I've become addicted to Radio Classics on Sirius XM. I don't listen to all the programs and the main host is annoying as hell (it sounds like someone has their hands around his throat when he speaks) but it's opened up an entirely new world for me that I missed since I as born in the late '50's. It has certainly filled in the blanks for me when it comes to certain sayings my grandfather or even my mother would occasionally trot out, I betcha. It really does emphasize how much your own imagination can contribute to the enjoyment of radio. Quite a great alternative to today's TV.

The Twilight Zone radio dramas (that can be found online) are excellent. Theatre of the mind.

What were some of your favorite "notes" Standards and Practices over the years?

Off-topic, but I actually like those Progressive commercials where Flo offers to go talk with struggling actor "Tom" Hamm and then does.

I listened to approximately the last year or two of "CBS Radio Mystery Theater" in 1981-1982 and was quite sad when it was cancelled.

Oh look - someone has every single one of them available to stream or save as MP3. https://www.cbsrmt.com/
