Hot August Nights 1


(4.5 stars; 1 review)

Hot August Nights is an OTR Weekend Special featuring ten old-time radio shows, each originally aired in Augusts of various years. This collection includes one hour-long program and nine half-hour or shorter shows, providing a diverse listening experience.

August was traditionally a time when radio comics took vacations, resulting in a lack of comedy in this selection. The stifling heat of radio studios in pre-HVAC towns like Los Angeles and NYC likely contributed to this atmosphere. So, sit in front of a fan, pour yourself a cold drink, and enjoy these classic broadcasts.
