Whodunnit vs reporting


(0 stars)

Thank you for whatever repairs have been made, but I wish whoever added this would give more information. "Each episode was verified and accurately labeled using the most up to date program log." Verified and labeled by whom? And how about a link to the program log? As Randy Stone would tell you, a good reporter tells you what he knows AND how he knows it, using "anonymous" sources only when there's a good reason -- and telling you the reason.

must download the files individual


(4 stars)

six years later, and the torrent still does not work. So I downloaded the MP3/OGG files separately. Takes a little longer, but did get all the files. This set compares differently than the last one I downloaded (with 77 files). I look forward to listening to these files. Thanks.

May not download via torrent completely

As of Feb. 8 2014 there are three people stalled at 87.75%. This may be because filenames or content have been changed since the torrent was first made. If you opt for torrent download it may be necessary to fill in by manually downloading incomplete or missing files.

A really great series.

I absolutely loved the stories told in this series and Frank Lovejoy made the character of Randy Stone really come to life. Sadly some of the files did not play and kept stopping .However you can find the series on other websites such as radioechoes.
