From the classic supernatural radio show "Lights Out", a 1943 episode entitled "Little Old Lady." It's a ghostly story written and directed by the master of spooky stories, Arch Oboler. Made for closing your eyes and letting your imagination run wild.
Sherlock Holmes is such an iconic figure, so well suited for radio, that the detective was on the air for over 20 years. Project Audion recreates an episode from December 3, 1945 entitled "Murder in the Casbah" which was sponsored by Petri Wine.
This is a recreation of a Jack Benny show you've never heard before - because it was written just for Audion by Bob Hope staff writer Robert L. Mills. His script - "Jack Visits the DMV" - has the classic setups and style that sounds like a whole new episode from 1950!
"On Stage" was created by (and for) Cathy and Elliott Lewis, who were on so many shows they became known as "Mr. and Mrs Radio." In this lost episode, two lonely adults find each other one in a bar one night, and find the paths of their lives changed.
Project Audion's second season begins like our first, with an episode of the classic radio drama "Suspense." "Pearls are a Nuisance" is a satirical detective drama based on a story by Raymond Chandler which in 1950 starred Ray Milland.
The national premiere of a NEW Fibber McGee and Molly episode written by Robert L. Mills, former staff writer for comedy legend Bob Hope. "Fibber's Missing Tux" literally brings the couple out of retirement to be honored for their years on the airwaves.
What dreams might drive a man to reach the moon and the stars? Dimension X gave us answers in this episode from September 1951 based on a Robert Heinlein story. It's fascinating to revisit a time when we had yet to even send a man into space.
Project Audion recreates the classic radio (later TV) situation comedy "The Life of Riley" and the charming 1950 episode "The Rileys' First Date" - complete with recreated laugh track.
Quiet Please was written by Wyllis Cooper, master of radio macabre. "Rain on New Year's Eve" originally airing December 31, 1947 is a small, spooky story about movies, midnight, and monsters.
