3:00
me, I do have a job that's too tough for me to handle,
3:02
and only you can help me. You see, I'm away from the man
3:07
I love very much. The only thing that will bring us together is your
3:13
meeting me at the bus terminal the very moment I get there at ten h
3:15
six wednes They love Brooksie. Oh John Bristol coffee shop a joining bus terminal
3:34
Web Breakfast seventy five. I told you I already had brick. Well,
3:38
y'all have another one. Oh, Brooksie, your cousin's wedding did something to
3:42
you? You look? Yeah, well, radio good enough to serve on
3:46
a silver pladder. Hey, that's an idea, a silver blad. Everybody,
3:50
look, I'm happy, don't Oh it's oh my. You know what
3:54
happened when Mary krew a bridal bouquet. I caught it. When a girl
3:58
catches a wedding bouquets to mean she's gonna get married, really wants to say
4:01
something new, seriously, Brookly. Without you in the office, I don't
4:10
know where a thing is. And then I'm George, do that great haired
4:14
gentleman table in the corner? Yeah? I noticed you're looking at him before.
4:17
He's got just like that in the bus too, his top coat buttoned
4:19
up to his neck, all tents and wall frightened. Ah huh. He
4:25
doesn't seem to be touching his coffee. I thought the trip was making a
4:28
mill f You know how it is with people sometimes, So I tried talking
4:30
to him to take his mind off you know, things about the office and
4:34
you. Oh, no, one of the poor man's not feeling well.
4:38
Well, it was a long trip and I'm a friendly type. Now.
4:42
That redhead over there going into the hotel bar nice. I spoke to her
4:47
too, but not about you. The man wanted to sign in her eyes.
4:55
Her face is two beautiful, her legs are too nice, and she
4:57
has practically no waste at all. I wonder when holds here together. Well,
5:02
believe it or not, she works with a journal, a reporter.
5:06
She was away on vacation. But that gentleman we were talking about it.
5:11
I think he wants to see us, and just sort of motioned me over
5:14
there. Would you suppose he wants? Why not ask him? Come on,
5:20
be zell. I hope there's something we can do for it, that's
5:23
right. Someday I may be somebody's grandfather. Yes, I know I've got
5:27
it all aways. Yeah, hello, say you want to drink at coffee?
5:31
It don't make you feel better? Oh story, young lady. Don't
5:35
want to impose. But but oh no, wait, I'm at an easy
5:41
I'll try to get up. You're in pretty bad ship, he said,
5:44
no, would would you do me a favor. Yeah, sure, would
5:48
you register me here at the hotel? See the door? Get upstairs of
5:54
course. Hey, just hold on to my arm. Thank you. What's
5:58
you get on the other side? That's all right now just take it easy.
6:01
Here we go right through here to the lobby. On the bus,
6:05
the nady was telling me about young friend. To talk now books. He
6:11
take the gentleman over to the elevator. Wait there till I sign in?
6:15
Oh what name? Shall I get a name? Name? Oh? Well,
6:19
I'm sure you have to have anyone? Uh Redman. Why shouldn't I
6:25
use it now? Philip Redman? Okay, I'll be right back. We'll
6:31
be upstairs in a minute, mister Redmond. You'll be all right in my
6:36
coat pocket here, miss will you take that out? Go ahead? Please?
6:44
You want it? That's right. Money. Tell your friend to take
6:48
as much as he needs. Why what for? Please hurry get me upstairs
7:05
easy now, mister Redmond. He just press back in his chair. We
7:10
got that water verson, Oh you are to lie down? Yes, and
7:16
let's get that code off. No, no, no, I'll be all
7:20
right in a minute. No, I will I must wait out. Look
7:26
in his wallet. Maybe he has friends relatives in town. We can No,
7:29
I have nobody here. You must help me whatever money you need.
7:34
Yes, of course, George, I think you have to call a doctor.
7:40
It's funny. The name of this wallet is Walter Haskell. And he
7:44
said, Redmond, while you call a doctor, I'm going to get this
7:48
code off and try to make him comfortable. No, please don't. Oh
7:51
now he's going to do just as I came Joe. Oh yeah, I
7:58
think we'd better call the police, as was the doctor. He's been shot.
8:01
Let me have that glass of water all right now here, mister Redmond
8:05
trying to drink this. Don't call anybody. And I said, please,
8:09
no time to talk now, we got to do something about you. You
8:11
must get me there, nothing else matter. What are you trying to say?
