The Shiver Show
The Shiver Show brings you the most spine-tingling tales of crime, horror, and sci-fi from the golden age of radio. This was an era before TV, before screens—when families huddled around the radio, hearts pounding, as stories of suspense crackled through the airwaves.
From the 1930s to the 1960s, these Old Time Radio dramas captured imaginations like nothing else—and you can hear them now. Carefully curated and lovingly remastered to cut the static but keep the chills, The Shiver Show brings you the very best of that haunting era.
Co-hosts Mary Labrie and Greg Flynn prise open the coffin lid on what made these vintage dramas so unforgettable: eerie scores, masterful voice acting, immersive soundscapes, and themes that still resonate today.
Press play, close your eyes, and get ready to shiver.

The Lonely Road - Old Time Radio Crime
This week, The Shiver Show serves up a suspenseful love triangle called, The Lonely Road. Gregory Peck plays Steve, a handsome young man, married to a wealthy, older woman (Cathy Lewis). When Steve becomes fatally attracted to the new housekeeper (Maria Palmer), he begins to forget his wedding vows.
Written by Mary North and produced by William Spier, The Lonely Road first aired in 1946 on the Suspense series, and it's a ripper of a crime/suspense thriller.
Mary and Greg talk about how Palmer and Lewis hold their own playing opposite movie star, Gregory Peck, and how the sound of a sharpening knife can really set the mood. Listen now!
