X Minus One Podcast

by Humphrey Camardella Productions

X Minus One is widely considered among the finest science fiction dramas ever produced for radio. The first 15 episodes were new versions of Dimension X episodes, but the remainder were adaptations of newly published science fiction stories by leading writers in the field, including Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, Philip K. Dick, Robert A. Heinlein, Frederik Pohl and Theodore Sturgeon, along with a few original scripts. For baby boomer's that liked The Outer Limits and The Twilight Zone and for all you Trekkies, X Minus One is the forefather of the science fiction you grew up with. You will find that it still is some of the best Science Fiction ever aired. Regardless of you age join us as we explore science fiction with the imagination of our minds and great story telling.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

These are vintage radio shows so they all have high production values -much higher quality than most podcasts. Excellent Voice talent and story arc. I especially enjoy the language used because it’s such a timestamp of its era. Each episode stands on its own. Give it a go! An excellent diversion and can provide a useful perspective regarding entertainment media. HEY Producers! You need to improve the meta-data. Provide more info beyond the title.

My kids and I loooove listening to these. The predictions about what we would all have and how we would be living is so funny. Thank you for making these available.

Stewette · Feb 2013

Take a listen, you will not be disappointed. Created in the late 50s during the heydey of Asimov style science fiction, the production values are high with talented voice actors and amusing sound effects. Some stories are more tightly plotted than others, but if you've got a long commute or just like to listen to old sci fi, you will get a great deal of enjoyment out of this old school treat.

Gargamello · Sep 2008

My first review - while listening to this in bed last night, I was motivated to share my affection. I am in my late 30s, but for some reason (probably great grandma) I LOVE old time radio. There used to be some stations on the AM that would broadcast some gems, but I don't recall this show. I also love Sci-Fi. X-Minus One combines them both in a commercial free podcast format that I absolutely love. One of my favorite podcasts by far. Get it. If you are younger and skeptical, give it a try, but try to remove the jaded glasses of today and enjoy both as sci-fi and a bit of American entertainment history.

AConant · Aug 2008

First you have to sit through their lame commercials that are horribly produced and full of digital distortion, jump cuts and outragiously bad SFX. But for them to make the claim that these old time radio productions are theirs is outright dishonest. These radio shows were produced by people at the top of their game in the 30s and 40s and NOT by Humphrey and Carmadello. Want to listen to these shows where they're are presented with the respect they deserve and without stupid commercials check out Relic Radio.

I love X Minus One, but most of these podcast files are fraught with technical glitches that make it difficult to listen to and enjoy, particularly on an iPod. You can get audio files of X Minus One that actually work at www.botar.us.
