This week on "Tuesday Night Detectives" from Vintage Classic Radio, we begin with suave sleuth Phil Vance in "The Butler Murder Case", originally broadcasted on February 15th, 1949. When a respected society figure is found dead in his study and all signs point to the loyal family butler, Vance isn't convinced by appearances. With his usual blend of erudite charm and sharp deduction, he peels back the layers of an upper-class facade to uncover a motive buried in envy and inheritance. The episode stars Jackson Beck as Philo Vance, with Joan Alexander, George Petrie, and Humphrey Davis rounding out the cast in a story that probes loyalty, legacy and the lethal cost of family secrets.Then we delve into wartime espionage with "The Case of the Stolen Secret" from Counterspy, aired November 12th, 1950. When top-secret information vanishes from a government lab, the trail leads Counterspy agent David Harding into a maze of sabotage, betrayal, and international intrigue. Harding must unmask a cunning double agent before a deadly intervention falls into enemy hands. Don MacLaughlin stars as David Harding, with Mandel Kramer as his trusted aide, Harry Peters. Produced by Phillips H. Lord, this taut, patriotic thriller captures the paranoia and urgency of Cold War intelligence work, blending action with moral clarity in a race against treachery. Join us for a double bill of deduction and deception on this week's Tuesday Night Detectives.

On this week's episode of “Tuesday Night Detectives” on Vintage Classic Radio, we delve into the mysteries of two riveting detective shows. First, we feature “Philo Vance” in “The Poetic Murder Case,” originally aired on August 24, 1948. In this episode, the suave detective Philo Vance, portrayed by Jackson Beck, finds himself entwined in a puzzling case when a renowned poet is found dead. The poet's demise is as dramatic as his verses, involving cryptic clues that only Vance's deductive prowess can unravel. The episode also stars Frances Robinson as the quick-witted secretary Ellen Deering and George Petrie in the role of the beleaguered District Attorney Markham, alongside a skilled supporting cast that brings the smoky, suspense-filled 1940s to life. Next, we shift gears to the swinging sixties with “Walk Softly, Peter Troy” in the episode “The Champagne Doll,” which first hit the airwaves on March 10, 1964. Detective Peter Troy, voiced by the charismatic Don McCorkindale, investigates the mysterious disappearance of a fashion model known for her association with high society and expensive tastes in champagne. The plot thickens with intrigue and danger as Troy uncovers the darker side of the glitz and glamour. Supporting McCorkindale, June Spencer plays the sassy assistant Julie, and Horace Sequiera adds depth as Inspector Caswell, each character weaving their own thread into this complex tapestry of suspense. Together, these episodes from “Philo Vance” and “Walk Softly, Peter Troy” provide a captivating look back at the golden age of radio detective stories, offering listeners a double dose of deduction, charisma, and the thrill of the chase. Join us for a nostalgic trip into the heart of mid-century mystery, where the truth is as stylish as the era itself.

Well, that brings our look at the launch of The CBS Radio Mystery Theater to a close. We've spent the past five months making our way forward in time from 1957, to 1963, to 1973, and finally 1974. But, next month on Breaking Walls we'll head back to the middle of radio's golden age and focus on one of the most successful comedians of all-time. Next time on Breaking Walls, it's February of 1944 and between entertaining troops, smashing box office numbers, and notoriously carousing, the man jokingly referred to by friend Bing Crosby as “ol trowel nose,” Bob Hope, is radio's top comedian. For the first time in six years of Breaking Walls episodes, we'll focus on the man who always reminded us to say, thanks for the memories.
