1:15
we're going to get into an episode of Nick Carter. We had several
1:21
lost episodes in between last week's show and this week's two. Actually that's not
1:27
really several, but at any rate here now from April to twenty third,
1:32
nineteen forty sixty. It is the case of the Little Old Ladies. It's
1:38
another case for that most famous of all men hunters, the detective whose ability
1:42
at solving crime is unequaled in the history of detective fiction. Nick Carter,
1:48
that's too detective. But mister Sweet, that sort of thing is entirely out
2:02
of my line. Yes, I suppose it is, mister Carter, But
2:05
after all, you are our official investigator. All right, all right,
2:08
I'll have one of my men take care of me. Now tell me again,
2:10
what do you want me to do. One of our clients is being
2:14
sued as a result of an automobile accident in which a woman was very severely
2:16
injured. Our client got the name of one witness, but another witness got
2:21
away before we could find out who he was. Now our client says he
2:25
was a very tall, thin chat with red hair, probably in his late
2:29
twenties. A bystander told him that he thought this man lived just a couple
2:34
of blocks away. That's all we know about him, but his testimony is
2:38
extremely important to us in our hundred pense of the case. We must find
2:42
him at plants, all right, mister Sweet, we'll find him. Where
2:45
was the collision corner a burst of avenue and second place on the north side,
2:49
and this red haired young man lives a couple of blocks from there,
2:51
in some unknown direction. That's what we believe, mister Carter. All right,
2:54
all right, I'll send mister mcglennard at one. Thank you. As
2:58
soon as we have something definite, i'll let you know. All began a
3:12
case, the lack of which had never been encountered by Nick Carter, master
3:15
detective. A search for a missing witness seemed like a simple routine job.
3:21
But Nick didn't know about the two old ladies who lived in the little house
3:24
on the edge of town. You learn all about it. In the case
3:29
of the little old ladies. You say you don't know nobody was right here.
3:38
No I don't. People. I'm tryumph all the jobs for a great
3:44
detective like me, going from door to door looking for a guy who probably
3:49
don't even exist. I never knew Nick to fall for such a dumb studt
3:53
before, and he had to wish it on me. Do no way,
3:57
I don't quit forty seven houses I've been to, Nobody ever seen a guy
4:00
like I'm looking for. But they heard about every kind of fellow, but
4:03
the kind I want. If p who is it? Please? Good morning?
4:09
I wonder if you can tell me anything about a tall, thin young
4:12
man about twenty six twenty eight years old, with red hair. Well,
4:15
now, let me see. I know almost everybody in this neighborhood live here
4:18
a great many years. If you'll come in, I'll ask my sister if
4:23
she recalls such a person. Am I. I don't want to put you
4:26
to no trouble, no trouble at all. We'll be glad to help you
4:30
if we can do. Come please right of course I want to find this
4:35
fellow, So if you you do it is? Will you come here a
4:41
minute? Dear? What is it? Mary? Can I? Oh?
4:45
It is? This is mister Why no McGlen man, chief, mister McGlen.
4:51
How do you do mister McGlen, how are you? Mister McGlenn says
4:56
he's looking for a tall, thin young man with red hair, about twenty
4:59
six twenty eight years old. Do we know such a man? Will let
5:03
me see there with James Bond. He used to live down the block next
5:10
to Moses, but he moved away last year. His hair was really almost
5:14
blonde. Dear, do you suppose he could mean water Castle? Your sister?
5:18
He must be near at thirty five? I suppose you're right he did.
5:23
How about the young ed Jaren lived over on the next street. Oh
5:28
no, sister, he's short, almost as short as cousin elmer Is.
5:32
Oh look, lady, it's awful good of you to take all this trouble
5:35
just to help behind this young man. But I do know what trouble at
5:39
all, mister McGlen. We just don't seem to be able to marry.
5:43
Maybe mister McGlen would like a cigar while he's of course, I'll get him
5:47
one. They're in the box on the table behind him. No, don't
5:49
get off, mister mclen. I'll get it for you. I hate to
5:54
have you doing all this formulated if you don't know just where you are just
6:01
done, you feel on the deck of your neck, and if you don't
6:05
stay very quiet, it will go off and you'll never find this young man
6:10
you're not looking for, not looking for? Should I tie him up now?
