1:07
Palace Matter Part five from Hollywood. It's time now for Johnny Dollar. This
1:17
is Chief Waterer's Barnsborough Police. You call me, Oh yeah, Chief,
1:19
I understand you're out at Sally Button's place on the edge of tom What can
1:23
I do for you? Better get out here, Chief fast? Yeah,
1:25
to pick up a body tonight and every weekday night. Bob Bailey in the
1:37
Transcribed Adventures of the Man with the Action Packed Expense Account, America's fabulous freelance
1:42
insurance investigator yours truly, Johnny Dollar from Special Investigator Johnny Dollar, location,
2:00
Cod Harbor, Massachusetts to the Inner Coastal Maritime and Life Insurance Company bost him
2:06
assignment the Meg's palace matter reported and expense a count continued. Whoever shot young
2:15
Charlie Buttons there at his sister's home in Barnesborough had disappeared down the gravel road
2:20
in a cloud of dust, hence the call to the police. Chief Walters
2:23
was in his late thirties and definitely on the ball. He made a quick
2:25
call to the corner and then in his car we took off for Cod Harmon.
2:30
We pretty much left him alone over there in Cott Harbor and mister Dollar
2:34
and so far they've always managed to keep the peace. This time, Yeah,
2:37
I listen, Chief, and I'll give it to your fans. Yes,
2:38
do that. Meg McCarthy got some threats to burn her place down.
2:42
Notify the insurance company. They sent me out, understandable. First night there,
2:46
I spotted a prowler around the cafe, but before I could get to
2:49
him, somebody slugged me from behind. You didn't know who not then,
2:52
but the parlor turned out to be Tim Beasley. You're well your deputy over
2:55
there. I guess you'd call him a sort of you know, self appointed
2:59
lazy lout. But didn't he know who'sled you? He said, Not was
3:02
Meg herself there. She has a powerful right dollar. Yeah, I thought
3:05
of that too, but let me go on. Now. The next morning
3:07
I went out on the Lily, Anne got tossed overboard, and believe me,
3:12
she's the propeller on one of those boats. As much fun to tangle
3:14
with, as Doctor Champion told me he'd had to go over to fix you
3:16
up. Yeah, anyhow, I was sure that whoever was after me was
3:20
a member of that crew. Had to be. I see, when I
3:23
came to back at Megs, I had visitors, the crew loaded with sympathy,
3:27
the crew, that is, except for Charlie Buttons. And that's why
3:29
you traced him to his sister's house. Uh huh? And chief he confessed.
3:32
Then, I don't understand what he said. He was forced to do
3:36
those things by somebody who knew of his criminal record and was holding it over
3:38
his head. Criminal record, Charlie Buttons, Yeah, it seems he killed
3:43
a man once when he was just a kid. The point is this other
3:46
person threatened to expose Charlie unless Charlie did his bidding. So Charlie, not
3:50
being very bright, didn't think he had a chance. You find out who
3:53
this other person is. That's when somebody shoved a gun through the window and
3:55
back them. He shot him then took off in the proverbial cloud of dust.
4:00
How are you doing on suspects? Oh? Brother? Too many?
4:02
Meg of course named her rivals in the cafe business right from the beginning.
4:05
Well, I wouldn't caught them very good suspects. And there's Captain Billy Morgan,
4:11
her intended husband. What a pair. And if I know Captain Billy,
4:15
he was just scrounging a lot of free meals. So incidentally I saw
4:19
him in Barnsburg just before you call uh, Well, Captain Billy is beneficiary.
4:24
It makes life policy, and he still has a lot of doing in
4:27
the Lilyan I understand, m Who else Tim Beasley? What? Yeah?
