The Shiver Show
The Shiver Show brings you the most spine-tingling tales of crime, horror, and sci-fi from the golden age of radio. This was an era before TV, before screens—when families huddled around the radio, hearts pounding, as stories of suspense crackled through the airwaves.
From the 1930s to the 1960s, these Old Time Radio dramas captured imaginations like nothing else—and you can hear them now. Carefully curated and lovingly remastered to cut the static but keep the chills, The Shiver Show brings you the very best of that haunting era.
Co-hosts Mary Labrie and Greg Flynn prise open the coffin lid on what made these vintage dramas so unforgettable: eerie scores, masterful voice acting, immersive soundscapes, and themes that still resonate today.
Press play, close your eyes, and get ready to shiver.

The Shiver Show is proud to present 1984, a Lux Radio Theater production with one of our all-time favourite actors, Vincent Price. Surprisingly, this production was recorded in Sydney, Australia and has a terrific Australian and New Zealand cast of voice actors. 1984 is a tight, compelling adaptation of George Orwell's novel published in 1949.
Mary and Greg unpack the writing, the timeless themes, Orwell's influence on popular culture and whether overall's are a strong fashion statement.
