In our encore performance from Project Audion this season, Larry Groebe returns again to ask what do you do if you grew up listening the classic dramatic series on the radio, then found a career writing TV comedy for Bob Hope, and now, decades later, you still harbor fond feelings about those radio shows of your youth? Well, if you're Robert L. Mills, you write shows like the one you're about to hear.  It's a takeoff of a certain famous detective whose name sounds awfully similar to OUR show's hero, named Stan Slade. The original "Adventures of Sam Spade" was broadcast in the late 1940s and early '50s. It starred Howard Duff as the detective created by Dashiell Hammett. It was a fun show that never took itself entirely seriously. Mr Mills has nudged his tribute a little further into the toungue-in-cheek -- or should I say toungue in beak? -territory, reuniting the detective with his old adversaries from the Maltese Falcon movie, Sydney Greenstreet and Peter Lorre. Everyone in our cast gets to have some fun with this adventure of Stan Slade, Detective, entitled "The Burmese Penguin Caper".  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

A PROJECT AUDION EXTRA: The Adventures of Stan Slade, "The Burmese Penguin Caper"   What do you do if you grew up listening the classic dramatic series on the radio, then found a career writing TV comedy for Bob Hope, and now, decades later, you still harbor fond feelings about those radio shows of your youth? Well, if you're Robert L. Mills, you write shows like the one you're about to hear.  It's a takeoff of a certain famous detective whose name sounds awfully similar to OUR show's hero, named Stan Slade. The original "Adventures of Sam Spade" was broadcast in the late 1940s and early '50s. It starred Howard Duff as the detective created by Dashiell Hammett. It was a fun show that never took itself entirely seriously. Mr. Mills has nudged his tribute a little further into the tongue-in-cheek -- or should I say tongue in beak? -territory, reuniting the detective with his old adversaries from the Maltese Falcon movie, Sydney Greenstreet and Peter Lorre. Everyone in our cast gets to have some fun with this adventure of Stan Slade, Detective, entitled "The Burmese Penguin Caper". 

In this episode of Sam Spade, the detective embarks on a complex investigation following the collapse of a municipal auditorium that resulted in multiple fatalities. As he delves deeper, he uncovers a web of deceit involving key players, including the architect, the building inspector, and the mayor. The narrative unfolds with twists and turns, leading to a shocking murder and a tragic conclusion that raises questions about accountability and corruption in the city.TakeawaysThe collapse of the auditorium was a pivotal event.Sam Spade's investigation reveals deep-seated corruption.Key players include the architect, building inspector, and mayor.Murder is intertwined with the investigation.Political intrigue complicates the case.The search for truth is fraught with danger.Deceit and betrayal are central themes.The tragic conclusion leaves a lasting impact.Real emotions surface amidst the chaos.Justice is often obscured by power and influence.Sam Spade, detective, Civic Pride Caper, murder mystery, investigation, building collapse, political intrigue, private investigator, crime drama
