Podshow has created 10 feeds comprising it’s “Old Time Radio Network.” The one that deserves our scrutiny is OTR SciFi. This is basically a stripped down version of the Spaceship Radio podcast no commentary, no interaction, just OTR. Here’s the official line:
“The Old Time Radio Network at Podshow.com presents vintage radio programs from the 30’s, 40’s and 50’s and reflects the combined efforts of its creators, Dennis Humphrey and Bob Camardella, both of whom have spent their lives as enthusiasts of early radio’s Golden Age. Their combined years of research, experience, and their extensive collections, coupled with the innovation of podcasting, have afforded a vehicle to share these efforts with the world. Having engaged in podcasting for a year and a half, the two have joined forces to form the Old Time Radio Network. As a result of their recently signed contract with Podshow, Dennis and Bob are well established in the family friendly podcasting category with such notables as I-tunes family section, and Podomatic.com. Their latest development, scheduled to launch November 1st, is a Vintage Videos, in the videocasting category which will not only increase ratings, but afford advertisers a video alternative that will surely compliment their advertising program. The Old Time Radio Network, Where The Oldies Are Still Young !”

Before posting this story I wanted to wait a bit and see what programs they were going to get. I waited and now there are about 40 shows in the feed from the likes of…
Dimension X, X-Minus One, Dark Fantasy, Black Castle, Beyond Tommorow, and shockingly Vanishing Point which is a copyrighted non-public domain CBC Radio series from the 1980s.
