When I was younger, my only source was drug stores and the like where I "might" find an episode of something or what the library had on vinyl. Of course there was CBSRMT late at night, but that was an exception. We are very spoiled. The nice thing is that we can be more choosy about what we listen to and just listen to the best. When I was a kid, if the drugstore had an episode on tape, that is what I bought and listened to. If they had George Burns and Gracie Allan, that is what I got to listen to. Two weeks ago, I decided I wanted to listen to all of the Hermit's Cave episodes I had. BTW, the show varied wildly in quality. I think there are only like 5 episodes extant that I don't have. One of those is now posted on this website. It is nice to get so much choice as to what to listen to.

One interesting issue that is a side-note to the availability that was referenced above is that there are so many choices that referrals mean more. For example, there are 1300 some episodes of CBSRMT and without a recommendation, there is a good chance I would have never heard this episode. Suspense is much the same creature. There are so many episodes that it is doubtful many people have listened to them all. Thanks to all on the group for your recommendations.
