About this listen

Are you ready for some rare detective programs? You may have heard of the Saint, but what about the Judge or Crime Correspondent?

This podcast contains a mix of programs that never made it past the audition and shows that aired for a while, but only an episode or two survived the ravages of time. So sit back, relax, and meet some detectives you never heard of before in long-forgotten tales of mystery, guided by your host Adam Graham. Note: These were originally presented as part of the Great Detectives of Old Time Radio podcast feed.2010-2021 Commentary Copyright Art Entertainment & Performing Arts
