Thanks so much for all of your support, and especially one of thank Collus,
0:57
and I set him access to our premium site, which we do with

all donations of seven dollars or more. Well, now it's time for today's
1:07
episode of the Adventures of Frank Race, The Adventure of the Fat Man's Loot.
1:14
The Adventures of Frank Race starring Tom Collin. The War changed many things,
1:29
the base of the Earth and the people on it. Before the war,
1:33
Frank Race worked as an attorney, but he traded his law books by
1:37
the clok and dagger of the Oss. And when it was over, his
1:41
former life was over too. Adventure had become his business, the Adventures of
1:46
Frank Race. And now we joined Pranke Race for the Adventure of the Fat
2:06
Man's Loop. Nothing like a Turkish baths for complete relaxation. I haven't had
2:15
an assignment for two weeks. In the heat and humidity of the steam room
2:20
at Baron's Baths on Third Avenue were rapidly dissappeting any desire I might have had
2:23
forever working again. But the door opened and I was joined by a familiar
2:28
figure who made his way through the whiskey steam of only abandon of a cab
2:31
driver and a fog hi race going here melted and ran right down to train
2:40
a race over here. Only car long enough to tin into one lotst It
2:47
will a guys to have to go looking for You are the only one which
2:52
has ever made me get dressed up in a towel. It's good for him.
2:53
Mark opens your board. Yeah, let's get out of here. Look
2:58
at the color of it. Be lucky if I'm not snatch, show up
3:01
the streets and set the one Indian reservation. You don't lugg it went into
3:05
wait outside were elected because somebody's looking for Ted Coleman, the universal Shorty Rice
3:10
must be a jewelry Kison Massada, I mean a dimon left in the world.
3:15
It hasn't been stalling, all right. One cold dive in a pool
3:19
and can get out of here. Ted Coleman Insurance Company vice president, with
3:27
the eyes of a heavyweight champion. He doesn't talk about it, but one
3:30
of his souvenirs from the war is the Congressional Medal of Honor. As we
3:36
came into his office, he got up from behind the desk to shake hands
3:38
on the desk for a couple of items of jewelry. It would have made
3:40
whistles come from the Vanderbilts. And on the wall behind the desk hung a
3:46
map of Europe. Hello, Race, what do you think of these trinkets?
3:50
Pretty bubbles? There must be past No stones could be that large,
3:53
No, Race, the real they were been larger before they were cutting reset.
3:58
Who can belong to? I'm unfortunate people who are no longer with us,
4:02
people who were murdered in Europe during the war. I've been waiting for
4:06
some of this stuff to turn up. This is only a small part of
4:10
what I'm looking for, And you want me to find the rest? Yes,
4:14
it's gonna be easy, Race, because these jewels are part of the
4:16
loot confiscated by Herman Gerring. Oh fat stuff himself. I ain't Caring's dead,
4:21
ain't he? Yes, he's dead? All right, but obviously somebody
4:25
who was close to him is still alive, live and living like a king
4:29
with stuff like this, this position. I don't like the idea of that
4:32
race neither, no I am. Where do I start? A Nazi captain
4:38
named Ludwig Strauss was in charge of Gerring's jewel collection. I've checked all the
4:42
war crime records. Strauss has never been picked up. It was in a
4:45
couple of years to change his appearance and his name. Better start in Berlin.
4:49
That was Strauss's home. And here's some notes on him. Farmer addresses
4:55
names of it of my friends, many of whom were taken care of at
4:59
Nuremberg. Here's a picture of him with Gering the gambling casino garring to the
5:04
background, and that's Strouss getting ready to throw the days. He's almost as
5:09
fat as Garry tell me Ted one of these duels. Tune in got the
5:13
place a seconding rid on the map mar Sat France, Torino and Geneva,
5:16
Italy and the necklace in Barcelona, Spain. The als are in the notes
5:20
I gave you. I guess you paid out of fortune and claims on this.