8:18
Get me cold? H here? Here are no, No, she
8:26
doesn't. Nobody's talking about something in another thing, George, he's oh,
8:39
yeah, we can forget the doctor. Rosy, just the police. Oh
8:43
no easy, yeah? Hello? What coming up here? Well? Yes,
8:52
but okay, number wine thanks Rose. I don't know, but we
8:58
got to get out of here. Still the line come on, just as
9:01
I say, no, no, not the elevator this way. This thing
9:05
is stay back out of the car. They said, they won't see us.
9:07
Oh what is it do? That was the desk clerk on the phone.
9:09
He said two of mister Redman's friends were on their way up, but
9:13
he said he didn't know anybody in the just it. What do you make
9:16
of all this? Ruling them out as friends? They're probably hit a finish
9:18
the job they started somewhere else. You think there, What are we going
9:22
to do? You beat it downstairs and call Lieutenant Johnson, tell him exactly
9:24
what happened you. I'll stay right here and see if I can get a
9:28
look at our two visitors. Be careful, get knowing brook seeing. I'll
9:31
see it down in the lobby. What took you so long? We're seeing
9:41
trouble, getting Lieutenant Johnson in trouble making him believe me when I did.
9:45
They're on their way. Did you see who the men were? No,
9:46
John, and I couldn't without being seen myself. No. Well, you
9:50
keep your eye on that elevator, take a good look at everybody who comes
9:52
down. Where are you going? See the desk clerk? Oh, what
10:01
can I do for you, mister Redbon? I'm not mister Redbon, but
10:03
you hope now really, now, really, the guests in our hotel are
10:07
in the habit of registering under their right names. Well, I'm sure the
10:11
Hotel Owners Association will be glad to hear that. Now, listen, mister
10:15
Flatt, Horace Flatt. Okay, those two men who went upstairs, did
10:18
they ask for mister Redmond by name? Well, no, not exactly.
10:22
Uh huh. They merely said they wanted the room number of the party of
10:26
three that just went up in the elevator. You, the elderly gentleman and
10:31
the young lady. They said they were friends of yours. I see anything
10:35
wrong? Well did they see the registration card by any chance? But of
10:39
course I had to look up the room number. I don't keep everything in
10:41
my head. Okay, okay, Anyway, that old gentleman knew, whoever
10:46
he is, should know better than to go out again in his condition.
10:48
Go on, what do you mean? Oh? Really? Now, you
10:52
don't have to bark at me, but a man at his age should certainly
10:54
get over the night before, that is, before starting off on another Look,
10:58
Horace, do you know what you're talking about? Well? I certainly
11:00
saw him just a few minutes ago. His two friends had to hold him
11:03
up, and the three of them went staggering out of the lobby together.
11:05
Maybe I can still catch up with him now, Really, you can't go
11:09
charging through our lobby like that, knocking people out of the way. Who
11:13
are you anyway? I saw you running out of the lobby. Had happens?
11:24
Well brace yourself, Brook, See those two guys took Redmond or Haskell
11:28
or whoever he is for a walk and a ride. Are you talking about?
11:31
They did that while I was waiting for you to get that call through
11:33
the Johnson Get the impossible here, I know, I know, this seems
11:37
to be our day for the impossible. The doorman saw three men come out
11:41
a few minutes ago, one of them a little under the weather. They
11:43
filed into a car and drove off. Oh you know, I'm kind of
11:48
glad the police would be taking over some here. Oh I'm afraid they're gonna
11:50
have to put up with me. What do you mean? Let's see when
11:52
a client of mine highest me to look after him, I stick with him
11:56
dead or a line. We'll return to to Night's adventure of George Valentine in
12:07
just a moment. Did you ever stop to think that each time you buy
12:13
motor oil for your car, you're making a mighty important decision. More times
12:16
than not, it's the choice of motor oil that makes a big difference in
12:20
engine performance and can actually mean dollars saved from excessive wear. Consider this fact
12:26
when you buy motor oil. Heavy duty RPM motor oil has consistently proven its
12:31
ability to reduce wear and greatly increase the time between major overhauls due to lubrication.
