What Classic Old Time Radio Shows and Episodes Can I Find on Relic Radio?

Relic Radio is a podcast network and website dedicated to classic entertainment from radio's golden age, featuring eight podcasts that cover a range of genres. If you want to know which specific shows and episodes are available, the site organizes its content by podcast category, and each episode listing typically names the series, the story title, and often the original broadcast date. Below is a breakdown of what you can find, based on the site's current listings.

How the Content Is Organized

Relic Radio groups its episodes under eight podcasts, each tied to a genre or theme. On the homepage, recent episodes appear with a category label and tags identifying the source series. The main genre groupings visible in the listings are:

• Horror & Sci-Fi — includes Relic Radio Science Fiction and The Horror
• Mystery & Thriller — includes Case Closed! and Relic Radio Thrillers
• Strange Tales — a separate podcast for mystery and suspense stories

Each episode entry usually shows the series name, the episode title, the podcast it belongs to, and tags for the original show.

Horror & Sci-Fi Episodes

This category draws from classic science fiction and horror radio series. Examples currently listed include:

Dimension X and Space Patrol represent the science fiction side, while The Weird Circle and The Hermit's Cave fall under horror. Note that some listings, like The House Of Murder, note that no air date is available.

Mystery & Thriller Episodes

The mystery and thriller podcasts feature detective and crime dramas. Current examples include:

• The Adventures Of Philip Marlowe — episode from September 22, 1950, featured on Case Closed!
• Crime Classics — also on Case Closed!
• This Gun For Hire — an adaptation by The Screen Guild Theater, on Relic Radio Thrillers
• Crime Does Not Pay and Sherlock Holmes — both listed under Case Closed!

These shows represent the detective, crime, and suspense genres that were staples of old time radio.

Strange Tales Episodes

The Strange Tales podcast covers mystery and supernatural stories from series such as:

• The CBS Radio Mystery Theater — episode "Afraid To Live, Afraid To Die" from April 23, 1975
• The Haunting Hour — episode "The Skyscraper Mystery" (no specific broadcast date listed)

What to Expect from Each Listing

Most episode entries provide:

• The series name (e.g., Dimension X, CBS Radio Mystery Theater)
• The story title
• The original broadcast date when known
• Tags linking to the source series

Some entries note that no air date is available, so not every episode has a confirmed original broadcast date.
