Thank you 'mr/ms' for this channel..youmake my lil miserable life a bit better !! ❤😊😅😅

Really terrific! 🎉

the good old days

Thank you for sharing this old radio program. It's kind of cool to hear old-time radio actors Santos Ortega and Leon Janney still doing radio this late in their careers.

Loved the TV show in syndication in the 70's, Patrick Mcnee and Diana Rigg. Sò fun. Thanks so much!

Love Nero Wolfe. Sydney Greenstreet was my favorite. Thanks so much!

What a nice collection of shows, thank you for all your efforts and time, to bring these shoes to us. I am very thankful. M. 😅. IL USA

So fun to hear this!

Thanks again for these Avengers programmes, really enjoying them!

Sydney Greenstreet was it one of a kind actor.

A Pail of Air was actually one of my favorite adaptations, though I don't remember reading Lieber's original story, so I don't know what liberties were taken, if any. Having the boy narrate the story, rather than the father, provides an interesting point of view. Since Bud knows nothing of the world before the disaster, he has no basis for recognizing how that world is so different from what he has always known, and that colors his attempt to understand what is happening now. It's an interesting approach to bring across this terrifying new world. The only thing that really irritated me was "Sis's" proto-valley girl attitude. The boy has no understanding of the world beforehand - so why is SHE such an embodiment of a 50s "I care nothing, I love my hair and clothes" depiction of girls on radio and TV of the time? In the 1960s movie adaptation of The Time Machine, Weena has an odd obsession out of nowhere near the end of the film, asking how girls' hairstyles looked in the Time Traveler's time, but, of course, what is depicted is a 1960s style, not an 1899 style. It was the one jarring moment I had with the movie, and it's the same jarring moment writ large in this episode. SIs has no real part in the development of the story except to act scared when the Nest is discovered. They could have removed her character completely, and the story would have been far stronger. But even with her character, A Pail of Air works well with X Minus One's real strength of creating a unique world and building on it. Lulungameena and the Bradbury adaptations are also good examples of that.

Lots of gaudy patter in this one And there's Chris Eubank the British boxer :-)

I grew up in the 60s when TV had taken over for radio. That early TV stuff was pretty cheesy and really can’t compare quality wise to this older radio. It took a while for TV to get to this good.

That was surprisingly entertaining

Seriously one of my favourite X Minus One episodes!

Love it.

Skulking Permit was my favorite of the X Minus One comedies. Robert Sheckley was totally insane, wasn't he? 🤣🤣 The idea of these guys trying to create a typical small town environment without any clue what that entails is glorious. And, of course, this all symbolized everyone's fears in the 1950s. I love the rationalizations the Mayor kept making to justify his decisions, and then kinda to escape the consequences of those decisions. "Now wait, Tom! You can't murder me! I'm not the Mayor anymore! I'm now a General! And murdering a General is MUTINY!" Wendell Holmes as the Mayor/General is a little panicky in a couple of places, and he shouldn't be. No one should have a clue what the consequences of murder are, and so no one should have any fear about BEING murdered. But that's a minor point. The only weird thing here is that there are no females in the main cast, though considering how the Mayor was interpreting how your typical small town should be, maybe that's all for the best. 😂 And I always enjoyed the music soundtrack on X Minus One, especially from this episode. I ripped a lot of the music a while back for my mp3 player. The music is so much fun.

Definitely one of the weirder episodes on X Minus One. The solution to the problem is ... getting drunk as a skunk. But it's a lot of fun regardless. It's another Simak story focusing on the character of "Bat Ears Brady," and I really don't want to know how he got THAT nickname! Still, it's an interesting character, and he keeps you interested in the story. But there is no way this would get on the air today.

Thanks for uploading this series. 😊

So this is where Terry Nation of Blake's 7 got the idea for the hand weapons connected by a cable to the operator :-)

Nice, subbed

Orson Welles was the boy genius of the airwaves.

1:01 smack

Walter Wanger was my Mothers Client in Law, Judge Helen Sherry House was decorated like the Casbah,, at five we lived near the Garden of Allah off Sunset, we watched the Movie the Garden of Allah at the Oreiental in 53, then Orson in later years would sit in a Black suit at the beverly Hills hotel, and showed me how to fix my broken watch as he held it up to the light and touched it with a magical coin, Adbentures at the Memories of the Beverly Hills Hotel.

Awesome 😊

Orson Welles was a genius in his younger years . Citizen Kane probably , maybe the best film of all time. Thank you for allowing me to finally hear his excellent legendary radio plays. Pure class. It`s a crime the way the studios destroyed him. I often think how many more masterpieces he could have produced if left alone like he was with Citizen Kane.

The background audio is quite distracting.

I do enjoy these much

fun stuff

Omfg, Orson Welles playing Julius Caesar, I so want to hear this! 😂

The only thing wrong with it is I couldn't click like twice. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Absolutely wonderful, amazingly awesome.

I've been studying my favorite and greatest president ever Abraham Lincoln for years, I have read many books, watched many movies and have immersed myself in the history of this man, and I'm telling you this is very authentic, this is almost exactly what happened when the Insurrection started, this is very well done. The only thing Orson Welles got wrong is Abraham Lincoln had a high squeaky voice. But the ethos of Abraham lincoln, the soul of Abraham Lincoln, he channeled Abe.

Orson Wells was one of the most interesting individuals the world has ever produced.

Sadly, very poor sound quality.

very good, I do enjoy the hard boiled detective stories, these along with those by Raymond Chandler and Mickey Spillane are top fun and a welcome vacation to another time and place, a retro-noir escape :)

love the Thin Man, both in literature and film, and now radio

love these old radio programs, Orson Wells is always fun to listen to as are all the old mystery programs

great

Great introduction. Fun time. Been having a fun time with radio lately. As a kid I loved the Avengers in syndication in the 70's. Patrick McNee and Diana Rigg were two of my heros as a child. I thought they were so sophisticated and cool, and yes like super heros. Part Batman and part James Bond, only Emma Peel and John steed. Clever, funny, and formidable. Here from beginning to end terrific rich voices full of color.

Love these ❣️ Thank you.
