Frank Sinatra's charming yet edgy portrayal of Rocky is complemented by stellar performances from Barney Phillips, Georgia Ellis, and John McIntire, who collectively add layers of intrigue and danger to this thrilling narrative.

Spade is hired to track down a missing millionaire, but the case quickly spirals into a dangerous game of cat and mouse involving betrayal and hidden motives. The episode also features key performances by John McIntire as Lieutenant Dundy and Wally Maher as Spade's loyal but often flustered secretary, Effie Perrine.

A dramatic confrontation reveals the unexpected truth behind the curse. Supporting performances include John Kane as Scubby Wilson, Carter's friend and occasional sidekick, adding a touch of humour and camaraderie to the suspenseful narrative. Tune in to experience the thrills and chills of Halloween with master detectives in the golden age of radio on Vintage Classic Radio.

This week, Vintage Classic Radio invites you to a chilling Halloween special on "Friday Night Noir", featuring the eerie double bill of "Donovan's Brain". Originally broadcasted on May 18th and 25th, 1944, this iconic "Suspense" radio show adaptation will set the perfect spooky mood for your Halloween celebrations. In "Donovan's Brain", listeners are taken on a sinister journey with Dr. Patrick Cory, an ambitious scientist who experiments with keeping the brain of millionaire W.H. Donovan alive. The narrative spirals into a haunting exploration of greed, power, and human morality as the brain begins to exert frightening control over Cory. The show boasts a stellar cast with Orson Welles as Dr. Patrick Cory, Hans Conreid as Dr. Schratt, Jeannette Nolan as Janice Cory, and John McIntire as Donovan. Tune in for an unforgettable evening of classic radio suspense that promises to be as unsettling as it is captivating.

Character actor John McIntire - who rode the range on Wagon Train and the mean streets of the city in a squad car on Naked City - returns to the podcast for his third starring appearance. McIntire plays a car enthusiast who takes his antique on a 500 mile tour in "The Big Day" (originally aired on CBS on May 26, 1957) and a convict who's crafted a seemingly perfect plan to escape from prison in "Rain Tonight" (originally aired on CBS on June 29, 1958). Plus, he's the host and emcee of "Report on E.S.P." - a docudrama from The CBS Radio Workshop (originally aired on CBS on March 9, 1956).

"Suspense" was a radio drama series that captivated audiences from 1940 through 1962 during the Golden Age of Radio. Often subtitled "radio's outstanding theater of thrills," this program was a shining example of suspense thriller entertainment. It specialized in delivering heart-pounding stories, typically featuring some of the leading Hollywood actors of its era. With an impressive total of approximately 945 episodes aired over its lengthy run, "Suspense" remains an enduring classic, with over 900 episodes still in existence. "Suspense" was a dynamic series that evolved through several significant phases, each marked by distinct hosts, sponsors, and director/producers. Despite these changes, the show maintained a core set of formulaic plot devices that kept its audience consistently engaged. The show's hallmark elements included: Ordinary Protagonists in Extraordinary Situations: The typical protagonist of a "Suspense" episode was an everyday person who found themselves abruptly thrust into a perilous, bizarre, or highly suspenseful situation. This relatable quality made it easy for listeners to connect with the characters. Withheld Solutions: The show was known for building tension by withholding the resolution of the story until the very last possible moment. This strategy ensured that listeners remained on the edge of their seats, eagerly anticipating the outcome. Moral Consequences: "Suspense" often featured stories where evildoers or wrongdoers faced justice in the end. This moral aspect added a layer of satisfaction for the audience, as justice was typically served. The combination of these elements, along with the skillful use of sound effects and music, made "Suspense" a thrilling and unforgettable radio program. It's not surprising that it continues to be celebrated for its contributions to the world of suspenseful storytelling in the audio medium. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dwight-allen0/support

This Sunday on Vintage Classic Radio's "Sunday Night Playhouse," we feature a captivating rebroadcast of the "NBC University Theater" radio show, also known as "University Theater of the Air." In the spotlight is the episode titled "All the King's Men," which originally aired on January 16, 1949. The episode is an adaptation of Robert Penn Warren's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, exploring the dramatic rise and fall of Willie Stark, a charismatic but morally ambiguous politician who resembles the real-life figure Huey P. Long of Louisiana. The narrative delves into themes of power, corruption, and betrayal as Stark's idealistic start spirals into a ruthless quest for influence. The production features Wayne Morris in the role of Willie Stark, with supporting performances by Betty Lou Gerson, Edwin Jerome, Dan O'Herlihy, and John McIntire. The show captures the tense and atmospheric essence of political maneuvering and personal dilemmas, making it a compelling listen for fans of classic literary adaptations.

