DIBBLE COMING TO CD

DIBBLE NEWS - as we mentioned before, Brilliance Audio will be releasing THE NEW DIBBLE SHOW on CD's in 2018. We will also be releasing episodes recorded just before we went off the air on Sirius-XM -- they were never broadcast and never released. There is also some talk of Dibble possibly returning in all new episodes to be recorded in 2018. Dibble is still deciding if he wants to do that - so we can't make it official just yet (he can be a bit of a pain, you know).

JIMMY AND THE STAR ANGEL

REVIEW for JIMMY AND THE STAR ANGEL on the Great Detectives of Old Time Radio site.

REVIEW

A Sad farewell to one of the greats in radio drama.

A very sad day in the world of radio drama, with the passing of the great Jim French - creator of Harry Nile and Imagination Theater. CRT was honored to join the Imagination Theater line-up in 2007 with POWDER RIVER, and while some of their fans didn't like the idea and were quite vocal about it at first, Jim and Larry Albert stood by us and let the show develop an audience. At a time before the internet and computers (around 1976), Jim kept the art of radio drama alive with ...new productions when almost no one else in the country was doing so (except for CBS Radio Mystery Theater) - and embarking on a long run that I am in awe of. I never met him, and I'll always regret that - but it was a thrill to hear that incredible voice introduce Powder River once a month.
I am sure that Harry Nile will go down in radio history as one of the all-time great detective shows -- and that, my friends, is one hell of a legacy. God Speed, Jim. - Jerry Robbins

INTRODUCING FAMILY TIME AUDIO THEATRE

Family Time Audio is exactly that…

audio dramas that are perfect for sharing with the entire family.  Grandparents to young children will find Family Time Audios entertaining and our stories enthralling.   

No need to worry about strong language or adult situations.  Our programs hearken back to a simpler time when being “edgy” wasn’t necessary, but good storytelling was.  

Thoroughly modern sound editing and our fondness for superior music scores make each production something truly special.

A new sister company of CRT, we look forward to producing new and exciting content with Family Time - especially its new release

ALL FOR ONE!

Many have asked us at Colonial to produce more episodes of our 2008 comedy series JERRY AND THE PIRATES. We've done just that (With a change in title), and have released ALL FOR ONE! It's on Audible, Amazon, iTunes, and many other digital book stores.
