Truly Johnny Doller. As we continue with the Alvin Summers Matter, Part three
1:18
and Part four from Hollywood, It's time now for Bob Bailey as Johnny Doller
1:26
Littenings of the Santa Thomas Police Department. Oh yeah, Lieutenant, I have
1:30
been trying to reach you for some time. Sorry. I was out making
1:33
some funeral arrangements about the dead man that they wished to speak to you,
1:37
Senior. Why are away, Lieutenant? What's on your mind? Especially the
1:41
question I was about to ask you, what do you mean? Surely I
1:44
don't need to remind you that Minetois Canta was found dead in your hotel room
1:49
earlier this evening. You certainly don't, but I've already told one of your
1:52
cops the whole story. Perhaps not. I suggest that you come to see
1:57
me so that we can discuss it further. Is that an advantation or an
2:00
order? Let us school it an invitation. But if you do not,
2:05
except, we will have to come and get you tonight and every weekday night.
2:16
Bob Bailey and the Transcribed Adventures of the Man with the Action Packed Expense
2:21
account America's fabulous freelance insurance investigator was truly Johnny Dollar. Santo Thomas, Mexico.
2:37
Expense accounts submitted by Special Investigator Johnny Dollar to the home office Northeastern Fidelity
2:42
in Bonding, Hartford, Connecticut. The following is an account of additional expenses
2:46
during my investigation of the Alvin Summer seventy five thousand dollars in puzzlement case.
2:53
Item six twenty five dollars American funeral and burial expenses for Benito the Bellboy.
2:58
Somebody had to do it and apparently had no family. After I made the
3:02
arrangements with the town's undertaker, I went back to my room and received Lieutenant
3:06
comezs polite but firm invitation to drop in on him. So I went on
3:09
down to police headquarters. Sit down, say your lola, thanks Autenant.
3:20
So, so the autopsy has confirmed the fact that Benitos Constant died from knife
3:24
wounds. I didn't need an autopsy to tell me that. I was obvious.
3:29
But what is not obvious is your paulty in all of this. Look,
3:31
the story hasn't changed a bit since I told it to your Sergeant Romero.
3:36
I went back to my room at midnight. I opened my balcony door
3:38
and enroll benito throw had been cut. That is the story as to what
3:44
is behind this story, Let me will be another marker for instance. For
3:47
instance, in a case of this, everyone is a potential suspect, everyone
3:54
including you isn't as being pretty ridiculous, commes is it? Then perhaps you
4:00
would be kind enough to tell me if there were some legitimitrition we need to
4:03
have this throat got in your hotel room. Well in the first place.
4:08
If you're interested in alibis, I've got one. Indeed, I was with
4:12
a girl named Gloria Harris up at the Hotel Plia del Mar all evening.
4:15
You can check that. Oh, you may be quite certain that I am
4:17
checking an olio activities this evening. In the second place, if you're interested
4:21
in motives, I don't have one. No, why would I want to
4:25
kill but you don't. When I was hoping to get some information from him,
4:28
information of what sourcing your dollar, I guess i'd better start at the
4:31
top. Lieutenant, here's my card. You're an instudance investigator. That's right.
4:39
About six months ago, a man named Alvin Summers up in the States
4:42
and basil seventy five thousand dollars from the company he worked for. The up
4:46
and I'm representing, and the deal wrote the bond on him, so they
4:47
were stuck for the money seventy five thousand dollars. A couple of days ago,
4:51
they got a long distance phone call from down here in Santo Tomas.
4:55
The man who call claimed that he had information about Alvin Summers. That's why
4:59
I came down here. Who's the man telephone? We don't know. I
5:02
came on the chance that he might contact me here, or that I might
5:05
get some kind of lead on Alvin Summer's whereabouts of you. No on both
5:10
counts. Banindo said he knew about a place where Summers used to live.
5:14
He was going to take me there tonight, but apparently somebody had other ideas
5:17
and a knife to back them up. See nobody has tried to contact you.
5:23
Oh sure, sure, several people have, but always for the wrong
5:27
reason. First, there was a man named Carson, a zipper salesman.
5:30
He contacted me for the purpose of setting up a cribbage game. Cribba the
5:35
scribbage. Now that's something I hope I never find out. And there was
5:39
a strong arm who bounced me around with a gun barrel and suggested politely that
5:43
I wanted to leave town. Oh what did he look like? He was
5:46
heavy in the shoulders, thick neck, low foreward, short dark hair,
5:50
scar over the bridge of his nose. Scar that would be senior grows.
