When I was younger, there was an AM station here in Houston that would play old shows on Sunday nights. They'd start with a comedy, then a western, and finish off with a horror/mystery. They'd rotate through several different shows of each type. On Halloween every year, they'd run a block of horror/mystery shows, and play the "War of the Worlds" broadcast. After I went away to college and moved back, they had stopped playing them.

Once SH4 came out and I saw the radio mods being released, I discovered that a lot of those old shows were available on the internet. My hard drive and mp3 players are now filled with a bunch of them. I just can't listen to them while playing the game. A half hour radio show and time compression just don't work well together in my opinion.
