We’ve received some requests for the Old Time Radio shows used in The Broadcast. I believe the titles of the shows are as follows:
Death Robbery
Ghost Hunt
Northern Lights
The Hitch Hiker
The House in the Cypress Canyon
The Shadow People
The Thing on the Fourble Board
Three Skeleton Key
War of the Worlds
And all of these should be available from https://archive.org/details/oldtimeradio
If there is a specific show we used ingame that you’re looking for but can’t find, let me know. Have fun

Despite these problems, Escape enthralled many listeners during its seven-year run. The series' well-remembered opening combined Mussorgsky's Night on Bald Mou...
Quiet, Please! was a radio fantasy and horror program created by Wyllis Cooper, also known for creating Lights Out. Ernest Chappell was the show's announcer and lead actor.

Not directly related to the Broadcast itself, but back when Broadcast first was released in TSW, I made some audio recordings of old radio shows for in-game roleplaying events/nights. If you like that sort of thing, they’re here:

“The Peoria Plague” (54 minutes)