6:15
Mary Is? He did tie him up right in his chair so he
6:18
won't have to move it all, and tucked him up so he can't move
6:23
very well. Marry I what the road is we plan? I just want
6:29
to find a mister mclnn. We know why you're here. You came here
6:34
to try to track us into a confession, but we would use what for
6:40
you now? That you've found out where we live. We'll have to go
6:43
away. Of course, that's why we have to tie you up so you
6:46
can't follow it. Oh, Mary, Bill isn't going to like this.
6:51
He trusted us, and now look what has happened. We've failed him.
6:56
I know, I can't imagine how this man found out, but I'm afraid
7:00
Bill will never forgive us. Sister. What is the name of all Latonio
7:04
your name's talking about? You know well enough, mister McGlenn. If you
7:09
don't have to ask us what we've done, If you didn't know, why
7:13
are you here? There? Now? There? He can't get out of
7:16
that, I'm sure. Look, ladies, Carter ain't kind of like this,
7:21
not at talk, he says, I always get things balled up,
7:25
and now he's Do you worry, mister McGlen. He can't blame you.
7:30
We're just too clever for you and you're mister Carter. Come, sister,
7:34
we must pack and just what it is that all good thieves say? Oh,
7:41
yes, we must pack and square. There you are Waldo, were
7:58
as a bird, Thanks, Kibby, Oh can't move as stiff as aboard.
8:03
You'll be all right in a military two I'll let you wal you say,
8:07
these two old ladies tied you up so as to give them time to
8:11
move out. Yeah, that's what they said, Nick. I thought I
8:13
had the goods on him for something. I didn't know nothing about it.
8:16
I couldn't you guess what that something was? What they said? Yeah,
8:18
not a single guest could I give, Nick, But there is altogether two
8:22
cagy for me. One of them said something about thieves. Said that was
8:26
only nobody way. Nick. They forgot to ask you, how did you
8:30
happen to find me here? That was easy. Patsy told us what roots
8:33
you were planning to follow. We followed you. You would called up the
8:35
house on the left, but you never got to the one on the right,
8:39
this house being after it was a good bet that you were here.
8:41
Nick unlocked the door, and here you were waiting for it, waiting for
8:46
you. Andyone else could I be doing? But wait ah? You and
8:50
you were pumped. Josh. Listen, there's something going on here that's bigger
8:54
than the Lost Witness, and I'm gonna find out what it is. But
8:58
what can we do? Nick Aldo doesn't know what it's all about. The
9:01
old ladies have gone, So what do we have to go on nothing.
9:05
I've gotta find something, and the best place to start looking is right here
9:07
in this house. Search every room thoroughly. Nope, that's the thing.
9:11
I'll get busy both of you. And all you found was that burned paper.
9:26
That's all passing, And what good that is? I'm going if I
9:28
can see when a piece of paper is burned as bad as that? Why
9:33
so you can't even see if it had write none it or not? They
9:35
give up. Oh that's where science comes in, Waldo sience can tell Nick
9:41
what was on that paper? I'll take my hat off to it. Even
9:43
all Shimcotter couldn't do that. The use of infra red light and reading the
9:48
writing on a burned paper is one of the new developments that. Did you
9:50
find anything worthwhile? Maybe? Yes? Maybe no. Fortunately, that burned
9:56
paper we found on the ashtray was a good grade of paper and didn't trumble
9:58
before I could look at up work. Well, what'd you find? Nick?
10:01
That piece of paper was really two separate pieces of paper. One was
10:05
a wrapper of a bundle of bills, showing that the package had put up
10:07
by the first Mutual Bank on Canal Street and had contained one hundred dollars probably
10:11
and small bills. The other was part of a letter, so what did
10:15
it say? All I could make out was another month, dear aunts,
10:18
it'll be safe to use the money, so we and that's all fact.
10:24
Why they help that is fancy. Do we have any record of the first
10:26
mutual bank being robbed in the last year or so? I'll see Nick.
10:30
The money this rapper was ut obviously came straight from the bank. No,
10:33
nothing on the first mutual at all. But the record show there was a
10:37
payroll robbery about six months ago in which the payroll messenger was robbed of They
10:41
one hundred and fifty three thousand dollars that came from that bank. What was
10:45
the kerm that was robbed? It was the Brownson Industrial Corporation just across the
10:48
river, you know that big plant on Market Street. All right, let's
10:52
call on the Brownson Industrial Corporation. I'm going to see this thing through to
10:58
the end. You want to see me, mister I do. You're the
11:09
payroll messenger. It was rabbed about six months ago. How are you?