5:26
This might sound funny coming from an insurance man race. But I wish
5:30
we'd paid more, because that would mean that some of the owners would be
5:32
alive to collect. I want that Strauss race. I wish I could go
5:40
after him myself. Hell, I'll do my best ted Irene's business for Mark
5:44
and me. We will take a plane to Berlin in the morning. Berlin,
5:53
capital city of the losing team. And yet they didn't act like losers.
5:59
They seem better better fed than the rest of Europe. And the old
6:02
arrogance was returning. You could feel it behind their thin, careful smiles.
6:09
The conversation was limited to two negative statements. None of them had ever been
6:13
Nazis, and none of them knew anything about Ludwig Strauss. I listen,
6:20
sounds like a party going ont someplace. You yeah, right across the street.
6:24
Then it must be a nightclub, brother, that's for me. I
6:27
would just love to park me tight carcass and inhale one short thing, all
6:31
right, life. The speed had been almost deserted, but the interior of
6:35
the club wasn't. It was more than a nightclub, and it wasn't pre
6:39
ordinary patrons. I was gambling going on, and it was a strictly big
6:44
time wow. Hey, we must have gotten off the wrong plane. This
6:50
looks like Mighty Colin. It looks better than that market. You know,
6:53
I think we hit the jackpot. You know what do you mean the croupiate
6:56
that dice table in the corner, one of the green ice shad Yeah,
6:59
yeah, but I don't get you haven't forgotten this picture? Ted Coleman getting
7:01
any Hey, same guy? All right, and I pat you with straws
7:08
and garry. What's our play? I let's see if we can't roll a
7:11
couple of sevens? All right? Excuse me, Hey, your bets please,
7:16
I'd like to make a private bet. Please find here all pets on
7:20
the table. Well, he wouldn't really want me to place this photograph on
7:24
the table, bet, did you? Kids? I'll ask the questions.
7:29
Where's a lot of big stross? He's dead. I want to talk to
7:31
us in private, if you'll step this way, please, all right?
7:40
Where is it him? I do not know. I could turn this picture
7:43
over to the denacification of I've asked not a Nazi. You know, I
7:47
believe it, don't you? Come on? I haven't seen them since just
7:53
before the occupation. He used to come here. There'd be night and then
7:57
he disappeared. Keep talking. That is all I can too, Carl is
8:00
right, is what any of us can tell you. I couldn't help overhearing.
8:05
I was behind the drive looking out the window. I couldn't help myself
8:09
me that did they have a picture doing? You? I am the wife
8:11
of the men you are seeking? How Ludwig's trouse? She puts the statement
8:16
like a hand grenade, and Mark and I reacted. No picture was going
8:20
to rattle this woman. She was cold, cold but beautiful. Right gee,
8:26
what she's saying? Where is your husband? Fastrous? I'm not sure?
8:31
Nor by, Oh Sweden. I wish I could help you. You
8:35
see, I hated my husband, but you love American investigators. If somebody
8:39
like you, that might not be hard to learn? What have you got
8:43
against a little vinny? I did not share his beliefs, you see.
8:46
I was that you were not a Nazi. Did not believe Oh of course
8:50
I do. Of course. If I sound surprised, it's only because I
8:54
keep thinking of how much damage Adolph managed to do all by himself. Come
9:00
on, Mark, let's get some fresh air. So here we go again,
9:11
man, which we try a place? Norway? Are Swedeen neither one
9:13
mark we're being stirred. No Nancy officer, hide out and away are Sweden.
9:18
People discovered them. They turn him apart. Then for new Thinkstraus is
9:22
still here? No too many people am I recognizing? That means we got
9:26
nothing but the whole wide oil so car has been telling us quick story.
9:33
Here. May I give you a right to you a hotel? Said the
9:37
guy who was running the crack game. I know you are here someplace.
9:41
I just run to help you. Get out of the car and walk over
9:43
here with your hands up. Oh there you are on the doorway. I
9:46
got the stairs somebody else's car. I was making a break for him.