12:37
In addition, heavy duty RPM motor oil gives extra protection against gummy carbon,
12:43
acid and corrosion. So if you want to increase time between overhauls and
12:48
reduce repair bills, if you want top protection and performance from your car,
12:52
if buying the best brand of motor oil is important to you, then switch
12:56
over now to heavy duty RPM motor oil. Next time you need oil,
13:01
ask for and make sure you get heavy duty RPM motor oil at independent Severn
13:07
gas stations and standard stations where they say and mean we take better care of
13:13
your car. A gentle, gray haired man refuses to take off his top
13:24
coat. When he does, you make the startling discovery that he'd been shot,
13:30
and afterwards, even more startling, his body is walked out of the
13:33
hotel room by two so called friends. Yes, these are the incredible ingredients
13:39
of a nightmare that happens in the full blade of noon. And even if
13:43
your name is George Valentine, you're afraid you might wake up screaming. The
13:48
radiot is still in the bar, George, John. But why do you
13:52
want to talk to her and alone? Well, she did come in on
13:54
that bus with you and mister Redman. She just might know something. Meet
13:58
your I here, Hello, Well, where did you come from? And
14:16
why didn't you get here soon? I take it you wouldn't scream if I
14:20
join you? How obvious can I be in a public place? You know?
14:26
You look like the kind of man who could provide a lot of excitement.
14:31
Or by the way, what's the man's name, Valentine, George?
14:37
And what can you suggest for excitement? Depends how obvious I can be in
14:41
a public place. I like you, Valentine, George. You look like
14:48
the kind you let a girl walk on the outside. Oh, I see
14:52
in other words, a mug a bruising. You'll go for that time,
14:54
don't you could? I what's the girl's name? William Jenny of the Journal,
15:01
Why, yeah, we're gonna have a little talk Williams. Jenny,
15:03
you'll place an ad in your paper and then we'll get together in my office
15:07
tonight. Heart keep the change. I looked in all the papers, Jenny,
15:20
and there's not a word about mister Haskell's murder. Well, Claire,
15:24
that's not so strange. Homicide boys don't like to cry murder without the good
15:28
old corpus delecti. It's exhibit as we saw the corpus delecti. All right,
15:31
Jenny, But from that point on nothing makes sense. I know.
15:35
Let's assume, and there's no reason why we shouldn't. Those two men were
15:39
the ones who tried to kill Haskell or Redmond. What do they want with
15:43
his body? They must have had a good reason taking the chance they did,
15:46
two of them hustling out of the lobby in broad day. And we
15:50
find the answer to that, we'll be getting somewhere. I've got an off
15:52
the record statement from Lieutenant Johnson. The police are doing everything they can and
15:58
arrest is expected momentarily. In short, they're getting nowhere fast. Yeah.
16:03
I'm sorry. I couldn't be of any help, George. I'd even noticed
16:07
the man in the bus. I know this is bad. You hadn't put
16:11
in the journal important. Anyone having knowledge of Philip Redman kindly contact George Valentine
16:18
addressed, phone number, etc. You sitting on something. You should have
16:23
told the police. I told you you'd get your story when it breaks.
16:26
Besides, I'm just playing a hunch. Philip Redman was the name the old
16:30
fellow gave me to register him at the hotel. Kind of fancy variation on
16:34
the usual Smith A. Jones. I don't know, Brooks. I think
16:37
he started to give the name we found in his wallet, Walter Haskell,
16:41
but then he said Redmond. Why shouldn't I use it? Now? Remember,
16:45
Yeah, that's right, I do. He was almost defined about it.
16:48
And you figure that anybody knowing of Philip Redman can tell you about Walter
16:51
Haskell. Yeah, something like that. I know it's something. Yeah,
16:56
but you ain't got that caught on that desk lamp quick. God, that's
17:00
better. We don't want any light. George, where are you? I'm
17:04
here at the window. See anything? Yeah? Yeah, the other building
17:08
and all the windows in the world to shoot from, Darling, be careful.
17:11
They can't see us. Now. It's a good thing that desk lamped
17:15
through your shadow off a little to the sun. Yeah, that bullet was
17:18
meant for my curly little head. All right, Jenny, your paper can
17:22
have my testimony over ads that get results. Sure that irresponsible Nimrod out There
17:27
was undoubted at least somebody having knowledge of Philip Redmond. Oh and you can't
17:32
say you didn't get in touch with you. Nice pattern. But Oscar levant
17:34
does it better. There's at least one part of this puzzle that's beginning to
17:37
make sense. They removed mister Haskell because they didn't want anybody to identify him
17:42
as Ribbon. Now how do you get that? Because Brooks see now that
17:45
they realize I know he was known as Redmond too, they're out to get
17:48
rid of me. That's something i'd worry about. Oh I worry all right,
17:51
But I also found something for me to do. Yeah, I'm a
17:52
test I'm going over to the Bristol I've got something to check with a desk
17:56
clerk, something our friends might have overlooked, although I doubt it. You
18:11
two ladies stay by the entrance. I'll be right back, Yes, sir,
18:18
good idy. Oh where's the other fellow who was on the desk today,
18:23
Horace? He wasn't feeling very well one of the boys had taken home.