5:56
You know him, I know him by side? Who is he? What's
5:59
his pitch? That is something I do not know, Senor. You must
6:02
understand that Santa Thomas is a rather strange town. And the dangerous one come
6:09
in he look, can't you see that? Them? Busy Susan Romado bodies
6:14
your bouts and your dollar? Oh well, what is it? Well,
6:17
I have talked to us Senior Rita Gloria Harris at the Hotel Player del Mar.
6:21
She said that Senior Dalla was with her throughout the evening. Very well,
6:27
Romato. One thing more, we have just arrested a man, American
6:30
tourista, senior cars. I will talk to him. Gonna have time minute.
6:35
That's the Zipper sales when I was telling you about Indeed, yeah,
6:39
hey, look, maybe he ties into this deal after all? What's the
6:42
charge? Romato is disturbing the peace? Oh great, just when I thought
6:47
I had a lead. What's the matter, I got a few too many
6:50
andrews. Well maybe, well, Romo, here here's the report the senior
6:56
cars in this outside. So that will be all. I will talk to
7:00
the man. See if you know this man, perhaps you had better come
7:05
with okay, dollar say, I'm sure glad to see you. Carson.
7:15
What seems to be the trouble, Well, it wasn't as much as they
7:19
made a dollar. Fella goes out stepping sometimes, well well you know he
7:26
steps a little too fun. Well, I was only having a little fun
7:29
and your cousin. This report states that you are at the Hotel Player them
7:31
this evening that's right. But now at other states that you became increasingly noisy,
7:36
and that at one point, during a dance by an entertainment, you
7:41
grabbed this set up from one of the musicians and attempted to join in the
7:45
dance. Now, Lieutenant, maybe I was a little lot of line.
7:47
But further that, when the dance had refused to dance with you, you
7:50
chased her around the patio several times, trying to sell her a zipper.
7:55
Maybe, oh, no, dollar went up on a guy will have that.
7:59
Finally, when the musician attempted to get his set up away from you,
8:03
you broke his guitar over his head. Say when you get going,
8:05
you're a real tiger, aren't you? These things true? Senior Corsom,
8:09
Well, I suppose the facts are correct, but they sound different somehow.
8:15
Down here, I was just trying to have a little fun, you know,
8:18
Serge and Dromo will conduct you to the magistrate. Tomato a dollar.
8:24
You're just gonna stand her and not do anything. After all, we both
8:28
live at the same hotel, and and to your help, I'll have it
8:37
to Lieutenant. You will have to pay the damages and there will be a
8:41
fine. What's your provact go on his expense account. Lieutenant, you started
8:43
to tell me about this beetle brow crows show what a few dance in me.
8:48
I started to say that before the people from Mexico City building new opail,
8:52
this down unfortunately used to be something of a haven for undesirable characters from
8:58
the United States fugitives. Some of them still remain, and although I know
9:03
very little about Senior Cross, it is probably that he is one of them.
9:07
Could be you said that he and Senior Personal the only ones who have
9:11
made any effort to contact you, except for Gloria Harris. Of course,
9:16
I still haven't found out what's on her mind. I mean, what else
9:20
is on a mind? She says she's down here on a vacation. Indeed,
9:24
in that case, it has certainly been a long vacation. What do
9:28
you mean she's been here for several months to my knowledge? Wow? Wow,
9:33
now that's very interesting. Lieutenant. Thanks, anything else you want to
9:37
ask me about, but I don't not the moment, But I suggest you
9:41
remain available. You know what I find me one moment, Senior dollar rewarding.
9:50
As I told you, this tone can be a dangerous place. I
9:52
would suggest that you'll be quite careful. Yeah, And one thing I wish
9:58
to impress upon you. If you are at any time tempted during your investigation
10:03
to take the law into your own hands, I assure you that you would
10:07
have erected well in that case. I hope you're around when and if I
10:09
need you, Whether or not I am available in the warning still applies.
10:15
Okay, be seeing you, Johnny. Wow, Gloria, I thought you
10:22
were tucked in for the night. I couldn't sleep, so I called your
10:24
hotel. He told me that the bellboy had been murdered, that you were
10:28
at the police station. So I came down here. Is there anything I
10:33
can do? Not for Benito? I'm a friend. He was killed in
10:37
your room. Yeah, you think he could have been killed by mistake?
10:41
Mistake? You mean maybe I was supposed to be the target. Hey,
10:46
it's a thought, Johnny. You're in trouble of some kind. We should
10:50
tell me what it is. You're not just done here on a vacation.
