This week on Saturday Matinee, we continue the holiday festivities with three heartwarming and hilarious old time radio classics. Abbott and Costello are back in "Lou's Christmas Party" finding the duo in chaotic holiday shenanigans as they try to host the perfect party. In Ozzie and Harriet's "No Show for Christmas", we see Ozzie scrambling to save the day when plans for a quiet Christmas don't go as expected. Finally, in the Halls of Ivy, "The Snowman" tells a charming tale of campus life and a magical winter surprise that brings warmth and laughter to the holiday season. Listen to all the heartwarming holiday humour this Saturday on Vintage Classic Radio.

We continue the holidays with chills on Friday Night Noir. Joseph Cotten braves a deadly mission in "Arctic Rescue", while Raymond Burr faces a holiday night gone dangerously wrong in "Out for Christmas". Tense, gripping, and full of twists, these classic Suspense episodes bring winter's cold edge straight to your ears on Vintage Classic Radio.

This week on Tuesday Night Detectives, we open with The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes in "The Great Gandolfo" starring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce. Watson and Holmes square off against a master of deception whose illusions hide a far deadlier game, one that only the world's greatest detective can unravel. Then we turn up the pace with a double helping with Episodes 5 and 6 of Dick Barton, Special Agent. Barton plunges deeper into a high-stakes investigation packed with coded clues, shadowy villains, and the trademark cliffhangers that made this British thriller a sensation. Settle in for sharp wits, crackling suspense, and classic detective storytelling at its best here on Vintage Classic Radio.
