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.

Deadline at Dawn - Old Time Radio Crime
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week on The Shiver Show, Mary Labrie and Greg Flynn take a midnight stroll through the rain-slicked streets of New York with “Deadline at Dawn,” a gripping Lux Radio Theatre adaptation of the classic film noir.
A young sailor on 48-hour leave should be enjoying the bright lights of the city—but instead he finds himself standing over a dead body with a pocket full of unanswered questions. His unlikely ally is June, a wisecracking dancehall girl whose quick wit and street smarts may be his only hope of clearing his name before time runs out.
Based on the novel by celebrated crime writer Cornell Woolrich, Deadline at Dawn is a perfect example of noir at its finest: ordinary people caught in extraordinary circumstances, racing against both the clock and the police. With memorable performances, sharp dialogue, and glamour that only Lux Radio Theatre could deliver, Deadline at Dawn is radio noir at its best.