11:13
This is Nick Carter? Tell him much you know about it? Oh?
11:16
Okay, Yeah, the guards that came with me from the bank left me
11:20
at the side door the office building as usual, and I came along inside.
11:26
There's a short corner there, about ten feet long, with a turn
11:28
at the end leads into the general office. Well, I was just coming
11:33
to the turn when a couple of old ladies stop me. Later later he
11:37
said, two old ladies. Yeah, this couple old ladies stopped me and
11:41
asked me how to get to the metal shop. I stopped to tell him,
11:45
when all of a sudden I got a sack on the back of the
11:46
head. Not me cold, then what happened? How do I know?
11:50
I was out cold? And when I came to the assistant cashier was bending
11:54
over me finally wake me up. My money bag was cut open. The
11:58
money was gone, every nickel of it. Did anyone else see these two
12:01
old ladies around? Yeah? Yeah, the gate man will let him in.
12:05
He said he was coming to see their nephew, Walter basketm a clerk
12:09
in the office here, So he let him go by without waiting for an
12:11
okay, But Bascomb never saw him. He says, he ain't even got
12:16
an inn and he didn't leave his desk all afternoon. But they seen after
12:18
the robbery. Oh, they was out of the gate before the alarm was
12:22
give out. The gate man saw him go and he described him. Well,
12:26
they looked like a couple of sweet little old ladies, maybe like your
12:30
pet grandmar One was short and chubby, the other was about middle size,
12:33
kind kind of slender, like the same, Nick, They're very same.
12:37
You're sure of that. World. Couldn't be no mischief, Nique. Look,
12:41
you didn't find any clues as to who slugged you. No suspects at
12:45
all, Nah, not a one. But it must have been somebody works
12:48
in here. Couldn't that happened like it did? No other way? Okay?
12:50
Thanks? Well, so long? Well, Nick, looks as if
12:56
this is as far as we go, No many. There's just one more
13:00
chance. I have the photograph I made of the piece of burned letter we
13:03
found at the old Ladies place. Eh, the writer was the thief.
13:07
It seems very probable if he does work here, as that messenger seemed to
13:09
think, they might compare the writing on the letter with samples of the writing
13:13
of the employees and the plant. Oh but Nick, that would take carever.
13:16
There are several thousand employees here. Then two dames a die of old
13:20
age, before we got that job done. Like, is not nicks wal.
13:24
I just happened to remember when them two old dames just hand me up,
13:26
they kept talking about somebody named Bill. You sure that sure? I'm
13:31
sure they said this Bill was going to be pretty sol at him for getting
13:35
found out. To Nikkas likes to search the thief a whole lot easier.
13:37
For sure, we just look at the handwriting of every guy in the plant
13:41
named William. There may be a lot of them, but it'll be a
13:43
whole lot easier than checking up on everybody who works it. Oh well,
13:46
I would look at it if you remember that name just in time. Come
13:48
on, the personnel manager ought to be able to take up a specimen of
13:52
this Bill's handwriting for us, as much as I got to say it isn't
14:03
this William Hender? You mean to say that out of three hundred and forty
14:07
seven guys named William who signed these employment cards the personnel manager gave us,
14:11
there ain't one that lights like the sample in the photograph to the trains.
14:16
I there's not one of them that's the same. Oh nke. That means
14:20
the whole theory that an employees stole the money as out the windows. Yeah,
14:24
that leaves us exactly nowhere. Maybe the guy's name aid William Attar,
14:30
who could stand for some of them, of course, for that's the answer,
14:33
it must be. His name was ver. Come on, let's get
14:37
busy. We only have a few hundred more names to look through. Yes,
14:48
this is it all right? Who is Wilfred Bergen? Work in the
14:52
stockroom? A brown wears the stock room. If I could talk to this
14:56
Bergen, it's in the next building back of this one. You'll probably find
15:01
him in his desk. It's just to the right of the door. Would
15:03
you like to have me call him and tell him you want to see him?
15:05
Oh? Thanks, We don't want to want them. We're coming.
15:07
We don't want them to get away before we have a talk with him.