18:29
Oh, I see kind of suddenly. Yes, I'm a friend of
18:33
his. He asked me to take his place. Well, I guess you
18:37
can help me, yes, sir, Well, I want to look through
18:41
your registration cards for today. I don't know if I take my word for
18:47
it. It's important. If you don't believe me, you can ask the
18:48
police. I guess it's all right here. They're just feel okay. Thanks,
19:00
find what you want? No, no, I didn't, But don't
19:03
take it to high friend. I didn't expect to so long. And thanks
19:07
again. Don't mention it well, George to find I was right. They
19:17
didn't know what look a thing not there? Uh No, anybody investigating would
19:21
never find out by the records that a man named Philip Redmond registered here today.
19:26
I don't think there's much stubt what this means. I think I know
19:29
what you mean, and I don't like it. Those two walked out of
19:32
here with our friend today because they didn't want anybody to know his real identity.
19:34
Somehow they lifted the registration card to make sure. They even tried to
19:40
kill me to make doubly sure. You ought to pass the next round George,
19:42
put yourself in the capable hand to Lieutenant Johnson. Those boys are still
19:47
out to get you, and it could be anybody, anybody out there on
19:48
the street. Here in the lobby, George, Jenny's right, let's turn
19:52
you. What was the old fellow trying to tell us upstairs? If we
19:56
at least knew that? Come on, Brooksie, think back. Just what
19:59
did he say? Well, he was feverish, George. He kept saying
20:02
he wanted to get somewhere, was willing to pay you to help him.
20:06
That's all he was trying to tell us where you remember after he refused that
20:10
drink of water asked for his call. I know, as you'd better stay
20:14
with plenty of people around you, and you're back to the wall, better
20:17
still pour out your trouble little heart to Johnson. Yeah, yeah, I
20:21
guess you're right, Jenny, especially with Brooksie on the same spot with me.
20:25
Come on and the way to Lieutenant Johnson. Wait a minute, hold
20:37
everything, but holy we just heard the answer and the beautiful pear shaped tones
20:41
of the bus dispatcher. I don't get it. Fairfield, Clayton and Coatesville,
20:45
Coatsville, That's what Redman was trying to say. That's why he said
20:48
coat even after he refused it. There wasn't anything in that coat, and
20:52
he wasn't fevery she said, get coat. He was trying to say,
20:56
get me to Coatsville. How can you be sure he got off here in
21:00
this terminal, because it's the only place you can get a bus to Coachville,
21:02
adds up. Couldn't be, It couldn't be. You're want to make
21:03
sure it's to go there and see if the name Redmond means anything in that
21:07
town. If so, just what hey, Jenny, here's what you can
21:10
do with that story. I promise for you. Check the morgue at the
21:12
journals. See if Philip Redmond and Coachsville go together somehow? Right? What
21:17
about you. I'll be waiting in a bus terminal there in the morning.
21:18
Get there as soon as you can. We'd better hurry, George, if
21:21
we're going to make that bus leaving, not this time, brout see,
21:22
you put yourself on the care of the good lieutenant. I don't want anything
21:26
happening to you. See you in the morning, Jenny. You can't leave
21:29
me like this now you hear me? Or hold it? You're got another
21:41
passenger. Thanks? Oh I just ready. Well you're not going to hug
21:48
the whole seat, are you? Oh no? Oh yeah? Oh no,
21:55
love, busy I'm serious, has already gone. I know, I
21:59
know, I'll stop for just this morning you said I was willing to spend.
