About this listen
This episode of Proudly We Hail marks the premiere broadcast of the series, starring Clark Gable in a rare postwar radio performance. In First Choice, Gable plays Duke O’Hara, a powerful political figure on the brink of securing his party’s nomination for governor. On what should be the triumphant night of his career, an unexpected revelation threatens both his ambitions and his marriage.
As pressure mounts and loyalties are tested behind closed doors, the drama explores the collision of personal relationships, public image, and political power. Set against the backdrop of a lavish nomination celebration, the story unfolds in real time, with emotions running high and consequences looming just beyond the next decision.
Produced by C. P. McGregor for the U.S. War Department, Proudly We Hail blended dramatic storytelling with contemporary concerns, and this opening episode sets the tone for the series’ focus on character under strain. Gable’s performance brings intensity and authority to a role that hinges as much on restraint as on force.
