The internet archive has a lot of Old Time Radio programs available. I’m currently re-listening to Gunsmoke and I can’t recommend it enough. The John Meston-written episodes quickly set the tone for a distinctive series at the twilight of the golden age of radio and radio dramas. The five (?) hour retrospective on the series, which I think was done in the ‘70s, is actually a great introduction, since it has recordings of some of the great episodes like “The Guitar,” “Cow Doctor,” and “Bloody Hands” and describes the production and changes to the production of radio dramas. E: Also, as far as I know, the recordings that are available are generally considered public domain although you couldn’t produce an episode of Gunsmoke yourself.

Reminds me of this guy’s website: http://www.jimramsburg.com It has a wealth of interesting information but it is a nightmare to navigate. I am thinking of posting some reviews of the Gunsmoke episodes I’ve listened to most recently but I left my book with production details elsewhere so I am going to get that before going ahead.
