He’s done fun radio shows in the past and can impersonate lots of famous voices.”“Clever scripts and great that you use the language of the day.”“Good choice of incidental music, all in keeping with the style of a Johnny Dollar episode. We’ll done.”“These shows have been lovingly recreated and the production, editing, and mixing are first rate. Highly recommended just for that!”The original Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar was a radio drama that aired on CBS Radio from February 18, 1949, to September 30, 1962.
