Oh how I looked forward to these nightly radio shows in the 70s! Theater of the mind indeed! The skill of writers, directors, actors and technicians - all to entertain us and sometimes make us think what if! Even with 4K TV, Internet and more, good ole radio shows are still very entertaining in the 2020s!
@@UncleEarl97 Agree...here in 2022, this is actually much better than anything on cable, satellite or anything else out there...theatre of our minds! 👍😊
@@TheMollyPitchers Aside from his TV Hits, I loved Fred Gwinn as the judge in the hit movie My Cousin Vinny. He was superb in that role. What a great movie; one of my all-time favorites!
Remember first listening to these programs on the original WGSO in New Orleans in the late seventies,greatest station ever in N.O.I recall being scared listening to them as a 10 yr old and the commercials were actually a relief from the suspense.I actually enjoyed the advertisements.Hearing them now gives me a sense of warmth.We had a great nation and we've messed it up.
Wow well said. I was around that age too. The commercials were a relief . And the music! That alone almost gave me a heart attack. But i always came back for more. Wbbm news radio Chicago

When I was 12yrs old I use to try to listen ever night. It came on the radio at 11:00 PM and I had to be up at 6:00 AM. I loved the Mysterys but most often I'd fall to sleep before it was over. That local radio station would preempt the show for anything. I hated that!
Definitely a great experience! Reminiscent of my youth,listening late at night.Radio is still more fun than television. It evokes more from its audience .
@Scott H Naughty, naughty, Scott. 🤣... 🤔 Hmmm... Some of my early morning students fell asleep, too. 😤... But they were probably up late playing video games 🙄 instead of listening to the good stuff, like CBSRMT. 😄
I just wanted to say Chilly thank you. Also I can only hope humanity survives earth’s changing environment. I also wanted to say that your radio shows reach even a younger generation that wasn’t around when this played on radio. So thank you
Of course humanity will survive. The wealthy celebrities, politicians, and intelligencia have not become Preppers or moved to high ground, banks are still financing loans. It’s propaganda, narrative to serve them, not us. I loved these stories in my youth in the 70s and still do today! Thanks Chilly!
*Tremendous* work posting these gems for fresh generations to enjoy! (It'd be even greater if their descriptions were tweaked such that their primary plot twists are not compromised.)
I remember hearing these at night over AM late night radio and wish something like it would come back. It brought hours of enjoyment to me on those long lonely nights out on the job.
I remember when is was a child,me my cousins and mom,and dad listened to this episode. This was and still interesting episode. Puts me in the same frame of mind when is first listen to it.David Back.
I listen to these every day and night. I know that I have to suspend belief but it is difficult when I know that they are in a tin plane that supposedly ended up in space and isn't crushed by the atmosphere or burned up but birds can take it down. Yet I loved Gwynne as Herman Munster. LOL
@@tommyoconnor5930 I say bring it on Tommy. Those that need to shield should do so and let the rest of us crack on. I'm 55 so no young chick. Irish are built of hearty genes. My mum is almost 80 and lives abroad and she is in a pub as I type. 😂 I'm sat in my flat bored. Happy Friday. 🍻🥂
@@IslandGirlKelly Kelly not aloud to be bored I am 6 years older than you and try my best not to be bored 😐 I can sulk but why shouI get up and Do something you e
I actually remember hearing this one way back when. I was laying down in an upstairs studio apartment with a black light on pretending I wasn't home to have an evening of peace and quiet
I listened to these....and older shows like the Shadow, etc, throughout the late 60's and 70's late at night....drove my mom nuts! But loved everyone of them. Personally, I'd have stayed on Goodship 1.....being a devoted follower of the original Star Trek, Outer limits.......😊
SpongeBobNoPants don't forget he played the mean judge in My cousin Vinny, he played Herman Munster in the Munsters ,he also starred in the tv series Car 54 alongside the old guy who played grandpa in the Munsters.
Interesting that they kept referring to being 90 millions miles away and thereby being close to the moon. The moon is only 225,000 miles away, the Sun is 93 million
They make at least two mistakes. They're supposedly around the Moon but keep saying that they have traveled 90 million miles. That would put them near the Sun. The moon is only 250,000 miles. And they say the Fourth Dimension is involved. Uh yeah, that's also known as time. Of course it's involved but it doesn't explain how they made it to the Moon.
There are a few problems with the script. The distance from the earth to the moon is not 93 million miles, which is later correctly stated as 250 thousand miles. There are also E.G.Marshall's lines calling the space station "God Speed One", when the script for the actors has it named "Good Speed One". CBS synopsis also has the name "Good Speed One".
So I decided to do something random, got tired of watching the same stuff and whatever words pop in my head, I was gonna lookup on youtube and here I am. Idk what I'm about to get myself into. 😮
It's 2021. The international space station is a reality. China is on the moon, and America is talking about going back to build a mining colony. Russia, China, India, and America are working to start colonies on Mars. I just hope humans as a species don't mess of those two places like we have Earth.
The theater of the mind! What a great description for CBS Radio Mystery Theater!

