We’re beginning another tribute to today, with “10 More Great Adventure Stories.” These are stories of imagination and escapism, and thus are perfect for radio drama. Our first is a wild story that fits all of these criteria: "The Boiling Sea," about a cargo ship trapped in the crater of a newly forming volcano in the Pacific. It’s a story of survival, escape, and a great tale of cruel nature vs. man's ingenuity.

Episode #371: Jimmy Stewart On Radio: The Sailor Who Had To Have A Horse 32:05

for 5 dager siden32:05

32:05

Today our month-long tribute to Jimmy Stewart on radio continues. "Cavalcade of America," at one time or other, had almost every major star in a title role during its near 20-year run. In this episode Jimmy Stewart taps into his easy, small American, home-town roots, playing a Montana cowboy who enlists in the Navy, but dreams of raising horses. Despite the Navy's lack of equine opportunities, he acquires a sickly colt and names him Montana, nursing him back to health and fighting to keep him.

Episode #370: Jimmy Stewart On Radio: The Bing Crosby Show 34:48

for 7 dager siden34:48

34:48

Our month-long tribute to actor Jimmy Stewart on radio features a funny 1948 episode of Philco Radio Time, hosted by Bing Crosby. The Bing Crosby Show was primarily focused on popular songs sung by Crosby in the first half, and depending on Bing’s guest, the second half generally was devoted to comedy (written by Carol Carol). Stewart appeared many times on this program, and even hosted the show in the absence of Bing in an episode. We featured three of Stewart’s appearances two years ago, after Jimmy was married. Today we’re going back to Jimmy's first appearance on the program during his bachelor days, with lots of jokes here on Stewart’s popular bashful persona.

Episode #369: Jimmy Stewart On Radio: The Rescue 28:08

Today we are featuring Jimmy Stewart in an episode of Suspense that was only recently discovered in its entirety thanks to collector Randy Riddle. "The Rescue" stars James Stewart in a story about a man who witnesses a distressed woman threatening to jump from a hotel ledge. He becomes entangled in a dangerous plot involving a deceptive doctor and a potential murder. It’s a Stewart performance reminiscent of Stewart’s great Hitchcock films of this period.

We are back to Jimmy Stewart appearances on popular comedy radio programs. Believe it or not, in 1947 Stewart was a guest on "It Pays to Be Ignorant," a show we have featured on this podcast on a somewhat regular basis. The show features host, Tom Howard, and a panel of “experts” (really vaudevillian baggy-pants comedians) who answer absurd questions in kind. Kate Smith pinch hits for Lulu McConnell on this one. Stewart sounds a little like he was handed the script cold, but it’s fun to hear him totter amidst the utter chaos of this show.

This week we continue with radio shows featuring the work of the legendary actor, Jimmy Stewart. The story recounts Pilot Tom Greer's transformation from an isolationist college student to a military enlistee after meeting a refugee. The play highlights themes of American identity, sacrifice, and the moral imperative to fight against tyranny during World War II, and shows a transformation in Oboler’s own work, from leaning isolationist in the late 1930s to a sharp pro-war turn when the United States entered the war.

We are kicking off the month of March featuring one of our favorite vintage Hollywood actors on radio, Jimmy Stewart. Stewart was prolific on radio, with numerous appearances on almost every major A-list program. We are beginning with Jimmy Stewart as guest on the popular comedy, "The Charlie McCarthy Show." The episode features Edgar Bergen, his ventriloquist dummy Charlie McCarthy, and Ray Noble, Anita Gordon, and Mortimer Snerd. This episode features Charlie's mock resignation from radio, a political campaign where Charlie runs for president of his club, and Stewart serves as Charlie's campaign manager.

We end this series of 10 More Great Adventure Stories with an extraordinary adventure about Danny Carlin (played by Paul Richards) and his obsessive quest to steal a large ruby called "The Heart of Kali" from a temple in India. His pursuit leads him to murder, but upon finally reaching the idol he falls into a trap. This was the finale episode of the series “Escape,” with a fitting epitaph by William Conrad as US Marshal Matt Dillon.

Episode #364: Duffy's Tavern 43:37

for 27 dager siden43:37

43:37

Today we are bringing you a new find; a “lost” episode of Duffy's Tavern from November 23, 1945. This is the Armed Forces Radio Service version. That means, because the Armed Forces did not allow advertising on their stations, the commercials were edited out and music filler put in to round the program out to a half-hour. Because of the difference in network and government practices, many missing radio shows only survive thanks to the work of AFRS. In this “lost” episode, Duffy’s is struggling, leading Archie (Ed Gardner) to concoct a contest in which patrons must write why they like eating at the tavern, with a $5 prize for the winner. The episode features characters such as Eddie (Eddie Green), Miss Duffy (Sandra Gould), Officer Clancy (Arthur Q. Bryan), and Finnegan (Charlie Cantor).

We are heading toward the end of our current series dedicated to radio dramas of adventure. Despite its rather non-descript title, today's story is a race against time to locate a bomb planted aboard a train carrying a defecting nuclear scientist. It stars voice over legend William Conrad, and is from near the end of the series, Escape . Regardless of severely reduced budgets on radio in 1953, as all the money was moving to television, this is a high-caliber production that once again showed the amazing innovative work being done on radio at that time.

Today in our on-going series of new transfers, we did a February 6, 1947 episode of the Abbott and Costello show sponsored by Camel cigarettes. This episode can be found in collector circles, but this new digital transfer, despite surface noise, should prove valuable. The episode includes their signature fast-paced comedic style and their classic "dying" at a dry cleaning plant.

Our series of adventure shows turns from the series Escape today to look at its big brother series, Suspense. Suspense rarely did straight up adventure stories, but this 1948 radio broadcast of "Hitch-Hike Poker" featuring Gregory Peck as an ex-GI hitchhiker, in a wild tale that begins innocently enough playing license plate poker with a seemingly charming travelling companion. But soon, things go off-the-rails, as sinister plots emerge.

33:23

Today's adventure is "Seven Hours to Freedom," another production from the 1950s adventure series Escape . This is a story of fishermen and escaped convicts who hijack their boat. The attention to detail is remarkable here, especially the sequence of fish flopping on the deck, and shows just how far producer Norman Macdonnell was pushing technical innovation in audio drama. That, and excellent performances, make this show a great listen today.

Today we are featuring a 1944 radio episode from, "It Pays To Be Ignorant," showcasing a vaudeville-style comedy act. The show consists of a series of absurd jokes and puns, interspersed with goofy musical interludes, and features a panel of intentionally inept contestants answering ridiculous questions. The episode is presented in its original, unrestored form, offering listeners a glimpse into a wild and zany past.