10:52
Speaking of vacations, Gloria, let's Johnny, what is it? Keep looking
10:58
straight ahead as somebody us the street in the shadows. He's telling us,
11:03
can you see who it is? And he goes past that, lad,
11:05
I'll be what do you know my old friend Kross again? I mean the
11:09
man who came to your room and was looking for you on the beach.
11:11
That's the boy. Funny how he always seems to pop up when I'm with
11:15
you, Johnny, I tell you, I don't know it matter right now?
11:16
Come on turn into the alley here. Okay, I'll keep going straight
11:24
down this alley and out the other end. Go back to your hotel and
11:26
I'll call you there later. I maybe a while. What are you going
11:28
to do? Wait for him? No, John, Gloria, don't give
11:31
me any argument this time. Get going. After she was out of side,
11:37
I ducked into a doorway. Then I waited. Yeah, Krouse was
11:43
following, all right. I waited until he got right up to me,
11:48
and I know about him. That's right. Me propped the gun. Yeah,
11:56
this time, I'm ready for your sweetheart. How do you think about
12:01
me? Cross? I don't like guys working over me with a gun barrel?
12:03
Ever? All right, now, you're gonna tell me what this is
12:11
all about. Why you've been tailing me? Why are you working me over
12:13
with a gun barrel in my room last night? I want to hear all
12:16
about it. You know I talk, I said, talk, not taking
12:22
me back, taking your back? You know you came down here, but
12:26
I ain't good by What are you talking about? No? What happens to
12:31
a three times? Three times? Let me back? Let me get it?
12:35
Carry me? Wait a minute? You ever hear by? Man name
12:39
Alvin Somermers? How about Gloria Harris? Are you sure about that? Cross?
12:45
Look done? Look I'm telling you the truth. Yeah, I guess
12:50
you are. You're a two punchy right now to give me a routine?
12:54
Yeah, I think I get it. You'll want it in the States.
12:56
You figured I was a cop and came down here to make a pinch.
13:00
Brother, right now, I sure wish I was. I mean, no,
13:03
I'm no copper. Say he made a mistake, he's sure did busting?
13:11
Oh no, no, not at all. I just love the feel
13:13
of a gun barrel whipping across my face. Crouse, I got a nice
13:18
little piece of advice for you. Next time, you better find out what
13:20
the score is before you jump into the ball. I left him there in
13:28
the alley and went back to my hotel. Then, just as I was
13:31
about to open the door to my room, I heard someone moving around inside.
13:35
I went quietly down at the end of the hall, out the window
13:37
and easing along the balcony back towards my room. Inside it was dark,
13:41
but I could make out someone bent over my luggage, searching it. Heads
13:46
to cross the room slowly. Then I landed, Hello, Gloria, Johnny.
13:54
Yeah, Johnny, helping me unpack. Maybe. Look, I can
13:58
explain, Johnny now something that's just exactly what you're gonna do. Johnny Dollar,
14:20
I remember me, Sweethearts. I didn't. I'm the guy who are
14:22
making a big pitch for dancing moonlight on the beach, the complete routine.
14:26
Oh, I gotta hand it to you, baby, that was real nice
14:28
act. No, it wasn't acting, Johnny. I meant it all of
14:31
us. Oh sure, Gloria. Sure, that's why I catch you here
14:33
and searching my room. That's all part of the big romance. You can
14:37
explain, and that's just what you're gonna do. Hey, look, Gloria,
14:39
one guy has already wound up dead on this deal. I've got a
14:43
strong hunch I'm number two men on the list, and this baby I do
14:46
not want. Santo Tomas, Mexico expense accounts submitted by Special Investigator Johnny Dollar
15:00
to the home office Northeastern Fidelity and Bonding, Hartford, Connecticut. The following
15:03
is an account of additional expenses during my investigation of the Alvin Summer's embezzlement of
15:07
seventy five thousand dollars Item nine seventeen dollars and sixty cents business entertainment for one
15:16
Gloria Harris. Believe it or not, I wasn't going to put that item
15:18
on the account because I figured it might just possibly be a private romance.
15:22
But when I caught Gloria searching my hotel room, I knew she tied into
15:26
the deal somehow, that she could give me information on Summer's whereabouts. Johnny,
15:30
Please, No, you're not leaving, Gloria, not yet. I'm
15:33
not trying to get away. Oh it's the use. You'd never believe me.
