Back to 1975 . Attending a very rough junior high school, Listening to RM Theater took my mind off of school , on Sunday nights. Thank you for uploading ; and thankful for CBS and the actors .
You know these radio shows have helped me get through a few tough times in this life, so far. It's something to look forward to at the end of a bleak day. These are like a loyal friend who is a presence in your corner whenever you need the reminder you're not alone.
EG Marshall states "All of us are two persons..." (the inner self & the self we show the world) & he's correct. In fact, the word "person" comes from the Greek word "persona" which means "mask". Yes: the old English chose the word "mask" to represent the individual. Perceptive indeed. Another great episode. Thanks, CS!
I listened to this first as a child in the 70's and thrilled to it along with other similar radio shows they rebroadcast late at night (in the dark) like Quiet Please, X-1, Black Mass, Dimension X, Lights Out and so on along with TV shows like the original Twilight Zone, The Outer Limits and One Step Beyond. Even Tales from the Crypt (though it had its moments) and Dark Mirror and various radio dramas don't fully recapture the brilliance of CBSRMT. So many truly amazing episodes. Fortunately, radio has been supplemented by the Internet and we can enjoy this brilliant show again along with all the other great shows of radio and TV from the past plus audiobooks, music, you name it.
My parents used to listen to Mystery Theater sometimes. It scared me silly but was somehow still compelling. The opening sound affects and closing with EG Marshal are super nostalgic
There are about 1400 CBS Radio Mystery Theatre episodes and all can be downloaded for free in 50 episode segment zip files. I have them all. I keep track of every one I listen to. I sometimes play them from UA-cam because it makes the episodes more random and allows me to mix them with BBC Radio Ghost Stories, Real Ghost Stories Online Radio, Horror Radio Shows Lights Out and others. These are great because I can listen to them while I'm doing my daddy duty chores, unlike TV. - Thanks for posting. As for the moment, I'm your newest subscriber. - Although, I can listen to my set without being online, unlike yours, I can browse your episodes easier because of the larger fonts and images associated with your lists. The full description is also much faster than playing through the start of an episode.
Also, you can find them at CBSRMT. com..This programs started in 72 (?) and the very first one was Agnes Moore in "The old ones are hard to kill" very very good one. Also..this series -CBSRMT- was produced by the Late GREAT Hyman Brown. Hyman Brown was a produces for MANY of the most successful radio shows during "The Golden Age of Radio"
There’s nothing like a good, suspenseful story! You might be interested in this one, “The Odd Lot” and two others listed under “Claude Chabot Presents” right here on YT. Just follow the link here and enjoy! ua-cam.com/video/tjMKxhE-elw/v-deo.html--Claud.
And it was a real treat in the age of TV with 3 channels and no internet lol! Where the Drive In Theater provided high tech, family fun, and movies weren't portable in any fashion---they were always on big screens!! So RADIO was a real source of real entertainment; a real PRINCE, while Movies = King, TV = Queen lol. An entirely different world in entertainment and communication/access! Thanks for uploading!
My gentle pitt bull I was a junior in high school 1975-76 and wish I had known that these were available. I always had my nose stuck in a book. As a former animal shelter director I like your dog. ❤️ From West by-God Virginia
I remember years ago when I listened to this just on a cell phone but now there's so much better listening to these old plays with a surround sound ... But as I said before in the other CBS Mystery play thank you so much for then and now
Love listening to these at night all cozy and made a fort in the middle of my living room. I've got snacks and I'm all hidden safe and sound. From Rochester New York
I'm 73 and I don't recall hearing any stories on the radio. Maybe my interests at the time took me in other directions. I got my first car in 1965 in time to start tech school and I was always listening to music on a new 6 volt TRANSISTOR car radio!
While this is not my favorite episode of CBSRMT, it is, undoubtedly, the most well-crafted of this wonderful series. Episode 696 sets up nearly 10 possible directions and endings moving from the 2nd to 3rd act. As a short story(Algernon Blackwood) in itself, it can be regarded as a classic. The adaptation was superbly done which to do for radio is no easy task.

