If you never heard one of these radio plays, they're basically a movie without the picture. Different actors/actresses will voice the characters, you'll hear sound effects like cars, doors opening, footsteps, gunshots, etc., musical scores, and you get to hear the sponsors of the show (usually one sponsor), which are the commercial spots -- but they're so much better than today's commercials -- and that gives it a nostalgic feel, so I'm glad they weren't edited out.
"Suspense" was the name of the show that carried these radio plays, and you can purchase them in 7-15 hour broadcasts here on Audible, which is what I was doing originally, and then I stumbled upon the "STARS ON SUSPENSE" podcast! This is much better because the wonderful host chooses the episodes and provides info, trivia, and behind-the-scenes stuff on them. He also arranges them (grouping one celebrity's episodes together when there's a "spotlight" feature, whereas buying the shows are normally presented in broadcast order) so you can listen back-to-back shows that might have your favorite actor/actress.
I didn't realize that this podcast is active and so a new "Suspense" show is presented each week. You can also go back and listen to the earlier podcasts, so you've got lots to choose from. I have the Audible Premium Plus membership, so I get to listen to these shows without having to purchase any additional material.
I can't remember the host's name, but he has a nice speaking voice and sets each episode up and explains why he chose that particular show. I listen at night before I go to sleep and it's like having a bedtime story read to you every night.
Highly recommend it.
Excellent Podcast Of Radio Plays

It's also nice to be able to scroll the episodes for favoite stars like Joseph Cotten, Agnes Moorehead, Raymond Burr, etc., as well as to discover actors that were new to me but clearly contributed lots of talent to Suspense. I also love the old radio commercials for Roma Wines, Signal, etc., that are included in the podcasts.
Thank you so much for your efforts and expertise!
Really appreciate this gold mine of classic radio