15:37
Why should you lie to me? I lied to you once, only
15:41
once, when I told you I'm here on a vacation. I'm not surprised.
15:46
The truth is I'm stranded down here, stranded. Oh sure, that's
15:50
why you're staying at the Plia del Mar, the most expensive hotel in town.
15:52
I don't mean no money I mean no passport. It's true. You
16:00
got a cigarette, Johnny. Yeah, he thanks. Yeah. I've been
16:11
stuck in this ratty town for four months now, just hoping every day that
16:15
I could figure out some way or find somebody to help me get back to
16:19
the state. How came you pick this town, assuming I believe you,
16:23
because I heard that fugitives from the States sometimes came here. I've been drifting
16:27
around for a year, from place to place. I guess I thought my
16:32
luck could change here. It hasn't, an't you, Louis your passport in
16:36
the first place. I'll tell you if you really want to know Johnny personally,
16:41
I'd rather skip it. It's a long story, not a very pretty
16:45
one. It's all in the past. Let's just say I've made a mistake
16:51
about a guy. Okay, glory, okay, But there's one little item.
16:55
You haven't told me. Why you were searching my room just now,
16:57
Because I was trying to find out something about your Johnny, the reason why
17:02
you're down here. Why so maybe I could make a deal with you.
17:04
Deal. You helped me get a passport, and I'll help you. How
17:11
can you help me? You're looking for Alvin Summers aren't you. Oh am,
17:15
I six months ago him bazzled seventy five thousand dollars up in the States
17:21
and took off. Go on, you came down here to find him.
17:25
You're an insurance investigator. Keep talking, that's all. That's it now.
17:30
Maybe you wouldn't mind telling me how you know all of Oh sure, that
17:34
report in my suitcase and the picture Alvin Summers. I know him. I
17:40
can help you, Johnny. Where is he? First? I've got to
17:42
know if you'll help me passport the passport? What do you expect me to
17:45
do about that? In your business, Johnny, you must meet a lot
17:48
of people, all kinds. Maybe one of them has an extra passport or
17:52
two for a price. Maybe all right, don't see what I can do.
17:57
That's the best you can say. That's the best. Take it or
18:00
leave it? All right. I'll take it. I haven't any choice no
18:04
about Alvin Summers. I'll take you there to Summer's place. Where is it?
18:10
Down the beach about a mile below town, Then into the jungle a
18:12
little way. How come you know where it is? I met Alvin Summer's
18:17
a couple of months ago here in Santa Thomas. Yeah, I went there
18:19
once for dinner. Okay, you take me there, Gloria christ I'd better
18:25
go up to the hotel and change. The country is pretty rough, unclosed.
18:27
Okay, I'll meet at your hotel and half an hour, Ny,
18:32
I only lied to you about one thing, the reason I was down here.
18:37
The rest of it I meant last night on the terrace and on the
18:42
beach. I meant all of it, really, Johnny, And I mean
18:49
this. You know, I'm kind of glad you told me that. Seeing
18:57
half an hour. I stayed there a while after she left, going over
19:07
the case of my mind. Maybe she was telling me the truth, But
19:11
whether she was or not, I had to follow up any lead I could
19:12
find, because I was getting nowhere the way things were. Half an hour
19:17
later, as I was starting out of my room to go pick her up,
19:18
my phone rang. It was a long distance call from the States,
19:22
Fred Wilkins, an audition fidelity. Johnny, Hi, Fred, Well how's
19:26
it fishing down there? Fishing? A matter of fact, it hasn't been
19:30
so good so far? Fred, that's too bad, but I'll bet the
19:33
swimming is all right. Now? Whoa there? What's eating you? I
19:37
didn't to send you down there for a vacation. Well, you've got a
19:40
great sense of humor. You should see this place vacation and been there.
19:44
What do you think I've been doing. I've been looking for whoever it was
19:47
the telephone. You didn't said he had information on Alvin Summers. Couldn't have
19:49
been looking very hard. He called me again this morning. He that's right.
19:53
He wondered if i'd send anyone down there yet. Hey, look,
19:56
Fred, this guy is not easy to find, believe me, and I
20:00
think I know why. Obviously somebody doesn't want him to talk. And that
20:03
somebody could be Alvin Summers about one jump behind him. You think he's around
20:07
there could be. I'm leaving right now to find out. I've got to
20:10
lead on where he lives. There's somebody at the door. I'll call you
20:12
want to get anything fishing? Oh, Lieutenant Gomez, Well look, I'm
20:21
in sort of a hurry right now. This will not take low. Okay,
20:26
what is it, Lieutenant Early this morning one of my main fants in
20:29
your cross in the alley. How is he feeling? He had been badly
20:33
beaten? It would not tell us anything, but it was fairly obvious who
20:37
had on this to him. So so the last time we talked in your
20:41
Dollar, I warned you not to attempt to take the low into your own
20:45
I listen, Gomez. If you think I want to take a pistol webping
20:47
like he gave me and not do anything about it, misunderstand I care nothing
20:51
about Gross personally or what happens to him. I'm thinking about something more important.
