For Sounds Like Radio's Library of Sound Volume 229 Your Humble Host turns to open his personal Jean Shepherd Tape Vault containing the many Shep shows I recorded in the 1970's. Well, what have we here? A February 24, 1975 tape when Jean talks about all kinds of interesting hobbies. I think having a hobby is important to everyone, it provides you with doing something you love and is fun to do. I have several hobbies I've enjoyed for years. Let's listen to some of the hobbies Jean has in mind.

It's time for an all time favorite here on the Library of Sound--Nero Wolfe the master detective who puts it all together. Today on the Library of Sound (LOS) Volume 227 Nero Wolfe is called to court to be the "Next Witness". This is not only an outrage to Nero to have to leave his house but then to sit and realize that the man accused is innocent!

Only one course for our gourmet detective, get up and leave before he is called to testify. Now the police are searching for Nero for contempt of court. Your Humble Host knows that when Nero is on the case the real murderer will be brought to justice.

The Shadow Returns to Your Humble Host's Library of Sound (LOS) Volume 226 as he seeks a murderer who is supposed to be dead. From October 29, 1939 today's Shadow is called "The Phantom Fingerprints". The Shadow knows where evil lurks.

Quite an entertaining show today on the Library of Sound (LOS) Volume 225 as Your Humble Host presents a Jack Benny Show with special guest star--Al Jolson! One of the all time great entertainers was Jolie along with one of the funniest guys who could get a laugh with just a look. Have fun with this Jack Benny & Al Jolson classic from April 2, 1950.

Welcome to another Bing Crosby Show (6/18/56) from the Bing Wing of the Vast Library of Sound Vol. 14.  It’s time for a great short 15 min. show from the one and only Bing Crosby.  Your Humble Host loves these latter day 1950’s shows and so will you.  In this episode in addition to Ken Carpenter & Bing banter we'll also hear from one of Bing's boys-Lindsay.

From the Library of Sound (LOS) Volume 224 comes this action packed and funny Sam Spade detective story, "The Wheel of Life Caper" as it was originally broadcast July 11, 1948. Howard Duff IS Sam Spade who no doubt slathers on that crazy Wild Root Cream Oil.

From the Humble Host Ranch we bring you another exciting Western story on the Library of Sound (LOS) Volume 223 with Hopalong Cassidy! Your Humble Host gallops into the Humble Host Barn to pick out this Hopalong adventure straight out of the Hoppy Files.

Today Hoppy & California get involved helping a pretty Senorita as "The Devil's Drums" are heard in this March 24, 1951 episode. Hoppy & California (the great Andy Clyde) get serious when murder is afoot!

On the Library of Sound (LOS) Volume 222 we've got another funny one. It's the Phil Harris - Alice Faye Show from December 8, 1946 as Phil & Alice at home and when stepping out manage to have some crazy fun. It's a good way to start the week here with a laugh on Sound Like Radio, enjoy.

Today on the Library of Sound (LOS) Volume 221 we're set for some detective action, Philip Marlowe style with Your Humble Host. As Marlowe sees to it he's no "Easy Mark" in this January 29, 1949 episode. Marlowe, Nero Wolfe, Sherlock Holmes some of the all time classic detective fiction heroes we love here on the Library of Sound. Let's listen...

Your Humble Host brings you a bit of an odd one today, as the Library of Sound (LOS) Volume 219 presents a June 18, 1949 Quiet Please with a story called Pavanne. Pavanne was one of the earliest examples of dance music from the 1500's! Or is Pavanne today a story to inspire thought and consideration? Well, you'll have to hear it for yourself and make up your own mind. Quiet Please, one of the most unique radio shows you'll ever hear. And here's an example of it you just can't classify. Let's listen and Quiet Please.