15:18
Oh that job sure was a neat setup. This Bergen watches the messenger,
15:24
sees how he goes through this little corridor every time he comes back to the
15:28
payroll. Tell us the old dames that what they do, and it all
15:33
works out just as slick as grief. I asked the old lady stopped him
15:35
the right place, and Bergen sucked him and they shielded him while they cut
15:39
open the money bag, and they calm and went home, taking the money
15:41
with him, probably one of those shopping bags women carrying. And Bergen went
15:45
back to work and that was them. Yeah, they're waiting until the man
15:48
he cools off so they can spend it. I wonder where they hit it.
15:52
Well, they're waiting. I hope Bergen will answer that was there.
15:56
Oh you're well for breg him. That's right, Bergan. This is Nick
16:02
Carter. He wants to ask a few questions. Questions about one Bergen.
16:07
What if you hide the money you got from the payroll robbery six months ago?
16:11
I don't know what you're talking about it. I think you drew,
16:15
you w your nts, knocked out the messenger and stole the payrolling mount into
16:18
one hundred and fifty three thousand dollars. Now what did you do with it?
16:19
You're crazy? I had nothing to do with that. I can't clean
16:22
Bergen. We got your dead to rights. You think you can make me
16:23
confess something I didn't do? Your nuts? Bergen? Is this your employment
16:27
card? Yes? It is? What about it? This photographs show part
16:30
of a letter you wrote to your aunts recently. Let me see it's hey,
16:33
come back here, stop for our sup down the space. Maybe it
16:37
isn't hard fan, you won't died Bergen. You only got shot no lego,
16:47
my neck, my nick. They can't move. Let me see shot
16:56
him in the lego, right, Maddie, been falling downstairs here. I'm
17:03
afraid you haven't long to live before you go. Tell me where's the money?
17:10
Isn't this something we can do for Bergen? Where did you hide the
17:15
money? Buried where you'll never find? You might as well tell us where
17:22
you're buried at Bergen? We can get your ams to tell. I'll never
17:26
tell you. I get it alone. Find it if you can I store
17:37
Yah, huh, I can't have it? No? Is he going neck?
17:48
Yes, Maddy, he's dead, and the secret of where he hid
17:52
the money died with him. Well, look, I ain't given up yet.
17:56
If he buried it like he said, it's probably buried somewhere or around
18:00
that house where his aunts live. Now, I'm gonna have a gang start
18:03
digging there bright and early tomorrow morning. Good lucky you're meddy. I'll drop
18:07
in on you later to see how you make out. Hello, sergeant,
18:18
Hi am Maddy? How you making out? If I couldn't see you for
18:22
myself. I ain't making out making We've been over this whole dog gone lot
18:27
and not a sign of the money. Apply Berg must have buried it outside
18:32
the limits of the property. Well, if he did, it can stay
18:33
there for all of me. Do you realize, Nick, that this is
18:37
the last street in this section. From here at it's open country and the
18:41
darn stuff could be buried anywhere for the next five miles. Waddy, if
18:45
I can tell you right where to dig for the money, we'll get rid
18:48
once more. Neck Carter, you've been holding out of me again, so
18:52
help you know I haven't been holding out on you. Answer my question.
18:56
Yeah, I'll try it once more, but look, if it don't work,
18:59
keep away from me next time I see you. Okay, Maddie,
19:02
meet me here in the morning about ten o'clock. I may have something for
19:04
you, So on tell I'm sergeant. Uh really have an idea? I
19:11
do? I maybe I can come back here tonight and look at the exact
19:12
spot. Form will tell me, Nick, what's your plan. I'm going
19:15
to get hold of an army officer I know and have him help me help
19:18
you. What locate the money? Is that all you're going to tell me?
19:22
That's all for now. I like to surprise you, Betsy. Oh,
19:26
someday you'll help me something and I'll surprise you. I'll probably drop dead
19:30
at your feet. Sorry, this is such a blind search, Lieutenant,
19:41
But as I said, we have no idea where the money was buried.
19:45
That's all right, mister Carter. I'm used to working like this. Not
19:48
too dark for you, is it? Oh? No, indeed I worked
19:51
this gadget on darker nights than this, and god results. I suppose we
19:53
swing over this way for a change. We pretty well covered the ground on
19:56
that side. Okay, mister Carter, whatever you say over here. Maybe,
20:02
yes, we don't find anything in this trip. I'm afraid we'll wait
20:06
a minute. Not something I think so, Yes, yes, this is
20:11
it. I'm sure, no question about it, not at all. I'm
20:14
certain that if you dig here you'll find the money. Well, if the
20:17
money is there, Mary, you'll find it. But we don't want your
20:21
marry to find it, for we want to find it always there. Of
20:25
course we do. The money belongs to us now, of course, an
20:30
the two old ladies have tied Waldo up and left him in the house the
20:34
other night. What brings you back? Here now the money, of course,
20:38
I mean, how did you know we were out here? We didn't.
