--------------------
CBS Radio MYSTERY THEATRE is a radio drama series created and directed by Himan Brown that was broadcast on CBS Radio Network affiliates from 1974 to 1982. Later in the early 2000s the show was repeated by the NPR satellite feed.
The format was similar to that of classic old time radio shows like The Mysterious Traveler and The Whistler, in that the episodes were introduced by host E. G. Marshall who provided pithy wisdom and commentary throughout. Unlike the hosts of those earlier programs, Marshall is fully mortal, merely someone whose heightened insight and erudition plunge the listener into the world of the macabre.
CBS Radio MYSTERY THEATRE was broadcast each weeknight, at first with a new program each night. Later in the run, three or four episodes were new originals each week, and the remainder repeats. There were 1,399 original episodes.

I was born in 1972 I may have been 4 or 5 yrs old but I remember going to bed with my mom and listening to these stories and being in complete darkness and the green glowing light from my dads stereo/record player would be the only light in the room! I would fall asleep cuddled up next to my mom. When I found these I was so excited. I wish my mom was still alive she would have enjoyed these. She was barely learning to play music on her cell phone we got her❤️

Same for me. RIP to your mom and mine❤

[@ocg-tax817]

I was born in 1950, and used to hear the soap operas during the day. My mom was always listening to As the World Turns. And Young Doctor Malone. After gradeschool, I don't remember anymore radio shows. Then, sometimes in the 70's or 80's I went to bed, and turned on the radio. Looking for some music to help me go to sleep. Instead of music, I came across a channel in Dallas. The radio announcer was playing old radio shows. He played the comedies, so Lum & Abner was a regular, along with Amos and Andy. Occasionally we'd get Lights Out Everyone and The invisible man. After listening to these stories for a long while, the announcer retired. The radio filled his spot with Sports Update. I was crushed. Now, I'm enjoying stories again. And I'm back in my element.. I often think I was born too late. I should have been born in the 1930's. I prefer radio to TV any way. You can continue working with the Rado playing. With TV, I feel I have to sit and watch. THANK YOU SO MUCH for bringing old radio shows back to life!

[@michaeljames2084]

I've always been attracted to these old radio shows. As a child I always thought I was born in the wrong era, I should have been around during the 1930s-1950s. Welp I'm glad I get a portion of those memories.

[@GeminiladyJackson-xq6hc]

I find listening 🎧 to these radio dramas better than watching TV.

Me too.. but do u ever have weird dreams?..😅😅because I do

[@dougslauson2350]

During the late 1970s, I made it a point of being in front of my stereo receiver on late Sunday nights at 11pm after the house was quiet. I turned out the lights and tuned the receiver to the local clear-channel AM station to listen to E. G. Marshall introduce the next episode of the CBS Radio Mystery Theatre. The yellow glow of the tuning scale on the receiver and fingers of light on the living room wall from a distant streetlight helped establish the mood. I loved every minute of it.

I often listen to podcasts but this radio station really fascinates me, I am brought back to the beautiful days in my memories. Thank you!😍

[@elizabethpenny7732]

Hill folk rarely got the air waves, but flatlanders got them clearly on AM radios back in the day. Fun fancy fact of growing up in both places. Back in the day when rabbit ears were the norm for TVs. Radio was real.

[@ocg-tax817]

I had a transistor radio that I listened to in the 60's. Receiving wasn't very good. I complained about it one day, and my younger brother who was about 12 said he'd fix it. He had a roll of thin wire that he tied down where my antenna was supposed to be, and then clipped the other end to my bedrooms window screen. Instant sound!

[@Jim-ej6yz]

The minds eye. I wasn't born until 1948 so I grew up with tv. I started listening to old time radio on sirius radio when I was injured at work and had to stay off my leg for a year. My older brother was 6 years older and had told me about the radio shows he listened to when he was a kid so it was pretty cool actually hearing them.

[@sandrabrookins3250]

I too was born in 1948 and I remember listening to these. I also remember the soap operas on radio. I also listened to The Lone ranger, Terry and the prirates, Sparky the Fire dog , Dick Tracy.My Dad used to listen to The Grand Ole Opery on Saturdays. I loved all of these programs because we didn't have a TV. .

[@usmc-veteran73-77]

Always enjoyed the opening sounds. These are great, thank you

[@katrinalassberg5649]

I love this program. Especially when the day is done yet I can't turn off my thoughts. I need an escape. The CBSRMT takes me away to the time when I first discovered it in high school. It's great medicine & entertainment.

There is little, if anything people need more than a good story. True since the beginning, doesn’t matter who you are or where or from whence you come.

The ones that have the old commercials and news breaks are very cool too. Heard one the other day that had a sports update and it was Sugar Ray Leonard vs Marvelous Marvin Hagler boxing match. Gave live updates every commercial break, loved it

"The Golden Blood of the Sun" by Sam Dann. Do you think Sam was thinking of- ""Golden blood" is a nickname for Rh-null, the rarest known human blood type, which contains no Rh antigens in red blood cells . Fewer than 50 people in the world have this blood type , which was first seen in Aboriginal Australians. It's called "golden" because of its rarity and scientific significance, rather than its color."
