This week our adventure takes us to the high Sierra Mountains in 1846 and the cold freezing climes of the Donner Pass. An excellent tale from director and producer Elliott Lewis and Suspense.

The week's adventure takes us to the comedy genre. A look at one of the earliest sitcoms on radio - The Aldrich Family starring Ezra Stone (right) as Henry Aldrich, a typical teenage boy.  A timeless series that still provokes much laughter today.

Music under is "Take It Easy" by The Gabor Bolla Quartet on the Podshow Music Network.

The prestigious and highly experimental radio series from CBS under the direction of Irving Reis produced some excellent drama. This week a look at how time and the telephone is intertwined to produce a suspense story about death and sadness. Ironically, the telephone like the radio brought people together though radio was much more comprehensive. A first rate production.

Escape with us now as we follow a Navy flyer who crash lands on a remote island in the Pacific only to be swept into a strange world in which he is thrust into the future. This play is based on a short story by Science Fiction writer Nelson Bond (right).

Music under is Pearls Before Swine - "Another Time"

A Halloween scary story! Lights Out was one of the best horror radio dramas ever produced. The genius behind it was Wyllis Cooper, but when he left, another radio genius brought it to new levels in sound horror - Arch Oboler (right). Be sure to listen to this one in the dark and alone!

Music under is the theme from Dark Shadows.
