What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

REMOVE THE ANNOYING HIGH VOLUME THEATRE ORGAN SECTIONS!!! The music alone is bad enough, but the way that the organ volume was boosted way above the dialog volume makes Philo Vance and Boston Blackie, and any other with the cheesey soap opera type interludes, unlistenable, imho. It would be easy enough to simply edit out these sections using AI audio tools available now. If you want to leave the organ in for authenticity, at least LOWER THE VOLUME of these sections so they don't scream out at a higher volume than the dialog.

Really enjoying these episodes but my favorite is The Saint with Vincent Price. He’s funny! Such a different role from his later horror movie characters. Thank you for posting!

Petsalwaysrule · Aug 2026

Really enjoying these old radio shows! They are clean and classy and downright funny! Thank you for putting these out there!

The ad in the middle of the show is *startlingly loud* because volume is turned up to hear the show clearly. Can we please move the ad to start or finish and not smack dab in the middle? Startles tf out of me every time! 😅

New ads during the middle of the episodes has forced me to stop listening. Beginning or end in fine, not bluntly in the middle.

I downloaded some Johnny Dollar episodes. The recording is playing too fast on the two episodes I tried to listen to. Too distracting to listen to a whole episode. His voice pitch is too high due to the fast playback speed.
