If you're an old retiree (like me) who enjoyed listening to radio shows such as
Jack Benny, Mysterious Traveler, Inner Sanctum, Nick Carter, Phillip Marlowe, et
al, when you were a kid or listening to radio shows that were broadcast by
AFRS\AFRTS while you were overseas, you can still listen to the shows via the
many web sites that stream Old Time Radio (OTR) shows.

 

Following are a few of the sites that stream OTR shows each day.  (During this
holiday season, many of the sites are currently streaming special nostalgic
holiday radio shows.)

   

    Relic Radio <http://relicradio.com/otr/stream/>

 

    Radio Spirits <http://radiospirits.com/> (login required)

 

    OTR Now <http://www.otrnow.com/otrnow/index.htm>

 

    Antitoch OTR <http://radio.macinmind.com/>

 

    AM600 Conyers GA <http://radio.bobmerritt.com/>

 

    Yesterday USA <http://www.yesterdayusa.com/>

 

You can get links to other OTR sites by searching for "streaming OTR," "OTR
shows," etc., or you can visit the Graymatters OTR Streaming Links at
http://www.angelfire.com/mi/lifespring/page6.html (this site provides a list of
links to OTR sites).

 

If you're interested in a particular show or character, the OTR Archives web
site is available at http://www.archive.org/details/oldtimeradio.  This site has
copies of just about every OTR show that was ever aired.  The radio shows can be
listened to while you're online or downloaded for your MP3 player, iPhone, etc.

 

Hopefully, the above OTR info is useful and it doesn't cause young retirees to
leave the mailing list <LOL>.

 

Thank you and Merry Christmas to all,