This Friday on Vintage Classic Radio, immerse yourself in the shadowy world of "Friday Night Noir." Our evening begins with the “Zero Hour" radio show, featuring the master of suspense, Rod Serling, in the episode titled "Larceny on the Lake." Originally aired on July 4, 1974, this riveting story takes listeners to a seemingly peaceful lakeside, where tranquility is quickly overshadowed by a cunning theft. Rod Serling stars as the shrewd Detective John Marlowe who meticulously unravels the web of deceit among the wealthy vacationers. The cast includes the talented Anne Baxter as Helen Vaughn, a woman with secrets to hide; John McIntire as Charles Dayton, an affluent individual with more than just money at stake; and Agnes Moorehead as Eleanor Brewster, whose wit and insights are crucial to the plot's unraveling. This episode is celebrated for its intricate plot and Serling's iconic storytelling prowess. Following that, we shift to a tale of deception and murder with "The Whistler" in the episode titled "The Alibi." First broadcast on October 25, 1942, this episode ensnares the listener in a web of lies and deceit. The story centers on a man who crafts the perfect alibi to cover a nefarious act, only to find himself ensnared in an unexpected twist of fate. The Whistler, known for his eerie narration and dark commentary, guides us through this chilling narrative. The cast features Bill Forman as the omnipresent Whistler, with supporting performances by Joseph Kearns as the scheming protagonist, and Hans Conried and Betty Lou Gerson in pivotal roles that add depth and intrigue to the unfolding drama. Join us this Friday on Vintage Classic Radio for a night of intrigue and suspense with these two classic noir tales.

Support Breaking Walls at https://www.patreon.com/thewallbreakers In May of 1944 Orson Welles appeared on Suspense three times. The first of which was on May 4th in “The Dark Tower,” a play originally written by George S. Kaufman and Alexander Woollcott. Adapted for Suspense by Peter Barry, Woollcott had died in January of 1943. In many ways, the play is a satire of Welles' friend, John Barrymore, and it's ripe with innuendo and other inside humor. Featured in this episode as Jessica was Jeanette Nolan. Like so often in Bill Spier's productions of Suspense, Hans Conreid played a villain. Here's fellow actor Byron Kane talking about Orson Welles and Hans Conreid. On May 15th, 1944, Orson Welles was placed on the U.S. Treasury payroll to consult for the duration of the war. His pay: an honorary one dollar. On May 18th Welles starred in part one of “Donovan's Brain,” based on the 1942 Curt Siodmak novel. Welles played Dr. Patrick Cory, who successfully learns to keep a brain alive outside the human body. The sound-effects were outstanding for their time. “Donovan's Brain” is considered one of the first adult science-fiction broadcasts. After this evening's show, Orson Welles and Bill Spier were having dinner at the Players Restaurant in Los Angeles when Spier suffered his second major heart attack in ten months. He was immediately placed on bed rest. In the studio he was replaced by CBS executive Robert Lewis Shayon. Although he's once again recovered, heart problems continued to plague Bill Spier for the rest of his life. Just two days after the west coast broadcast of part two of “Donovan's Brain”, Welles spoofed it on his Orson Welles Almanac program. Performed live at the Air Transport Command in Long Beach, California, among those in the cast for the parody were Suspense regulars John McIntire and Hans Conried. For more info on this time in Welles' career, tune into Breaking Walls episode 104.