22:03
I'll scream. I'll scream and tell the driver you're molesting me, and
22:06
then you'll throw you off. I don't care. No, no, no,
22:08
no, it's all right. Drive the lady just remember she forgot to
22:12
turn the gas off under the roast. Oh, sit down, you,
22:18
Benedict Donald. I don't want to see another bus terminal as long as I
22:34
live, and I won't be long if we don't stick right out here with
22:37
am adding crowd. This is a case of safety and numbers. Oh,
22:41
I'm not afraid. Last night you were quaking in your little open toes sandals,
22:48
and now you're a blind spirit. I'm with you, just the two
22:51
of us, though, I'm not afraid. Oh, women, From four
22:55
o'clock this morning until now five hours, I wonder what it feels like to
23:00
lie down. Yeah, Jenny should be here soon anyway. There's nothing we
23:04
can do until Coolsville. Like, sorry, that man over there, he
23:07
keeps staring at us. I'm so sinister looking. He does look a little
23:15
ugly. You don't think he's one of those, you know. I think
23:19
we're gonna find out he's headed this way. Would you run down easy?
23:22
Now? Wouldn't dare do anything in front of all these people? Yes,
23:26
but maybe he's an exhibitionist me. Could you direct me to the local way
23:30
of Oh, well, I think the gentleman at the information desk and help
23:37
you. Oh of course, I stay at the way straight stop. This
23:44
is certainly the nicest way to work up a persecution. He compla, oh,
23:48
it's all over now. Hey, here comes Jenny, and if she
23:51
makes any passes at you all pop her right in her profile. Angel,
23:53
that's the nicest compliment, A boy of a guy. My place you got
23:57
here? It's small all that. We call it home. Of course,
24:00
when we get some curt what'd you find out, Jenny, George? You
24:04
got me on the trail of a real story if it checked. Here.
24:07
Take a look at this picture. I found it at the morgue of the
24:11
journal. Yeah. Is that redmanner, isn't it? Sure he's younger there,
24:15
but it's the same manner. Well, that was taken fifteen years ago,
24:18
when his face was in all the papers the time he disappeared, disappeared,
24:22
took a powder, vanished into thin air. He was only the mayor
24:25
of this thriving little community. Whoa you know? When he disappeared, he
24:29
left a real mess behind him. All through his administration he was playing footy
24:33
with some big mobsters. Together they took coats filth for plenty. Very interesting.
24:37
He seemed like such a nice gentleman. Maybe he was coming back because
24:41
his conscience was matter why he was coming back. The point is somebody didn't
24:45
like the idea, didn't like the idea of his coming back to life at
24:49
all. But fifteen years he must have lived somewhere as Walter Haskell and our
24:53
unseen friends have still been on keeping in the name of Redmond, dead and
24:56
forgotten. They don't want anybody knows him back into the old scandal. Maybe
25:00
there are big names involved that could be it. No wonder the plane rough.
25:04
I think you can unload this to the police now, George, No,
25:08
not yet, not to like fi a little experiment. What if we're
25:11
the only ones who know that Redmond and Haskell are one and the same.
25:15
Why not trade in on it. Let's make our unseen playmates show their hands
25:19
by getting a list of Coachsville's hotels and well seeing if curiosity doesn't kill something
25:25
else besides cats. Barrington Hotel is number three. You know there are only
25:38
three hotels in town, George, and the other two would no soap.
25:44
Look, George, maybe this theme of yours is just a little too meat.
25:47
I don't think there's any doubt that they knew I took that bus.
25:48
He at a coach Filman. Why now there should be here somewhere. Chances
25:53
are they'd hold up on one hotel or another. Well, shall we try
25:56
the old routine again? Yeah? Sure, me as well. Here's the
26:00
telegram. Go ahead and slip the bell boys a little Brian. Yes,
26:03
thank you, sir, George. If somebody does claim that telegram, don't
26:08
take any chances, will you. I just got home. I remember they
26:15
think goes the bell Ter High School telegram for Water High School. I keep
26:19
your eyes open. Look around, Brooksy. Does that get a rise out
26:22
of anybody? I don't know. There's several people looking at telegram for Water
26:27
at Look. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I see him, I see
26:30
him. I stay here, Brooksy, right here, boy, I'll take
26:34
it, Oh mister high school. Yes, that's me anyway, Thank you,
26:40
thank you. What'll probably a little telegram, isn't it? Take it
26:49
out myself? Yeah, message number eighteen for proud parents of a new sun.
26:55
What do you want? Let me read it for you. Now you
26:59
can say it with pride enjoy. Here's our very own little boy. Hello,
27:03
Sonny, don't tell me you're the desk clerk here too. I don't
27:07
know what you're talking about. You arranged to take four horses place at the
27:11
Bristol yesterday, didn't you? So you could get rid of Redmond's registration card?
