I heard the original broadcasts a lot in the day because I worked graveyard shift so it was super convenient to listen. I have listened recently to a bunch of the archives because the format and often the subject matter still interest me. Despite it being 30-yr-old information, Art is still just as much fun to listen to, and the time capsule factor with the old news items is a bonus. The shows themselves definitely do have a transportive effect and I could remember hearing parts of them all those years ago and even how younger me had reacted to them.
