There is a toad singing showtunes in the creek outside Old Mrs. Moody's bedroom - and it's midnight! Such a ruckus! Poor Old Mrs. Moody can't get to sleep and has to call Catbaloo for help. When Catbaloo arrives, together they decide that it's not the toad's singing that they mind, it's the TIME he is singing that's the problem. So, they come up with a plan: they will build Mr. Toad a stage and will help him put on a show every afternoon. Hopefully, Toady will be so worn out from his daily matinees that he'll go to bed early and sleep all night. Old Mrs. Moody bakes cookies, prints flyers and invites the whole neighborhood to come to the show. Uncle Henry, Lizbeth, and even Thelma, and her darling little grandson, William, come to the singing extravaganza. Listeners are encouraged to think about the importance of using their talents so that they don't go to waste. "What good are your talents if you never try to use them?” - Catbaloo “Why, they'd be no good at all––they would be wasted. And that would be tragic!" - Old Mrs. Moody This is a wonderfully meaningful and funny episode, highlighted with a special guest star performance by a very full-throated toad. Hope you enjoy the show and will listen over and over and over. Feel free to sing along in your best toady voice! I recorded this with all your dear hearts in mind. 1 Peter 4:10 Thank you for listening /sb © 2025 sb veskerna all rights reserved

Suspense - Uncle Henry's Rosebush 1943 Stars-Agnes Moorehead, Ellen Drew & Ted Ried When a woman and her husband arrive unexpectedly, they discover Uncle Henry missing and Aunt Julie very remote.
"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. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dwight-allen0/support

The network had no idea how well the series would perform - its only previous showcase was as an hour-long audition on the 1940 series "Forecast" - so running out and getting a sponsor didn't seem to be important at that particular stage. Besides, in the show's salad days, the guest stars that did appear were of considerably low wattage. But as "Suspense" grew in popularity and began to attract a more upscale acting clientele anxious to participate in “radio's outstanding theater of thrills,” finding someone to pick up the weekly tab became a top priority for CBS. Luckily, in December 2, 1943, the series found its 'angel' in the sponsorship of Roma Wines. "Suspense's" long association with Roma (and co-branded Cresta Blanca) was good for both the series and the company; a bigger budget attracted bigger guest stars and, as the program began to climb in the ratings, the company began to enjoy substantial profits. This fruitful arrangement came to an end on November 20, 1947. Roma had been admittedly seeing other programs behind "Suspense's" back and the bright array of top Hollywood talent began to dim a bit as many of the stars began to tire of the program. CBS rolled the dice and took one heck of a chance in keeping "Suspense" on the air; the network still felt that the series was popular with audiences and they agreed to sustain the program until another sponsor could be found.How serious was CBS about keeping its prestige show? Beginning January 3, 1948, "Suspense" was moved to Saturday nights and was broadcast from 8:00 to 9:00 PM Eastern Standard Time. That's right: a full hour of “Suspense.” Hour-long dramatic shows were a gamble at best; many stars tended to shun these programs - a half-hour show was grueling enough to get through - and only a few, "The Lux Radio Theater" being the best example, managed to continue on the air for very long. But Lux had a sponsor all too willing to write checks on a weekly basis...while CBS, without a sponsor to back them up, was still the sole support of "Suspense." What's more, the network learned soon enough that by doubling the show from half-hour to hour-long status, they had to double the pay of the individuals working on the show as well. (Networks, as a rule, cringe at the thought of giving money away.) To jazz up "Suspense," CBS hired actor Robert Montgomery to be the host and occasional performer, figuring that on the weeks when they had to resort to a less-than "A" list of guest stars, at least Montgomery would be around to provide a certain degree of glitter. Montgomery, at it turned out, made appearances in quite a few of the hour-long shows, including both the premiere, “The Black Curtain”, and most notably in “Night Must Fall”, which allowed him to reprise the role he had created in the 1937 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer motion picture of the same name. Many of the hour-long "Suspense" shows were movie adaptations in the "Lux Radio Theater" mold, including “Deadline at Dawn,” “Crossfire” and “Nightmare” -- the last of which was filmed in 1947 as “Fear in the Night”. There were even two productions that, it could be said, acted as previews of coming attractions: the series' 1948 productions of “In a Lonely Place” and “The House by the River” were brought to the silver screen in 1950. Several of "Suspense's" celebrated classics were also repeated during the hour-long experiment, having been lengthened to fit the new format. "Suspense's" hour-long experiment closed up shop on May 15, 1948 and, close to two months later, the show moved back to its cozy Thursday night berth in its familiar half-hour form through September 1962.00:00:00.000 = INTRODUCTION00:01:54.350 = “The Burning Court” (June 17, 1942)00:31:24.029 = The Devil In The Summer House (November 03, 1942)01:00:53.552 = The Bride Vanishes (December 01, 1942)01:30:31.934 = Till Death Do Us Part (December 15, 1942)02:00:00.615 = Nothing Up My Sleeve (January 05, 1943)02:29:24.419 = The Devil's Saint (January 19, 1943)02:58:52.578 = Last Night (March 06, 1943)03:28:25.102 = Uncle Henry's Rose Bush (June 29, 1943)03:57:52.047 = The White Rose Murders (July 06, 1943)04:27:08.240 = The Fountain Plays (August 10, 1943)SOURCES AND ESSENTIAL WEB LINKS…This episode is sponsored by http://RadioArchives.comWeird Darkness Retro Radio theme by Storyblocks.= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = ="I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness." — John 12:46WeirdDarkness® - is a registered trademark.