9:52
Stop, don't hit. Came out of Frank all right the side. I'm
10:01
gonna commented that carr and get out of here. I think it is a
10:11
race. Come ahead. I lost a lot of bloody be a prettenty gentm
10:15
of bandaging. That ain't mine. I got a medical from the American City.
10:18
I'll be back to see tonight. We won't be here tonight. Wait
10:22
a minute, Wait a minute, he said, you can't move out of
10:24
here for a couple of days. He said, sides, Well, I'll
10:26
see what's going off on a wild course chase. So we know something.
10:28
We do know something, Mark something. It should have been obvious, something
10:31
that Froz Strauss made even more obvious, Like what like steering us north?
10:35
That should mean that Strauss is someplace in the south. Yeah, yeah,
10:39
figures where place you mentioned last night curling? Now you're guessing race. But
10:45
for the reasons Strap spent all his spare time gambling, and a man doesn't
10:48
change his habit to him. Yeah, but there are other places. Yeah,
10:52
you get that man out of my pocket? Really, Mark thee Colman
10:54
gave me. Yeah right, Yeah, look at the place that's circling than
10:58
red when the jewels are fine. Yeah, yeah, see what you mean?
11:05
They all fan how to run Mount a Carlo. He goes to a
11:07
different place each time he unloads some of the stuff, but all points to
11:09
a home base in the middle. This I gotta buy while you ride it,
11:13
buy something else. Two tickets on tonight's Riviera expressed the Mount of Carlog
11:26
my brother the kid and what a train. Oh, I know what they
11:31
do with all American cattle cuss when the cows refused to ride them anymore.
11:35
Only a few more hours. Man, you try to come and man,
11:37
how can I sleep when this guy next to me is using my shoulder for
11:41
a pillar? Come on, come on, wake up, monsieur. What's
11:46
the fun asleep? For a minute, I thought you dropped dead. You
11:50
gentlemen are tullies. You were in the jewelry business. A buying trip.
11:54
Oh, one can pick up some wonderful barging have died there about Carlo might
12:00
be a good spot, Monte Carlo. I'm afraid you would be disappointed.
12:05
Most of the jewels one season, Monte Carlo, I won't buy you a
12:07
rich American women ladiers must have some jewelry on their own. I guess it
12:13
myself. I'm older. They get a losing streak at the casino again,
12:16
you will be disappointed. The regular residence of Monaco are not permitted to play
12:20
the casino. It is against the law. Really, you would find very
12:26
everybody seems to have a suggestion in the world I should go. I do
12:31
not understands you. Perhaps you don't will sip it? Oh this is my
12:35
station, monsieur. Yeah, are they wait a minute away? You forgot
12:41
some Oh that is my lunch? I overslept. My wife will ever looped
12:48
me prepared? Please? Accept it with my compliment. Thanks. Hey,
12:52
I wouldn't need that about with your marks. Space is a guy with just
12:56
a farm. I'm hungry. You can wait a while. I don't think
13:00
a look anyhow? Oh good that title over here? I look why throwing
13:07
my quick out the window. We'll return of the adventures of Frank Race in
13:20
just about one minute. Now, back to the Adventures of Frank Race.
13:35
That homemade bomb would have done in the close quarters of the compartment. I
13:39
hate to think about it, but I got it away from mark me to
13:41
heave just in time. Even saw it tore up a section of track next
13:45
to us and broken up windows on the train and make it look like the
13:46
aftermath of a sandlot ball game. The blast couldn't be traced to us.
13:52
After the authorities finished their rather confused investigation, we went on to Monte Carlo
13:56
and settled into the hotel Crown Mallow. Hello, mister Ray. Yes,
14:03
well, I'm Helen Varragot. You don't know me, but the sound of
14:07
you i'd like to Well, that's just what I'm calling about. You see,
14:11
I'm a fellow American. Yeah, looks don't match your boys, I
14:18
mean loaves and for company. From home. I've been here for four years,
14:22
sort of self imposed exile. Every time a new American comes down,
14:28
I hear about it. I'm viola up to the film of the team.
