A friend obtained a scanner that allowed you to hear one side of those conversations for mobile and marine radio.
We used to listen once in awhile.
One guy in particular was hilarious - he’d call to let the wife know the plane was delayed and he’d be home late, then call his girlfriend to have her drop by the boat. The dude would talk in very obvious “code”. “Need some help with the salami”, etc.

Sometimes the speaker bled into the mic and you could hear a little more.
