It sounds like you're on the Escher Loop.

It is on CD - I have all 5 series that way (the first two are the
originals; the final 3 were done after Adams died). You can also find
MP3s from recordings from the radio on the 'net, I'm told (I didn't need
to seek those out since I have the CDs).

There's a certain degree of truth to that, because a lot of the subtext
is not in the dialogue, but rather in the narration. Some of it comes
through in the radio series (because of the use of the book as the
narrator), but some does get missed.

Yes, though in the 5th radio series, they did work around it - and from
what I've read both of the production and from The Salmon of Doubt, Adams
did intend to write another book that explained the characters'
reappearance. I think Maggs said that at least part of the idea he used
to bring them back was Adams' own.

Phew! Saved by the good doctor. After a dull trip lasting several
subjective lifetimes, all I can say is “Mornington Crescent”

Ah! Well. It just goes to show…
But after falling into a black hole and travelling halfway round the
known universe then two and a half times round the multiverse, being
turned inside out and back to front. Only to find I’m back where I
started. You grudge me taking the shortest route?

Well actually I don't know what comes after "at least" But if I did I'd
say it. So there :-P
