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.

Fugue in C Minor - Old Time Radio Horror
The Shiver Show plunges headlong into one of the Suspense radio series’ most delicious gothic tales: Fugue in C Minor (1944), starring the incomparable Vincent Price and the extraordinary Ida Lupino.
Price plays the eccentric Theodore Evans, a rich widower who invites Ida Lupino’s Amanda Peabody into his life. Add into the mix Theodore's creepy children, and the untimely death of Theodore's first wife, and you’ve got the ingredients for vintage horror.
Mary and Greg talk about Ida Lupino's groundbreaking career, Lucille Fletcher's terrific radio play, and whether an unhinged Vincent Price is too much (or just the right amount). One thing is for certain, you won't want to miss Price when he pulls out all the stops!
