In January 2022 we presented the Suspense Radio Bundle, an all-new offer of classic Old-Time Radio dramas of suspense and crime from the Golden Age of Radio, 1942-56. These dozens of half-hour episodes — tales of true crime, sinister plots, international intrigue, and occult weirdness — have been lovingly remastered and re-engineered by publisher Nathan and Evan to sound crisp and new. Re-live history with these imaginative and entertaining OTR thrillers, starring leading stage and film actors of the day, from Suspense, Escape!, The Weird Circle, Crime Classics, and Dangerous Assignment.
There were eleven episodes in our Suspense Radio Sampler (retail value $33) as DRM-free MP3 audio files, including three tales from “radio’s outstanding theater of thrills,” Suspense; three true-crime docudramas from Crime Classics; and five hot scoops featuring two-fisted reporter Randy Stone on Chicago’s Night Beat.
Our Complete Collection added twenty-nine more episodes worth an additional $84, including seven more tales well-calculated to keep you in Suspense, seven more Crime Classics, chilling tales from The Weird Circle and Escape!, and the globetrotting missions of Dangerous Assignment.
You can hear thousands of complete low-fidelity episodes from hundreds of OTR series at the Internet Archive and on fan sites like Old Time Radio Downloads and Old Radio World.
Ten percent of each payment (after gateway fees) went to this offer’s designated charity, the Internet Archive. The Internet Archive is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit library of millions of books, movies, software, music, websites, and more. The Archive is building a digital library of Internet sites and other cultural artifacts, including thousands of OTR episodes.
