I always loved when Fred Gwynne made an appearance on CBSRMT. Something about his voice was very satisfying, and he was an excellent actor. Thankfully he was a FREQUENT worker, and we have alot of great stuff to enjoy.

I always enjoyed when Fred Gwynne was on CBSRMT. To me, Gwynne and E. G. Marshall were the two keystones of CBSRMT. Without either one, it just would not have been the same. I was barely 16 when CBSRMT returned to radio, and I enjoyed listening to the shows each night before I went to sleep. The shows were always relaxing.
