I put the transcript on then forward through the cigarette ads. After 35 years, they make me want one! I love the shows. Dragnet and Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar are two of my favourites, (also Suspense!)
Love this! I listen to old radio classics while doing work on the property. I am grateful to have the black screen so I can listen and fall asleep. Thank you!
Those were the days. Operators were one of the jobs that were mostly women. Secretaries were another one. How many modern secretaries can write/read short hand? The younger generation isn't even taught cursive anymore.
Too many disruptive audio glitches and, yeah, the old ads are nostalgic and even educational, but we're probably also (as now, for me personally) unwelcome when first aired. Still, I hit like. The shows were superb.
There’s Old Time Radio Researchers, channel, who plays just the half hour regular show. I played one of these and my battery died by morning. So I seen my mistake. 30 minutes, and good night Irene! Happy listening.
The old time radio channels I enjoy take the time and effort to edit out all of the old outdated cigarette advertisements. I enjoy Johnny Dollar without all of the Rexall drug store spots. If you want my time, put in the effort!!
Greetings ✨ from Florida 🐬 Thank You 🙏 for Sharing this Gem 💎

I flip my phone over, but found 30 minute programs, by then I’m well asleep. Not 8 hours.
It was interesting to hear the rather involved process that went into placing a long distance call.
Like a snapshot of the times!

@@vintagethrifter2114 that's so true 👍
Radio is a thousand times better than the garbage they put on TV today...
And there were actual people connecting the calls, not computers. 😊
Love Dragnet as a radio and tv series. Jack Webb was always good
Just found you and subscribed. Love going back to simpler times.
I found your channel today and subscribed to it today. I love the Black Screen format 😍
These flatfoots sure had loud shoes 😂
I would love Dragnet Black Screen even more without the commercials 👍
Me as well 😅
The constant squeaks and other distortions make it impossible to sleep to. These episodes are elsewhere on YT without all the annoying glitches.

Pennsylvania listing
thanks for this but an editing out of the ciggy ads would be very welcome and i for one could do without!
Love Dragnet every night for bed. But why would I need 8 hours of it?
Because u just can't get enough of Dragnet!😅
She didn't have to say a thing without a lawyer.