Support Breaking Walls at https://www.patreon.com/thewallbreakers The man you just heard is Hans Conried. In late 1943 he was thirty-six years old and all over radio. When Suspense moved to Hollywood, Conried quickly became part of William Spier's trusted circle of character actors, often playing more than one part. Conried honed his craft in the 1930s. To Bill Spier's credit, he did his best to allow them the time to have parts on other shows. Spier's rehearsals were known for their loose atmosphere. He selected the best radio actors to be part of the Suspense troupe. This circle included Wally Mayer, Jeannette Nolan, Joseph Kearns, John McIntire, and Lurene Tuttle. Lurene Tuttle later worked with Spier on The Adventures of Sam Spade. Spier had a habit of purposely going into a broadcast with a script that was a minute or two long so the actors were forced into high tension. Spier wouldn't allow a studio audience. He placed the orchestra behind a screen, out of sight of the cast so that the actors could better concentrate on their performance. Suspense found sponsorship in the fall of 1943 with Roma Wines. The show moved to Thursdays at 8PM eastern time. The first sponsored episode was called “The Black Curtain” and starred Cary Grant. It's the first time listeners heard both the phrases “A tale well calculated to keep you in Suspense” and “radio's outstanding theater of thrills.” Uniquely, West Coast and Mountain time would get a separate broadcast on Monday December 6th. This broadcast split would continue until September of 1944. The next month on January 13th, 1944 Lucille Ball starred in an episode called “Dime a Dance.” The script was based on a story by Cornell Woolrich and adapted by Bob Tallman. Tallman wrote scripts in a single day with edits done in the hour between rehearsal and broadcast. Thirty-two and a seasoned film actress, in 1944 Ball began to carve out a second career on the radio. She appeared on Duffy's Tavern, Abbott & Costello, and The Screen Guild Theater. In “Dime a Dance” she plays a dancer in a hall. A serial killer is targeting young women. Her character, Ginger Allen, gets involved in tracking the killer down. This episode's rating was 8.5. Roughly six million people tuned in. For more info on Lucille Ball's radio career, tune into Breaking Walls episode 100.

Suspense takes some rare trips into the otherworldly realms of science fiction in this bonus episode. John McIntire is a mad scientist with an equally mad experiment in "Donovan's Brain" (originally aired on CBS on Februay 7, 1948), and Jack Benny is a one-man welcoming committee on Mars in "Plan X" (originally aired aired on CBS on February 2, 1953). Two Ray Bradbury stories come to radio life in "Zero Hour" (originally aired on CBS on April 5, 1955) and "Kaleidoscope" (originally aired on CBS on July 12, 1955). A test pilot returns with a warning from space in "The Outer Limit" (originally aired on CBS on March 17, 1957), and an average Joe has to convince aliens not to destroy Earth in "You Died Last Night" (originally aired on CBS on April 1, 1962).

In this week's “Tuesday Night Detectives” on Vintage Classic Radio, we journey back to the golden age of mystery with two thrilling episodes. We start with "Broadway is My Beat," where Detective Danny Clover investigates “The Frank Briscoe Murder Case.” In this captivating episode from July 10th, 1950, the gritty streets of New York City set the scene as Detective Clover probes the unsettling murder of Frank Briscoe, a once-celebrated Broadway producer found dead in the glamorous yet perilous theater district. As suspects emerge from the shadows, Clover delves deep into the complex web of jealousy and betrayal that lurks behind the curtains of Broadway. The cast features Larry Thor as the sharp-witted Detective Danny Clover, Charles Calvert as Sgt. Tartaglia, and Jack Kruschen in the role of Muggavin, with additional performances by Charlotte Lawrence, Herb Butterfield, and Joe Gilbert providing a rich backdrop to this intriguing plot. Following that, we tune into “The Adventures of Sam Spade” for “The Soap Opera Caper.” Airing on February 16th, 1951, this episode sees the iconic private detective Sam Spade, portrayed by Howard Duff, embroiled in a peculiar investigation within the dramatic and often deceptive world of a popular soap opera. The case begins when Spade is hired to uncover the source of threatening letters aimed at a leading soap opera starlet. As Spade navigates through the convoluted personal dramas of the cast and crew, he discovers that the on-air theatrics pale in comparison to their off-air schemes. Alongside Duff, the episode stars Lurene Tuttle as Spade's witty secretary Effie, with supporting roles filled by June Havoc and John McIntire, adding layers of intrigue and suspense to the plot. Join us as we revisit these classic narratives of mystery and deception, bringing the allure of vintage radio crime dramas directly to modern listeners.

EPISODE 33 - “Zachary Scott: Star of the Month (May)” - 04/29/2024 Suave, debonaire, and effortlessly charming, ZACHARY SCOTT is best known for his role in MICHAEL CURTIZ's film noir classic Mildred Pierce (1945). As the duplicitous, silver-tongued charmer Monte Beragon, he romances Mildred, played by JOAN CRAWFORD (in her Oscar-winning role), and Mildred's daughter, Veda (ANN BLYTH). This became Scott's signature role: the sexy cad who was usually at his best swindling, seducing, or being a general scoundrel. It was always fun watching Scott's dastardly ways unfold. He could rock a tux, looked naked without a martini in his hand, and always had a cigarette close by. He was so magnetic that he could even make film-goers feel sorry for him. While he seldom got to play the good guy, when he did, as in what is perhaps one of his best roles in JEAN RENOIR's The Southerner (1945), you realize the versatility that he seldom had the opportunity to display. With a career that included over 40 films and dozens of television roles, ZACHARY SCOTT is our Star of the Month.