I was 8 years old in 1978. Thankfully my mom let me listen to these with her as I grew up. These are so nostalgic and good.
I was thirteen in 78 and never knew about these shows glad I found em at 57 lol
It's always great to have a little scifi in our Mystery Theater. :) Keeps things fresh.
Greetings from Germany
Love listening to these 💗
This one originally aired the day after my birthday 👍
I am enjoying these every nite INSTEAD of tv….SO much more entertaining & they make my mind more active & imaginative! Luv Fred Gwynne! 👍
I remember having a radio on the nightstand ,couldn't miss these shows when I was a kid. Great memories ! Thank You!
WOR 710! 1974 7:30pm! I was glued to the radio listening to E.G. Marshall!
I'd give anything to had experience that! At least I can listen now, but still..
@@ZekeThePlumber86 g
I love these radio plays and the great character actors of the time with their skilled and trained voices. Fred Gwinn, what a distinctive voice!
Check out reruns of Car 54 Where Are You? and The Munsters for more of the awesome Fred Gwynne 🙂
I loved the Munsters on TV back then!

I would often fall asleep a little bit at school instead
I too was supposed to be asleep, twin bed, next to my 7 yr old sister.
Me to would call a sleep

I use to go to bed listening to this in the 70's
I've been going to bed in every decade.
These are fantastic, thanks Chilly. I remember listening to "Our Miss Brooks" on AFN Europe in the 70's.
Listened to these episodes with my mom as a kid on WBBM news radio 78 during the late 70s.
@Tumbleweed please shut up.
Thank you so much! I really appreciated all of these!
Wow, what a thriller!!!!!! Thank you so much!!! ✈🛸🚪🛎
Old progs but still good today..great stories☺Thanks Chilly.
Very good, entertaining radio shows. Keep them coming!
Loved Fred, Great actor and seemed to be great guy!!

1978, glad to hear that this great program lasted so long, wish we still had great radio drama like this.
We do, right here!

Rip Fred Gwinn aka Herman Munster & the Judge in My cousin Vinny .
And old guy in Pet Cemetery. And probably more I've forgotten or don't know of.

That's right, I loved car 54. Thanks for the reminder.

Interesting that they kept referring to being 90 millions miles away and thereby being close to the moon. The moon is only 225,000 miles away, the Sun is 93 million
Would couple of big bubble levels help if you're totally disoriented? What do planes have as a back-up if their instrument panel can't be trusted?
They said JFK Jr got mixed up as to whether he was upside-down or right-side-up because he couldn't read instruments yet. How scary.
In the radio tower when he's getting his weather report sounds like Fred Gwynn..
"Alice, one of these days-- POW! Right to the moon!"
Cant get steven off to sleep without story 40+ lol
at 35:45 The Major actually says "what a bummer"
Wow .Buick Electra mileage 22mpg and 15mpg " Estimates lower in California" My how times have changed
Thanks
Trying to equate 90 million miles with the moon. 🤔
In 1978.....10 years after landing there 😂
😆🤣😂
My very thought!

I was going to mention the distance.
Yeah they confused with the sun
Not that the sun is 93 million miles away that bs
@@carlesq. let me guess, you are a flat Earther that thinks the Sun is just a really close lamp.