14:31
What time and wear four o'clock waiting the middle of the house to Helen Farrygod
14:43
was something you see in dreams or I'm picture postcards. You could count seven
14:46
different seeds of blue in the Mediterranean as you look down from the hillside.
14:52
But beautiful as the sea was. Helen Ferragod could snatch your attention half trying
14:56
O My blind ads don't always turn out this well. To right was definitely
15:01
say the same thing? Will it be two or something more stimulating? This
15:07
is definitely quantra women and I'll join you, two quants. Please, when
15:15
we get our drinks, I'll introduce you to my protector. You see,
15:20
I always invite a couple of extra people, just to have them on hand
15:24
as the blind day should turn out to be disappointing. They're out on the
15:28
balcony. Will they always be out on the balcony? Now next time we'll
15:33
be alone? Oh, thank you? And now the balcony. There were
15:45
three of them, two men and a woman. One of the men was
15:48
an American businessman. Then Carpenter been on the paunchy side. Yeah, the
15:52
distracted, futile air of the Americans get when they've been abroad for too long.
15:56
Then there was Rudolph rich German, right down at the urbill Heidelberg Dueling
16:00
Sky. I needed no introduction to the woman. We meet again, mister
16:04
Ice, Yes, missus Strauss, despite all obstacles, we meet again.
16:08
Oh, you know you can chat while I get on ra Well. I
16:15
had to run in with some of your friends before I left Berlin. They
16:18
were not my friends. But there's no point in telling you that you don't
16:22
want to listen the boys Yes to the words. Perhaps in time I could
16:26
convince you that this is hardly the place we'll be meeting again tonight, perhaps
16:33
dinner. All right, Race, I'd like you to sell an argument for
16:36
us, But you've just come from the states Man. A rictor thinks that
16:38
America's offer keeping Germany down. I told him, once we've won, we
16:42
forgot about all that nonsense. Sure we do. Carp places like Belson and
16:47
Dark Hour, easy to begin. There you are. I think I did
16:51
know that the note of Ione and mister Dacia's voice, I get that way
16:55
around people like carbon dam What do you mean? I mean? I think
16:59
you set the wall up and a nice cozy spot like this. You can't
17:02
forget anything. You weren't hurt. I was too old, you were too
17:06
only had no sons. It forgured easy, Oh tell her and I had
17:11
all. I am afraid Carton that does not like it. It makes it
17:15
even I don't like carving it. I'm surprised by you on my side by,
17:21
mister Race, because I am a German, I was not a No.
17:25
I won't say that. It is too commonplace coming to me. I
17:29
might believe it, you should believe it. He lost his family at Dah.
17:33
I'm sorry. I was a jeweler, mister Race. My company was
17:37
well, it was comparable to your tiffnis. Now I have nothing, nothing
17:41
but the desire to find one man and to make him pay, not for
17:45
the jewels, but for my wife, my child, Yes blood dextra house.
17:57
Missus run's quite an establishment, I, miss Fargut, is very very
18:00
messu nice of you to drive me down, Miss Farret. Wish I do
18:06
as I am tiling, monsieur. I guess the casino collects quite a bit
18:08
of revenue. From Miss very Good and another guest, Missieur Carpenter place every
18:12
Lee and loises. Miss Fargo does not gamble. How about Director. He
18:18
spends most of his spa time at the casino, usually as we the other
18:22
lady, missus Strauss, he's madness, this guy bleed. We need to
18:29
It makes us laugh. That was always funny. Collector says, you wish
18:34
to go directly to your tailing, missuse. No, I wish to go
18:37
directly to the cable office. I need a little information was at the cable
18:45
to Ted Coleman. It was the sense that little Extras was in Mota Carlo,
18:48
were not far away, and there was a better than even chance that
18:52
I had already met him ap. Knowing it, I went back to my
18:55
hotel, took a fast nap and waited for the answers. Oh over the
19:00
casino, getting my pockets picked better, rolet wheel, Oh brother might salty.
