I love gunsmoke, and have been listening to all-time radio westerns for a long time. But now the inclusion of the contemporary commercials during the show on top of the vintage commercials has ruined it for me. I give it three stars because of my love for gunsmoke. Before this, I would’ve given it five stars.

I discovered a bunch of the old radio shows on my Sirius radio classics ch. I especially love listening to William Conrad and Gunsmoke at any time so I came here hoping for more and hit the jackpot! I feel the old Radio shows definitely beat the majority of TV nowadays. I love going to Dodge at bedtime.

These episodes, especially the more adult-oriented ones (like Gunsmoke) are a great companion when I’m driving, walking around town, or just want a friendly distraction. The programs are great. And Andrew’s ability to clean up the sounds some and add interesting background is a nice plus. Thanks!

My husband and I both enjoy Gunsmoke. I had been listening to Andrew's podcast since it's inception. I appreciate his efforts to present and preserve radio programs. He chooses some programs that are traditional western fare but then throws in some "darker" radio fare like Gunsmoke which at times is film noir set in the west. I love to hear William Conrad's portrayal of Matt Dillon. I would have missed it if it weren't for this podcast.

I use to love this podcasts and would listen to it to wind down before bed. Recently there are so many commercials and some that are loud and startling. I think I will have to find something else.
