Taking me back to my childhood. Thank you.
I never EVER thought I’d ever hear these again!!!! What a great flashback to the 70’s!!
LOVE THESE RADIO DRAMAS....
Listened to these in the dark of a car, my imagination sparking, riding back and forth to Houston in the 70's as a young teen, watching the lines disappear behind us, wondering what was ahead. I truly miss those days.
Dazed and Confused, getting tickets for Aerosmith.
Top priority of the Summer!
I miss the fewer people and smaller regulations so much
My sister and Me listened to these programs growing up in Phoenix in the 70's. It can on in the evening before bedtime. She had a little stuffed animal dog radio. I had a sectional bed with 2 twin beds. We would listen to the program and she usually wanted to sleep in my bedroom after the show. I loved E.G. Marshall's narration and the creaking door! The shows were scary but also thought provoking .
Scary but though-provoking indeed. I too listened to CBSRMT back in the 70's as a child along with other similar shows rebroadcast late at night such as Quiet, Please, Lights Out, X-1, Dimension X and even Black Mass. But although I had a younger brother I would listen to these solo, always in the dark, often on an old AM radio from the 60's, sometimes on a small battery-powered portable. Good times.
This really made the Jules Verne story come alive for me. I remember reading it back in my youth. Well done CBSRMT and thanks Chilly Sunshine for a trip down memory lane for this bookworm.
All these shows are very entertaining and I will listen to all I can ..thank you .....😗
Love most Jules Verne tales! Thanks for sharing.
I'm a Jules Verne fan too.
I love these stories, thank you ChillySunshine.
You're welcome crystalheart9.
Thanks Chilly, i really enjoy listening to these shows, makes me long for simpler times.
Love the shows😊
Mysterious Island is my favourite book of all time.
Fanchuffintastic channel ,love from England ❤❤❤❤
Thank you.
CBS RMT the last stand for classic radio...Everything is optical effects now-SOUND EFFECTS ARE JUST AS EFFECTIVE...Thanks for posting...
Agreed. But sound effects and visual work are not mutually exclusive. They can work well individually or together and both are compelling. To say that everything today is visual ignores the great foley, musical, and voice-acting work done in, for example, audio-books that are actually like old-time radio plays w/music & sound FX along with the same great work done to enhance movies both live-action and animated, certain TV shows, and even games.
Thankyou ChillySunshine
Thank You 🗾
If Captain Nemo shows up, it’s got to be good! Thanks Chilly.
Jackson Beck EXCELLENT
Loved it
I enjoy these stories, and really like the art. Kudos.
I really enjoyed this episode
My Mom and Dad used to take us to Ocracoke Island off of NC growing up. We still try to visit as often as we can. It is a wonderful place to visit and camp out at. So many beautiful memories.

Thank you......
I recognized my buddy old blutos distinctive voice from popeye the sailor cartoon. very intriguing story.i love it.
LOTS of voices I recognize on here, one from the old Power Records, one that was the narrator for GI Joe in the 80s… WOW, all to a classic Jules Verne story, that’s awesome!
I believe I understand , the comments are being Aged with time automatically or growing old like time itself.
Listening from Paola, KS. 9/21/'23. 4:30a.m.
Pleasant Dreams!!!
12:18 He obviously meant southwest, if they're in the Pacific.
First of all there are no hurricanes in the northeast in March but it sounds like a good story
Some have posted that this gave them satisfying closure re: Nemo, but IMO Nemo was reduced to a mere plot point. Mystery solved now I'll just quietly die in my submarine. Verne was like Wells, Lovecraft, Shelley et al a visionary & I felt Nemo deserved a more heroic finale. But thank you ChillySunshine, as always.
These comments are months or years.old,remind Me of the crab monster film that I saw and the people battling him,maybe this is it.
There's another OTR episode i've come across twice now where two guys are washed up on an island in the pacific with giant crab monsters and such. (Wish i could tell you the program and the name of the episode; might be a Suspense, IIRC..?) In that one i think of the characters had flown bombers previously and, as the story develops, he laments to his fellow pilot re all the nuclear testing of the 50's. I think maybe he's the only one who survives in the end and they suspect he went a little mad when he relates his story after being rescued. ...But i've heard so many OTR shows now that they really start to blend together -- especially so on these ones where there were > 900 or even > 1,000 episodes in total.
Can't say i ever saw your crab monster film Mr. Wilsonian, but sounds about right for something out of 50's or 60's sci-fi, lol. IINM, there was more than one giant crab sci-fi movie even...
@@keykrazy it's an episode of Escape called The Island
There is a British movie version 'The Mysterious Island' . The men do battle a giant crab , and manage to upturn it to fall into a hot spring pool . The giant crab gets cooked and they eat it lol .
Harryhausen, Mysterious Island, a wonderful movie
The 1st MT epi I've heard so far that I found wanting. Brave Nemo reduced to a plot convenience. A hurricane in March that blows them 7k miles from the East coast to South of Hawaii? Verne was brilliant, but this fell short IMO despite EG's best attempt to wrap it up philosophically. They can't all be zingers lol.
So...what was in the chest?