20:41
But we read in the late evening paper last night that the killing of
20:45
our nephew Bill had downed the table robbery, and that's the case was blown.
20:49
And so we sai it would be stays to come back here and get
20:53
our money. And we did. We found you here. We've been watching
21:00
you for a long time from behind the trees. Oh yes, And now
21:03
that you're here, how do you propose to go about digging it up?
21:07
Oh? Sure, we can persuade you to do that for us, Misterta,
21:11
Oh really, what makes you think? So? I got a gun,
21:17
mister Cardor. We have two guns, one for each other's, and
21:21
we both know how to shoot that straight. I didn't departed. Father taught
21:26
us when we would get Look, ladies, you gotta let me have those
21:27
guns. Somebody might get hurt. Nobody's going to get here, mister Carta,
21:32
if you've got look here, A joke's a joke. This is getting
21:36
to cut Put your hands up over yet you too, So do you put
21:41
your hands up to What do we doing, mister Carter? We don't do
21:44
anything. We just hey, went right past my ear? Are you putting
21:48
your hands above your head? Now? I'll see here. This is all
21:52
very I guess we better do it. I'd rather be silly than that's very
21:56
Why have you okay? Okay, my hands are up. You see if
22:02
either of them carrying a pistol, sister are reading a book that that's always
22:07
the first thing to do in such cases. You please. The soldier doesn't
22:12
have one. Oh oh, look, mister Carter has two pos. You
22:22
put them over by that don't many where they'll be safe. Now? Will
22:26
you start digging, mister Carter, I can't. I haven't to show you.
22:30
I'll get you one. I remember seeing one in the cellar of our
22:33
house. It isn't a very good one, but you can use it.
22:37
You wait right there. He'll wait for you, sister, won't you,
22:42
mister Carter? It looks that way. But now look here, it's no
22:48
good. The police will be here before I can possibly get the hole deep
22:51
enough to find the money. It's three o'clock already. Then. I'm afraid
22:53
that will mean you'll have to hurry, mister Carter. We must have the
22:57
money before the police come back, so you'd better take your coat off and
23:03
get ready to dig real first look, sister. The soldier had gone to
23:18
sleep for years, poor dear. He must be all worn out watching mister
23:22
Carter work. So what time is it? Seven pointy? Oh dear?
23:27
I do hope we can find the money before the police arrived, and mister
23:32
Carter, yes, police dig a little faster, it's getting late. That's
23:52
all right. Well, at least I have the satisfaction of knowing we've found
23:57
the right place, like a ten. How do you want to be here?
24:02
Back? Now? Are you too still up there? Yes, we
24:07
are so, don't stop eat. We must get that box before the police
24:11
survive. I don't have to dig anymore. I found it. You found
24:15
it just a week mister Cotton is so the money for us? Nice?
24:23
He's founded. Oh what a lovely man here soldier soldier. Yes, will

24:36
Yes, yes, I found it. Oh, here it is,
24:37
and you'll reach it. That's a little higher. That's it. I've got
24:42

24:49

24:55

25:14
hers can speak? Okay, watch out? How do you do? Thank
25:19
you both very much? Is thank you so much? I hope you need
25:26
to gain some time. Goodbye, good time. I hope the story never
25:30
gets around. Nick Carter and a lieutenant and the US engineers made prisoner by
25:36
two little old ladies and two little old guns. You can't forget those.
25:40
Welcome on, Let's get out of here. Give me boost, you can
25:41

25:53
so glad we've found this money before those How did policeman got here? Oh?
25:57
Yes, Go in the house and wrap it up so no one will
26:02
know what it is. Then we can go back to our old home and
26:06
live comfortably for the rest of our day. Yes years. Watch out for
26:11
that first, that'll be far enough. Stand right where you are? Wait,
26:15
but where did you come from? Watch out for the dangerous I know
26:19
what do you want with us? I want you and I want that box
26:25
of money. You got that, and don't try reaching for your guns.