20:56
For instance, you're looking Alvin Somers, a man who quite obviously does
21:02
not want to be found, so so when you find him, it is
21:06
quite possible that there will be trouble. Granted, but let's face a few
21:08
facts. Lieutenant, you and your boys can't help me. You're in charge
21:11
of the Santa Tomas Police Force, all two men, and I imagine you've
21:15
got a few other things on your mind besides an ambassador from the States and
21:18
an insurance investigating. That means I've got to do it on my own.
21:26
Very well, Seniors, Dollar, This morning I attended the funeral of Benite's
21:30
cancer, who was killed because he had information about Alvin Somers. If you
21:36
find Somers and take the low into your own hands again, I fear I
21:38
may have to attend another funeral yours. That's what I liked about come as
21:47
he was the cheerful type. Well, I picked up Gloria her hotel and
21:52
we had it for summer's place. We walked down the beach about a mile
21:56
below town. The beach kept narrowing as the jungle crowded closer closer to the
22:00
water. This place is in from the beach aways. There's a little path
22:07
pretty soon it leads in. You could walk right by it and never see
22:08
it. Here it is, and that's just what we'll do, or walk
22:14
right by it. I don't want to lead anyone else here. There's nobody
22:18
else on the beach. I'm not talking about the beach. That's a regular
22:21
jungle in there. Twenty people could be watching us, so we'd never see
22:22
them. Oh, I guess so, okay, well the wind here.
22:27
Then work our way back to the path. Brother, this is pretty thick
22:34
in here. Yeah, you're walking through thick brush like this, you always
22:41
feel like somebody's watching you. Imagination gets pretty strong. Sometimes I think it's
22:48
a little more than imagination. What do you mean, Stop a minute,
22:52
listen, I don't hear any Yeah, somebody's teeling us again. Look,
23:00
keep moving straight ahead. I'm going to circle and see if I'm going to
23:03
decept him, all right, but be careful. Gloria moved on, and
23:07
I started circling to the right. Every few seconds, I'd stop and listen.
23:12
Yeah, he was still there. I pegged the direction of the sound
23:15
and started edging toward it slowly. Then my foot caught on a bike.
23:21
I scrambled at my feet and kept going in the same direction. There was
23:23
a small clearing ahead. I reached it, stopped and listened nothing. Whoever
23:29
I was chasing seemed to know the country better than I did. He disappeared.
23:36
I caught up with Gloria a couple of hundred yards farther along the trail.
23:40
Any luck, Johnny, No, whoever it is is pretty good at
23:42
keeping on a site. Are you sure it was a person? It might
23:45
have been some kind of animal. That might be. You can see a
23:48
corner of Alvin Summer's hot from here, past that big tree. Yeah,
23:52
come on and stay behind me, all right, there was any trouble,
23:55
I think there will be. Look, a guy who was this careful about
23:57
hiding doesn't usually welcome visitors. Right now, no sign of life. Keep
24:07
back against the wall. I'm gonna open the door. M okay, Gloria.
24:18
Nobody home. Nobody home. Well, he seems to have a pretty
24:23
comfortable place here. You like to live in jungles? Hmm, Yeah,
24:33
what looks like he hasn't been around for several days. The food in these
24:37
cupboards pretty moldy. Yeah, I guess they've cleared out. They he and
24:42
whoever was here with him? What makes you think someone was but one thing?
24:47
Two sets of dirty dishes over there? Maybe he just wasn't neat.
24:49
He'd have to have been awfully neat to use two toothbrushes and two kinds of
24:53
toothpaste, and two people have been eating at this table. See the crumbs.
24:57
Maybe there's something around here that could give you a clue to where he
25:00
might be now. Maybe if he's still alive, What do you mean you
25:06
think he isn't? Oh, I don't know. But if somebody else was
25:07
living here too, it could mean he had a partner in this deal.
