CBS Mystery Theater ~ The Long, Long Sleep 945 

Love these old radio shows!

I used to listen to these in the 1970s, when I went to bed, on a radio next to my bed. Love these - thanks for uploading!

I heard this over 40 years ago when I was in high school and never forgot that "death" scene. Great writing and acting.

When I was 14yo, I caught a Fibber McGee & Molly late one Saturday evening. The nostalgic quality of the staticky broadcast transported me to the warmest, safest place. 20 years later, I've learned so much about generations past from radio programs like these. I can talk at great length with my grandpa & other elders at his retirement home about old programs and actors. I feel like I have a keener understanding of culture today, because of a deeper understanding of the cultures of yesteryear. Once I heard so many, I began to know every story told & retold throughout the decades and programs like Twilight Zone, X Minus One, the Greatest Story Ever Told, etc. There are now contemporary podcasts that utilise the radio-play format and they're great, but nothing tops the grit & grain of these old programs. I loathe advertising in modern life, but I like the commercials in old broadcasts.

Another classic, keeping me company while I sew

This is an incredible story. I had a surgery last year. I thought of the surgeon taking over my vigil as warrior to time and space. I grew up without 📺 and I have a bright humor about how surgery is not a part of the patience consciousness at all. You wake without a loss of time to you! Amazing work. The DR. was hurl while I was in deepest sleep. In my vigil I can only go to sleep. I can not go into any depraved. I cannot perverse unconsciousness. This is a splendid story!...and then I woke up! Hot dog and I have had a blast!!!

I love these dramatized radio shows. Call me old fashioned but I can still remember radios with vacuum tubes. These programs are better than T.V. because you have to see them in your mind. It seems that in today's society we no longer encourage that. To use our imaginations. To exercise our minds. Too bad that. It's actually a lot of fun.

these are great changing up from art bells to these now in bed, there from a time when time was time and not a rush of flurry.

Very much a Relaxing and awesome talent NOT FOUND Anymore or shall I say a rarity today. Lying on the front porch with all my brothers listening in our sleeping bags. Fond memories! God Bless, Cash H.

great job the most complete and reliable otr on the net thanks.

I am a big fan of old time radio programs, but to see the actual dates of the First Run shows is amazing to me. I really enjoy these shows while taking my long drives or puttering around the house. Thank you so very much!

Thank you for sharing these videos, takes me way back. I remember only part of an episode from the 70s, a man realized he was in South America when water turned counter clockwise down the drain. Do you know the one I'm thinking of?

H G Wells was a genius in so many fields. He was one of the first public intelectuales.

03/01/22.....sounds like Norman was having some sort of near death experience while undergoing his surgery.

I always feel like I'm dying when I'm going under General anesthesia 😅 I can only count back to 98.

Therapy please!!

I'm a big fan but some of these episodes are crazy cheesy. This one was better than most.
