My old person trait is that I listen to old radio shows and watch a ton of classic movies and shows.
I'm 28 and don't even know when I discovered this exactly but on archive.org there's a group of people called the Old Time Radio Researchers Group who catalogue and archive all of the old radio shows. Some of the episodes sound like they could have been recorded yesterday just because they're in such high quality.
Did you ever listen to The Shadow? They are some phenomenal radio shows from back in the day.
The Shadow knows...
Hell yeah! My favorite will always be Richard Diamond. Private Investigator but I love Suspense and The Shadow as well.
Oh and Gunsmoke of course; I like the show as well but James Arness' voice just doesn't match William Conrad.