25:11
And it's a funny thing about that kind of playmates. Sooner or later they
25:14
started quarreling about who's going to hold the marbles seventy five thousand dollars worth in
25:18
this case, Johnny. If he is dead, that leaves you nowhere maybe
25:23
not what it sounds like. I shad it was somewhere outside. Keep talking,
25:32
Glory a normal tone. I'm going out the back way and see if
25:33
I can spot him. Why don't you look around the hot Johnny. Gloria
25:38
kept up a line of pattern. When I slipped out the back door and
25:41
into the brush, I listened, do you want me to do anything?
25:44
Nothing but the sound of Gloria's voice. He had to be somewhere near but
25:48
where. I worked my way around at the front of the cabin, still
25:52
under cover, no sign. I kept on around the other side. Then
25:56
as I started to climb over a fallen tree trunk, I saw a chet
26:00
out of the corner of my eye. Hold it, don't turn around.
26:03
The voice was behind me. I could see the rest of the shadow now
26:06
a hand with a gun, and I knew it was zeroed in on my
26:08
backbone. I said, I'm holding drop your gun. Kick it backwards quick.
26:19
Hey, look whoever you are, turn around, okay, and don't
26:23
try to move why. I'm telling me your eyes straight ahead. Any move,
26:29
any move at all, it'll be your last. There'll be the final
26:48
exciting episode in our story of the Alvin Summers Matter tomorrow, Yes, tomorrow,
26:52
how to find out what you've been looking for the hard way? Join
26:56
us, won't you? Yours Truly? Johnny Dollar, Yours Truly Johnny Doller
27:17
starring Bob Bailey, is transcribed in Hollywood, written by Robert Rife. It
27:21
is produced and directed by Jack Johnstone. Be sure to join us tomorrow night,
27:26
same time and station for the next exciting episode of Yours Truly. Johnny
27:30
Duller Roy Rowan speaking welcome back well in a couple of interesting points. First
28:36
of all, I like that Johnny established, or that the writers established,
28:41
that each part in the episode doesn't have to begin with Johnny answering the telephone
28:48
as long as somebody's saying the name of Johnny Dowler. And I remember enough
28:52
about this serial that that'll continue when we get to part five. We definitely
28:57
we're leaving you in some suspense for a couple of days. I'm certainly looking
29:03
forward to hearing the solution to this. You know, incredibly well paced,
29:07
well set up, really a great story so far. The only thing I
29:12
will say is I'm somewhat disappointed and Johnny, it all are not liking Cribage.
29:18
Great game, favorite card game, I guess it was. It's been
29:23
passed down my grandfather to my father to me, so that it's my fondness
29:27
for it. But I probably bet that Johnny Doller is more of a poker
29:32
guy. All right, well, listener comments and feedback. We have this
29:37
from Andrew and he right, it's your podcast have been a great enjoyment through
29:41
a bitterly cold Fairbanks winner here in Alaska, most especially since I had double
29:45
knee surgeries while I waited for doctors to get to me. Your programs played
29:49
in the smiles and memories brought through earbuds. Thank you very much. And
29:57
he said that these radio programs remind me of being five to seven years old
30:03
sitting on my grandfather's lap listening to Mystery Theater and other radio programs in the
30:08
hunting check. Thank you for your time and efforts. Hopefully I can make
30:11
monthly contributions to help this great side up and running for my personal utage plus
30:18
radio in Alaska is horrid. Well, we're glad to find you some great
30:25
entertainment through the power of the Internet and every contribution. Definitely appreciate it.
30:30
Andrew did reference the donation, but I'm kind of hard to find and so
30:36
I'm going to work on that. I'm thinking of making trying to modify their
30:41
data we have at support dot Great Detectives dot net so that it's so that
30:48
it's set during the times we're not doing The listener support campaign is kind of
30:52
a all ye all your donation spot that will work for people and be easy
31:02
for folks to find. So thanks for all your feedback and for your great
31:06
support, and to hope your recovery continues to go well up there in Alaska.
31:11
I've always thought it'd be fun to go to Alaska in the summer.
31:14
I don't know if I'd want to stay a whole time with those long days,
31:18
but maybe a couple of them wouldn't be so bad. Always been a
31:22
bit of a not all and reluctant to go to sleep, so two or
31:27
three twenty hour days it seems like it'd be an interesting concept. Well,
31:33
anyway, that'll do it for today. We'll be back tomorrow with Sherlock Holmes
31:41
and then join us on Friday for the bake finale as we wrap up the
31:45
Alvin Summers matter in the meanwhile, your comments appreciated. Box thirteen at Great