I do not recall this episode!!! Love the insane doctor and the totally gullible couple! Nothing like a good street doctor, seeking out and inviting strangers to relax and unwind. What could possibly go wrong here?
These are great. I remember them from high school days. if you'd like to hear something like this, try Claude Chabot's Theatre of the Fantastic on YT. One of them is at ua-cam.com/video/tjMKxhE-elw/v-deo.html.

Exactly... how ? He was with the doctor the whole time after he left the house.....I thought maybe there was a twist and the captain really did kill the woman and the doctor was make believe....
@@sandrasatterfield4432 yes that's one possible ending I can think of. The other possibility is that Dr.Spriggs was the murderer who brought him back to another room in the same house (because they mention it was also dark when they entered), and finally gets the captain his own hat back from the other room, after conversing with him and realising he's just a stranger who isn't involved with his wife in any way.
The supposed Dr. Sprague was the murderer. He was in the house when o Reilly was there and forgot his hat. Sprague picked up o Reilly’s hat and gave it back to him. O Reilly was with the murder the whole time.
@@SStevenson555 Sprague gave him his hat, not knowing it was his, proving he had been upstairs with the woman. EG says at the end "Sprague was never caught."
You kids quit that program. Aintcha got nothing better to listen to? Lone Ranger? Howdy Doody? I'm gonna tell yer pa when he gets back from the barn. He's gonna take away yer radio altogether and a good thing too.

This particular episode aired a month before I was born. Gosh I just love radio drama.

Interesting info., thanks for that!!
I remember this as a young kid I listened on the radio in the dark, When radio was good they don't make them like this anymore...

@@moxievintage1390 simple times back in the 70s. 1973 to 1977, was a great time to serve in the United States Marine Corps.
I want to be the first one to say I like these and used to listen to them as a kid. No one else has ever said that right?
Takes me back to when my father and I listened to mystery radio
Wow, a nail biter and the ending was on point , fogs are spooky 👍
My mom listened to these programs (she's legally blind) I found them myself about 3 years ago... love to listen while I am camping.
I remember years ago when I listened to this just on a cell phone but now there's so much better listening to these old plays with a surround sound ...
But as I said before in the other CBS Mystery play thank you so much
for then and now
Listening in England. 2020. Great stuff
Listening in Australia - agree - great stuff.
Love listening to these at night all cozy and made a fort in the middle of my living room. I've got snacks and I'm all hidden safe and sound. From Rochester New York
Love these to go to bed by
I love these and BBC Radio Drama's are also great.
I really really, love the story's. Thank you.
You're welcome.
I read somewhere when asked "what does the E G stand for?" His response was "Everbodies Guess".

Really good
I really enjoyed this story, but I am still curious about how it ended up being his hat????🤔🤔🤔
Exactly... how ? He was with the doctor the whole time after he left the house.....I thought maybe there was a twist and the captain really did kill the woman and the doctor was make believe....
I can't understand the hat ending. What does the hat at end mean?
@@sandrasatterfield4432 yes that's one possible ending I can think of. The other possibility is that Dr.Spriggs was the murderer who brought him back to another room in the same house (because they mention it was also dark when they entered), and finally gets the captain his own hat back from the other room, after conversing with him and realising he's just a stranger who isn't involved with his wife in any way.
I'm glad I was not the only one confused... the second explanation, works for me.
I lived in Beacon Hill for three years. Never heard of a Morley St.
I'm foggy about the ending ?
What happened??? End was unexplained. Someone please explain. I love these old radio shows, listened as a teen. But please don't leave me hanging.
The supposed Dr. Sprague was the murderer. He was in the house when o Reilly was there and forgot his hat. Sprague picked up o Reilly’s hat and gave it back to him. O Reilly was with the murder the whole time.
