it’s just a good time listening and relaxing to. A nice production and presentation all around.