In 1947, wanting to bring Macbeth to film, Welles teamed with producer Charles K. Feldman to convince Herbert Yates, President of Republic Pictures, to finance. Welles guaranteed to deliver Macbeth on a budget of seven-hundred thousand dollars. When some members of Republic's board expressed misgivings on the project, Welles agreed to personally pay any amount over the initial ask. He brought in Irish actor Dan O'Herlihy as Macduff, and cast former child star Roddy McDowall as Malcolm. To cast Lady Macbeth, Welles visited longtime friend and radio legend Jeanette Nolan. The two had known each other since the 1930s in New York. Nolan and her husband, fellow actor John McIntire, were excited to work with Orson. Welles made several changes to Shakespeare's original, like adding significance to the witches. They were played by two other Hollywood radio legends: Peggy Webber, and Lurene Tuttle. Welles expressed frustrations with wardrobes and the tight schedule. He had the cast pre-record all their dialogue. Locations were leftover sets from westerns normally made at Republic. The entire production was done in twenty-three days in July of 1947. In September, Welles signed on to star in Gregory Ratoff's Black Magic. Shooting would take place in Rome. He wouldn't return until 1948. Republic initially trumpeted the film as an important work, entering it in the 1948 Venice Film Festival. It was abruptly withdrawn after poor comparisons with Lawrence Olivier's version of Hamlet, also being screened. LIFE Magazine gave the film a terrible review in October of 1948, saying that Welles' days as the “boy wonder” were long over. When he returned from Europe in the Spring, Welles cut twenty minutes from the film at Republic's request and recorded narration to cover some gaps. But when finally released, it too was called a disaster. In July of 1948 Welles signed on to co-star with Tyrone Power in the Italian film, Prince of Foxes. The film would be released in December of 1949. Welles' last appearance in the 1940s on American radio was in a pre-recorded segment on Mail Call over the Armed Forces Radio Service, on October 13th, 1948. Now thirty-three years old, Orson Welles had enough of Hollywood. He was in deep debt and needed to move to Europe, full-time. His first main stop would be in Vienna, to star with Joseph Cotton in a new film called The Third Man.

Enjoy two free western episodes of Fort Laramie A) 2/11/56 The Woman at Horse Creek w/ Raymond Burr B) 6/24/56 The Loving Cup w/ Raymond Burr Fort Laramie aired on CBS radio for just one season in 1956.  It starred Raymond Burr as Lee Quince, captain of the cavalry at Fort Laramie, on the Wyoming frontier during the 19th Century.  The fort had 400 troops in all but they had to keep their eye on a nearby Indian reservation with 4,000 Cheyenne camped there.  Producer/Director Norman Macdonnell saw Fort Laramie as “a monument to ordinary men who lived in extraordinary times” with their enemies being “the rugged, uncharted country, the heat, the cold, disease, boredom, and, perhaps last of all, hostile Indians.”  Men died at Fort Laramie: some died of drowning, some of freezing, some of typhoid and smallpox “but it's a matter of record that in all the years the cavalry was stationed at Fort Laramie, only four troopers died of gunshot wounds.”  The stories focused as much on atmosphere and mood as on violence and action.  Macdonnell made it clear to his writers that historical accuracy was essential to the integrity of the series.  Correct geographic names, authentic Indian practices and true military terminology was insisted upon. Macdonnell relied on John Meston and Les Crutchfield, his Gunsmoke writers, for the Fort Laramie scripts.  Vic Perrin was Sgt. Gorce, Harry Bartell was Lt. Seiberts and Jack Moyles was Major Daggett.  Supporting roles were voiced by John Dehner, John McIntire, Virginia Gregg, Parley Baer and Barney Phillips.

Before he was a big screen character actor in Psycho and Cloak and Dagger and a steady hand on network TV dramas like Naked City and Wagon Train, John McIntire was a busy radio performer. We'll hear him co-starring with real-life wife Jeanette Nolan in a sixty-minute adaptation of Curt Siodmak's sci-fi horror classic "Donovan's Brain" (originally aired on CBS on February 7, 1948).  For tickets to the livestream of my original Halloween old time radio comedy this Saturday, 10/23 at 7:00 pm, visit https://www.ashlandtheatre.org/event/terror-on-the-tracks
