The Story Lady: A hilarious Radio Program that was on the air in the 1960s. It parodied classic and semi-modern fairy tales and other stories.

Listen to the three episodes (Little Red Riding Hood, Harold and the Magic Chicken Salad, and Mary Poppins) that I have placed on putfile... and you will see why Mr. Smartypants, Meboeck, Peanut, and I have already become fans! http://www.putfile.com/linksquest

If you like what you hear, you can download all of the episodes here: http://zootradio.com/Story_Lady_The.php after registering (for free) on this OTR (old time radio) site.

This is a site with some information about "The Story Lady"

ENJOY!
...Spread the laughs, tell a friend!

Some other good classic radio shows:
  • The Mysterious Traveller (good and CREEPY!)
  • Abbott and Costello

  • George Burns and Gracie Allen
  • Edgar Bergen and CHarlie McCarthy
  • Red Skelton
  • Dragnet
  • Dimension X
  • X Minus One
  • Inner Sanctum (another good CREEPY show)
  • Lights Out (famous for its tagline: It...is...later...than...you...think. (say it creepy and slowly and you'll see why it was so famous
  • Fred Allen
  • Our Miss Brooks
  • The Green Hornet
  • Yours Truly Johnny Dollar
  • And of course, Sherlock Holmes

That's all I know at the moment
