Episode 207: Radio, Radio with Adam Roche
On this episode, I talk to Adam Roche about his “creepy obsession” with Old Time Radio. You may know Adam from his excellent podcasts about classic movies - The Secret History of Hollywood and House of Hammer, but he credits discovering Old TIme Radio as the starting point for all he does now. His first (and still ongoing) podcast, Attaboy, Clarence, combines movie reviews and curated episodes of OTR.
As a fellow OTR lover, I LOVED this conversation. We talk about those radio shows that put on audio adaptations of Hollywood films (Screen Guild Theatre, Screen Directors Theatre, and The Lux Radio Theatre) often with the stars of the films or unique alternate castings (Adam tells me about a radio version of Hitchcock’s Shadow of a Doubt with Cary Grant as Uncle Charley!). We talk about the detective shows, the dramas, and the sitcoms. And we manage to cover a bit of classic movies as well. I think you’ll like this one. Adam is a true gentleman.
You can keep up with Adam and his many projects on that new fangled internet!