19:06
Oh yeah, it's a cable for you picked it up at the desk.
19:08
Good? Then what was it saying? M blooding information? Coleman dug
19:15
up about Strauss went to school in England and the United States, and English
19:21
is one of the languages. He speaks like a name, So how does
19:23
that help? It helps Bloody man his physical appearance change. Heir died,
19:29
new name. He might be almost anybody who meet. Might even mean an
19:32
American businessman named Dan Carbon or German name Rudolf Richter. Yeah, might even
19:37
be my grandmother William Spot what a case? Mark? Would you say that
19:41
the piece of jewelry would be an appropriate gift for a lovely living only if
19:45
he was going to marry the damned so he could get your clause on the
19:47
thing in hocket if things got tough one, I've been thinking of buying a
19:49
brooch, a large diamond brooch with a settlemental of lame. Are you off
19:55
your rock? No Mark, I want you to go to a jewelring and
19:56
have one made up. Race you listen to him the name. I want
20:00
to pace a job that will look like the real McCoy. Bloody your flash
20:03
and no value. That's different. You know that's cool. I've got a
20:06
dress, middle lady for dinner. You look different by candle light. Race
20:18
your eyes they're not so so cold and adamant? Different yourself make me feel
20:23
like I miss judge Jim. As a matter of fact, I've been feeling
20:27
sorry about him. You can make it up to me. I brought you
20:30
something about help. Will you accepted? Got white? It's lovely nothing really,
20:40
I would like to thank you, really, thank you. This is
20:44
not the place. Shall we got on terrace? Yes? No, I
20:53
can thank you. She came into my house. I said she was cold,
20:59
but she looked her lips took me in a rocket trip at the equator
21:04
and nothing flat. I hated to break away, but it wasn't a matter
21:08
of choice. That gun doesn't look very friendly or race? All right?
21:15
Oh, move them. I turned the gun toward the sky and Rictor and
21:19
I struggling for it. You're the power of a madman. Caught his fingers,
21:23
bent them back into the gun. But as I straightened his foot shot
21:26
I caught me into the chin. Are you all right? Yeah, we'll
21:33
be in eight minutes. Gun kind of man. The race? You better
21:38
picking up to Helena's thought, I'd like to go up there myself. Must
21:49
have been quite an evening, mister race lady. We'll be all right as
21:53
soon as she's head some sleep. I gave her a sleeping pal. Better
21:56
keep an eye and call me if you see Rictor wandering around. Any plans
22:00
I will. You know you should have had dinner with me would have been
22:04
less healthy. And also I know how to be grateful for expensive gifts.
22:11
Glad you're impressed. I like to impress people, especially beautiful women. You're
22:15
impressed, Mado all right. She gave are the brooch and told him to
22:19
put it in the wall safe. It would mind driving it down. I
22:23
let the taxi go on. I want to stop at the casino. Not
22:26
at all? Oh cool. I am glad you asked him to drive.
22:37
You're done, Monsieur Rice. I had the us to visit the casino this
22:41
evening. I thought you were opposed to gambling. One is human. I
22:45
don't lose your shirt with my salary, monsieur. Neither they ouse nor I
22:48
can get you into much trouble. I left and wandered round the casino looking
22:53
Bruno Rictor. I wasn't at the roulette tables. He wasn't at the dice
22:56
tables. I went into the background room watched the play for a while.
23:00
I decided to give it up. When I came back through the main room
23:03
of the casino, I saw a familiar face, then Carbon and he wasn't
23:08
happy. Shouldn't these chips. Take him off my tab. I'll give you
23:11
a check having a losing street carponer. Oh it's you. Gambling is an
23:17
expensive pastime. So I was giving on advice you haven't been asked for.