26:29
It won't be healthy for you. Oh look Nick in that army man.
26:32
Oh dear, they must have gotten out of the hole you mean, Nick,
26:37
And the other guy was in the hole where that box was. Yes,
26:41
we hoped they wouldn't get out till after we'd gone that knife. Mister
26:45
Cutt dug the money up for us all by himself. Nick dug it up.
26:49
Oh I never Hey, Mary, you got the money, the money
26:52
and the dames both, and they won't get away from me. I can
26:56
tell you. I gotta say one thing for us. Ever, let a
27:00
couple of old dames get him, and old he knew how to handle women.
27:03
He did what happened to all your science, Nick, The science was
27:07
on their side, this time in the form of a couple of guns,
27:11
and they could shoot them too. Believe you both stopped adding Nikki did the
27:15
best he could, didn't you, Nick, Yes, Patsy, I did
27:18
the best I could. I stalled around with the digging until time for mattered
27:21
to show up. Of course, said they hadn't been two old ladies.
27:23
I got a sure, sure, we know they hadn't been so weak.
27:27
You can overpower them both single. Nikki, tell me how did you ever
27:33
find where that money was buried? Patsy said, you were using some kind
27:36
of a trick device, just the mind detector worl those same as they using
27:38
the word to find hidden mind detector can find hidden metal even when it's buried
27:41
as deep as his box was. How deep was it? Eight feet?
27:45
And if you don't believe me, look at these blissoms, nick Look see
27:49
that chap standing there watching nurse certainly say what about it? Red hair,
27:53
tall, thin must live in this neighborhood, or he wouldn't be standing there
27:57
kippeting, isn't is that the witness world has started out to find You're right,
28:03
Betsy, and this matter has the thieves and the money, and we
28:04
have our witness. We can consider the case clothes except for these bluster them.
28:11
Nick Boy, your own father used to say, never be ashamed of
28:15
honest toilets, remember technic, never be ashamed of honest toils, even if
28:19
you do happen to be doing it at the point of a gun. Well
28:30
neck, how about a few highlights on next week's show, just to what
28:33
our appetite, good idea, I can my story next week is about a
28:37
man who was killed by a rifle shot, but the bullet came from the
28:38
wrong gun and the ladder was too long. The which was what The ladder
28:42
was too long? So what that's the story? Together with the fact that
28:45
the boys club met very late that night, that's enough. That's enough.
28:48

28:52

29:53
This is ken Paul saying so long until next week. This is a mutual
30:06
broadcasting system. Welcome back. Well, this probably wasn't a highlight of Nick
30:18
Carter's career, but to be fair to the greatest of all manhunters, here
30:23
he did what he had to do. He made sure that he got down
30:29
there in time to make sure that they're itchy trigger figures did not end up
30:37
shooting him, But at the same time, he didn't really give them time
30:41
to get away. You know, it may seem silly to have the great
30:47
detective held captain by two little old ladies, but guns are an equalizer,
30:52
and so Nick did the right thing, all right. Well, on to
30:55
some listener comments and feedback. Michael says, I'm enjoying the fine collection of
31:02
shows that you are presenting. I listened mostly during my six thirty am five
31:07
mile runs and a workouts. The miles fly by, even if I don't
31:12
well, I definitely hear you on that part. I actually finished last in
31:18
a ten k and am training for our half walking rather than running for the
31:25
most part, important thing is to finish, and that's definitely what you go
31:30
for. But thanks so much for listening. Glad we can keep you entertained
31:34
out there, and Ben says, thank you for your program. I love
31:37
your work. Thanks so much, Ben. And finally we had a couple
31:41
of comments on the War. Craig says, I can't believe the series has
31:47
come to an end. It broke my heart when I heard you say that
31:49
the series was a real joy to listen to. And I just want to
31:52
pass along a big thank you to Adam for all the time and work you
31:56
put into this project. It's appreciated more than you ever know. And he
32:00
also was thankful for the resource that I put in with links to other programs
32:07
that we could not get to full links to cavalcad of America, Wordgin War
32:10
and other programs like that. He says, what an incredible resource. Thank
32:15

32:16
but thank you so much. Between the great detectives and all the episodes
32:21

32:24
while. Here the best, bro, And a big thank you to your
32:27

32:54
of the best Nick Carter cases ever. But that really is it. From
32:59
