You can download dozens and dozens of X Minus 1 episodes onto your iPod for free. They’re fun.
If you are considering “X Minus One” then also consider “Dimension X”. Both are excellent.
I discovered that I liked OTR when I got a hold of some CBS radio mystery theatre stuff from a Usenet years ago.
On the last year’s road trip from EAA, my wife played a few Heinlein audio books which were good listening.
I do also.
If you decide to do a "ping list" please add me to it.
Thanks.

A couple of links I have in my bookmarks/favorites for old time radio programs:

I’ve been downloading OTR shows for years. It was the main reason that I wanted to get an mp3 player. I still use my old Palm Zire to play these (right now I’m in the middle of 1942 episodes of Superman) because the Realplayer on it. Listening to these things on a ipod shuffle is a pain and the ipad is too big to lug around.
I didn’t know you could get them for free. I spent a little bit of money ordering old time radio shows from audible. I paid between 45 cents and seventy cents per episode of all the old radio classics of my grandmothers generation and love them. However they added up, my entire library cost probably about 100 to amass. Especially with Dragnet, because there were over 400 episodes. .
What is also neat is some of them, like the Shadow ones even have the original adverts with them.