23:19
I'd like to talk to him. Not now, I'm catching a plane for
23:22
FN. In what form the sellsome Italian holdings? If it's any of you?
23:26
O? All right? What isn't Miss Felder just called? It's about
23:33
mister Richtera. He just killed himself up with de Villa. He jumped from
23:36
the balcony. He's down there, raced by the rocks. Their men coming
23:47
along the beach with torches to recover the body who made it was too upset
23:51
to sleep. We came out on the balcony. Rudolph came in and he
23:53
started to scream, something about being trapped. Any chill here, Look take
24:00
it easy with her. She's in fan shape. Look, dear, let
24:06
me call a doctor for no. No, I don't need a doctor.
24:11
Well are you satisfied? Mister has mean you can leave my husband alone.
24:18
Now. You can't do anything to a dead man. Lad. You might
24:21
as well know Ludvic changed his name to Rudolph Rifte. They just came.
24:27
I tired to help, but I couldn't. It was frightening it. Can
24:33
I do anything to help? Miss No? Thank you? N I don't
24:40
suppose you'd want anything around to remind you of me, missus starless. Yeah,
24:45
I am. You have that brooch back? Yes, take it into
24:49
it out? Gave me alone? Would you get me the broach please?
24:55
I'm yes, sir, I think I will right over year. But thanks.
25:00
You can stop performing now, Maiden. What do you mean, Race?
25:03
I mean that Rudolph Rictor that was his real name, didn't jump off
25:08
that balcony. He was pushed because he didn't believe made a story anymore,
25:12
and he was getting too close to little Vig's trous All right, Race,
25:17
go on, I don't have to go any further. I'm already there all
25:22
him. Yes, why didn't you put that broots in the safe? I
25:26
felt good you didn't forget you knew it was paced and you are a native
25:32
of mate Carlo, I am because it's against the law for local citizens to
25:36
go into the casino. You're being a ridiculous mischief. Well we can make
25:38
sure. Let's send a copy of your fingerprints to a MG and Nuremberg that
25:42
won't be necessary. Race, very neat those girl, hen Robot. I've
25:48
enjoyed this meal ticket for too long to have you mess it up. Very
25:52
nice front, rich American girls a very common over him. So you poses
25:56
one, give little Wig a perfect cover up his house boy and her,
26:00
and he enjoys the luxury of the billow except for serving your tea parties,
26:03
of course. Are you ready to make the jump now? Race? I
26:07
must you out a big push. I'll jump. I'm sorry it had to
26:18
be this moment, yes, so am I. No, there's nothing you
26:23
know, but he's there. You know I care for you. Mis Understanding,
26:30
baby, I meant that I'd rather see a little big stretching roup at
26:33
Nuremberg. I was talking about us race, you and me. Oh,
26:37
I wouldn't plan on us meet him. I've been a stage Georg Johnny at
26:41
times. But at jail door Johnny, Yeah, I'm afraid you'll be too
26:44
old man attractive at the time you get out. No such language. Are
26:48
you just sit there quietly? Well? I invite some guests to the party.
26:52
Operate him, get me the Mota Carlo Police. The Adventures of Frank
27:04
Race starring Tom Collins with Tony Barrett as Mark Donovan comes to You from Hollywood.
27:08
Others heard in tonight's cast were Lilian Bayef, Michael Lann Parrott, Williams,
27:12
Herbert, Jack Crucian and Harry Lane. This series is written and directed
27:17
by Buckley Angel and Joel Murcott. The music is composed and played by Ivan
27:21
Did Barnes be sure to be with us again this same time next week for
27:25
another dramatic chapter in the Adventures of Frank Race Art Gilmore speaking. This is
27:30
a Brucel's production. Welcome back. Well, of course, this episode had
28:08
nothing to do with the Fat Man program, which we ended last week.