27:15
Incidentally, what hospital have you got Horace in? Look? I don't
27:18
have to keep your hands out of your pockets. I got one of those
27:21
things to old. Get away from them before it. Give me that Take
27:25
this gun. It spoils your shape, all right? Busted? That's much
27:27
better. George. Didn't the man about it? He is that he is?
27:30
Well? We gotta buy, didn't we? Look? He just couldn't
27:33
resist finding out who could be sending Walter Haskell a telegram? Could you?
27:37
What's really the name? They got under your pin up picture in the post
27:41
office. He's the loquacious type. Isn't it. Oh, he's just saving
27:45
it all up for Lieutenant Johnson, and then he can talk and sing at
27:49
the same time, not one, not two, but all eight. You
28:03
probably know by now that means Chevern Supreme, the gasoline that gives you all
28:07
eight high performance qualities. Maybe you know too that these eight qualities are quick
28:11
starting, fast warm up, smooth acceleration, anti knock, vaporlock prevention,
28:18
full power, economy, mileage, and area blending. But the point I
28:22
want to make is this, You'll never know what all this can mean in
28:26
real driving pleasure until you try Chevern Supreme gasoline in your car. So why
28:32
wait any longer. Next time you need gas, pull in and fill up
28:34
with Chevern Supreme Gasoline at any vanted station or independent Chevern gas station where they
28:41
say A mean we take better care of your car. Would you mind telling
28:57
me? Why are we going to the household fixtures department? Angel You'll see,
29:03
okay, hey, you know how curious mister Rainey sang all right.
29:07
Mister Redman did have pangs of conscience, and he was going back to tell
29:11
all Mary made the loveliest looking bride. He was living in Fullerton for the
29:15
last fifteen years. His playmates kept an eye on him all the time,
29:21
but he finally decided to turn boy Scott. That's when they shot him.
29:25
Somehow he managed to escape and got on that bus with you. By a
29:27
real nice wedding present from Marian Deal. We found poor Redman in the shack
29:32
out of flat Land meadows, and so everything is tied up in a neat
29:34
little package. How much these chimes are twelve fifteen? I'll take two of
29:45
these, but Angel, what's the other one for? If I live long
29:49
enough to find out? Welcome home, Darling, Welcome home to Night's transcribed

Don Lee Broadcasting System. Welcome back. Well a solid a fairly suspenseful episode,
31:15
trying to figure out what was going on, and not the traditional detective
31:22
mystery that they dealt with in terms of a bunch of suspects lined up,
31:27
but still a pretty good story. By the way, there were two lost
31:33
episodes. The ones that we missed were for Promised Joy and the Puzzle Lock.
31:38
All right, well, listener comments and feedback, and we have this
31:44
from E. R. Richardson and E. All rights. Hey, Adam,
31:48
after about two years, I have finally caught up to your current podcast.
31:52
Did I hear you right that it would be about two years before you
31:56
start? Richard Diamond? I will be going through Withdraws without George and Brooksie,
32:01
so I was hoping for another long running series. Thanks for your hard
32:06
work. Well Er, I'll tell you if I said two years, I
32:13
was wrong. It's going to be about three years. But that doesn't mean
32:16
we're not going to have some long running series in the meanwhile coming to Thursdays
32:23
in about three months a few I think, maybe a week more than that,
32:28
about thirteen weeks, well actually because we have a special, So about
32:32
four months we will have Nick Carter, a great long running series with Lawn
32:39
Clark in the lead throughout, wonderful series. And of course, you know,
32:45
Monday through Friday, we're going to have the Bob or Monday, Wednesday
32:50
and Friday the Bob Bailey run of yours truly Johnny Dowler, which you know,
32:54
these serial runs really are some of the best radio out there. And
32:59
then and once we finished Johnny Dollar, Wednesdays will actually be dedicated to the
33:05
Philip Marlow program. So we always keep plenty of those long running series around.
33:09
I know we get a lot of requests for him, but there are
33:13
only so many that left behind a lot of recordings, so we have to
33:17
pace ourselves and kind of be careful. So I hope you enjoy the new
33:24
serial Johnny Doller series tremendous, and then four months down the road you're going
33:30
to get to enjoy the Nick Carter series. So I think we'll have a
33:36
lot of enjoyment there all right, Well, that will do it. We
33:39
will be back tomorrow with Sherlock Holmes, and join us on both Monday and
33:45
Wednesday next week for the last two episodes of Let George Do It. In
