Next Monday, June 22, Relic Radio Science Fiction will feature part one of a two part adaptation of George Stewart’s Earth Abides. The novel was first published in 1949, one year before the radio version from Escape.
From this wikipedia article:
Earth Abides begins in the United States during the 1940s, largely in Berkeley, California area, within sight of the Golden Gate Bridge. Most of the Earth’s population has perished from a virulent airborne disease. Isherwood Williams, who had been living in a solitary California mountain cabin, is one of the survivors of the pandemic. He emerges from his scientific studies in the mountains to find his entire world barren of people. Ish explores the empty world and then settles down with a handful of survivors to begin the process of restoring the human race and civilization.
Beginning this Sunday, June 7, the Relic Radio shoutcast stream at Live.RelicRadio.com will be featuring two hours (or so) of fine old time radio serials. The stream is playable in iTunes, Quicktime, Winamp, Windows Media Player, and the Real Media Player. Just click on the icon of any player you have installed, or if you’re using Windows you can use the embedded player on the website.
We’ll be starting off with a 1932 production of Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde. This serial was done in 52 fourteen minute episodes, so we’ll be hearing 4 episodes every Sunday. Next up will be one half hour episode of Operation Luna from Journey Into Space. We’ll finish off with Superman and two episodes from Knights Of The White Carnation for a final half hour.
I’m thinking things will begin around 6:00PM Eastern time.
Now available at ShopRelicRadio.com, The Martian Chronicle Collection! This 10 episode set includes all the available old time radio adaptations of Ray Bradbury’s classic science fiction tales. Visit shoprelicradio.com and check this set out further.

Look for some extra episodes of The Horror to begin soon. I’ll be reposting some of the early episodes again for those who haven’t heard them yet, and hopefully the rest of us will enjoy them once again. The Saturday shows will remain “new”.
The return of Vintage Horror Radio is also upon us as well!