28:14
This is a fascinating episode just because it takes on a frustration not typical in
28:22
the Golden age radio emphasis. Usually the post war emphasis is on the is
28:32
strictly on those ex Nazis who are still at large, which I think was
28:42
the main point of this particular show, as well as all of the work
28:48
that goes into the rebuilding and kind of a hall for peace and understanding and
28:55
letting bygones we got bygones as move forward into the post war world. Frank
29:03
Race definitely the war is still very much fresh in his mind, so not
29:12
ready to just say, you know, I forgive and forget and sharing a
29:17
frustration that doubtless many share it and was rarely expressed in media is that as
29:23
who as soldiers, as Americans were over there, they find all of these
29:30
people in Germany who swear up and down they weren't Nazis, and that line
29:36
I was just you know, I'm just amazed by all the damage that Adolf
29:40
was able to do by himself. And unless we forget Adolf Hitler and the
29:45
Nazis, they won elections in Germany. That's how they first were able to
29:52
work their way into political power. So clearly there was a level of frustration
30:00
that there were people who supported and backed the Nazis before they came to power
30:07
and through their time and power, who were simply denying any involvement even though
30:15
they were truly involved in making them a powerful force in the world. So
30:21
it's a very interesting and different portrayal. And this does seem like is a
30:29
good opportunity to announce a plan a goal for a new podcast beginning next year.
30:38
This came as a result of a part of a suggestion by Brian Ashby,
30:48
who's a long time friend of the program, he emailed me back in
30:52
August for future consideration. I've always thought that it would be great they have
30:56
a podcast dedicated to the wonderful patriotic radio programs produced during World War Two.
31:02
The podcasts could cover a lot of ground Bob Hope, Lux Radio, theater,
31:07
great Gilder Sleeve musicals, even news broadcast with the common theme being the
31:11
War as a backhop. Just planning a seed for future consideration, and I
31:17
definitely thought about that, and I thought it was something that needed to be
31:26
done. And you know, I think the big element for the form in
31:30
doing additional podcasts has been the issue of just time. But time is I
31:40
think truly running out for so many of the World War Two veterans that we
31:48
have with us today, and I think it's important to honor what they did
31:56
and to really if we could do something very different about war. So we're
32:01
planning a limited a series podcast. It'll be called The War, and we're
32:09
working on I'll be working on some details and it will start airing a year
32:15
from yesterday. Lord Willing and the Creek don't rise. You know, certain,
32:19
you know there are things beyond our control, but that could happen.
32:22
But I am planning to inaugurate that series starting November the eleventh of twenty thirteen,
32:35
running through June of twenty fourteen and D Day all the way to August
32:42
fifteenth into August and the commemoration of VJ Day. So it'll be an exciting
32:50
podcast. Today, Brian sent along some good suggestions if you have anyone's from
32:57
World War two, and we're gonna keep it to uf that was done in
33:00
World War Two for the most part. I may throw in a couple of
33:07
programs that were say oss stories that could not be told while the war was
33:14
going on, but could only be told after the war. But we're mostly
33:16
we're going to stick to a wartime material. Uh Tom, who we mentioned
33:22
the top of show. He asked a question over on Facebook, I no
33:24
needed some money for your show through PayPal. It said it was going to
33:29
uh Kin Kilts. Is this your account or a website that was set up
33:34
to look at like yours? Love great detectors and dragging it I'm wonderful way
33:37
to relax and fall asleep in the evening, much like weding a book to
33:39
forget about the daily stress right before you go to sleep. Well that's a
33:44
good question. M. King Helts was the name of a business my wife
33:49
was running several years back, and it's the name on the PayPal account.
33:55
And we've you know, I've never figured out how to alter the business name.
34:02
So we share that same PayPal account and so that's why the name shows
34:07
up there. It's caused a little confusion the past and at a situation where
34:12
someone did not recognize it on their credit card receive. But yeah, that
34:16
is the name that shows and there's no error there. All right, Well,
34:21
that we'll do it for today. Join us tomorrow for the first episode
34:27
in a new series, Call the Police, and then join us back here
34:30
on Monday for the Adventures of Frank Race. In the meantime, send your