4:33
What Dollar? I know he's a good for nothing bum who's taking that job
4:38
of acting mayor acting police chief, acting everything else so he can live off
4:43
the out of the land over there. Did you also know that Clem Harris,
4:46
who runs the other big cafe, is his cousin his cousin, eh
4:49
oh, and Beasley never kept his promise to dig up the threatening notes,
4:54
make received and compare them with the handwriting of the others. Then look good,
4:58
does it? What do you think? She? I'm beginning to wonder
5:01
if Tim Besley will be there when we get to Cod Harbor. As it
5:10
turned out, Tim Beasley was very much in evidence, So was the whole
5:14
population of Cod Harbor. Or as the lights of the little fishing village slowly
5:17
hovinged the view, I saw another light down with the waterfront, or rather
5:20
a big reddish glow, And as we pulled him closer, we could see
5:25
the long tongues of flame leaping up. What it cost yep makes Palace was
5:30
on fire. Chief Waters stepped on it. We took the last few turns
5:32
on two wheels. Poses of all sorts and shapes and sizes connected the pump
5:40
support. The nearby fishing boats were throwing powerful streams of water. It makes
5:43
palace. At the back, where the fire had apparently snided, the flames
5:46
continue to spread, even looking along the ground behind the building. That means,
5:50
I said, Johnny, oil a gasoline spreading around back there? How
5:54
don of a Chief look at different spread the boat. Captain who nose,
6:00
but grab a horse, you get to work, and some hose off one
6:02
of their boats. Don't go re your crazy water. Captain Billy Morgan was
6:06
running the show, and every one of my prize suspects was in there working
6:10
his head off, all of them taking orders from Captain Billy. And then
6:14
I realized that Frank McCarthy was nowhere around, and I noticed something else.
6:17
All the firefighting was directed toward the back of the building. The front,
6:20
thanks to the wind, was untouched, but that's where mke McCarthy's room was.
6:25
Chief Chief Horrors. Hey, Johnny, where are you going, run
6:28
chef? Give me your hand. What see that window up there? I'm
6:30
not going to climb up on the front roof of the place. Well bright
6:32
up, crest up there. I gotta take that chance, because I think
6:35
I can blow this whole case right open. I'll punch your hands so I
6:39
can step on them and hoist me up. But even right here, the
6:41
heat it's still in my hand. Quick crime. Okay, Johnny, but
6:44
I think you're crazy. Yeah, here you go. The heat was almost
6:50
unbearable of them in woof, I knew I had to do it. I
6:55
crawl low along the shingles, hoping the rock and old roof would hold.
6:58
A withering blast that fell like fire itself, hit me full on the face
7:00
as I broke the window. The nice look and then she lay stretched out,
7:04
unconscious on her bed. There was an ugly ribbon mike across her forehead
7:08
where somebody had struck her down then left her there. The mercy of the
7:11
fire got ey do all The stearing heat seemed to press in on me and
7:15
gulf me, and the open window gave a draft to the flames that were
7:17
already looking at the sides of the open door. Somehow I managed to lap
7:21
a blanket around, covering her face, and stagger the window blindly groping for
7:26
it. Got eye, let's do it, the window. Get got hold
7:30
on us there, all right, Jockie, you're all right now, I
7:34
got you. It's all right, boy, all right, it's all right,
7:59
Johnny boy. Outside of having your hair singed and therese no suit of
8:03
cloths, you're okay, Thank goodness, you are, Meg, But tell
8:07
me, oh, take it easy. You got a bad burn on that
8:11
left arm, and you got a lie still. Yeah, would you believe
8:13
it? It was Clem Harris, the one I always thought was such an
8:16
old good bladder sky that give us each a place to stay here to this
8:20
house. I wondered where I was when I came to a few minutes ago.
8:22
I misjudged the man. But how about you make Oh bless you,
8:28
darling. You saved my life and I'll never forget it, made the good
8:31
Lord strike me down. But I hadn't been for you, Oh I think,
8:35
Johnny boy, you'd be laying still. And that pile of ashes out
8:37
there that was once to me a nice cafe. I love you, Johnny
8:43
boy, and I'm humble and I'm grateful. Meg that mark on your head,
8:46
that dirty bladder and spart pin who snuck up in your room and knocked
8:50
me down and left me there. I murderized him when I find him,
8:54
that dirty con. How could I when he snuck up from behind me cheap
9:00
or just couldn't? I must say you two look pretty good considering ready for
9:07
a visitor, Johnny had chief, Johnny, are you sure you want visitors?
9:11
Until you're feeling bad? Boys right in here? You're a billy boy.
9:18
What's the matter with you? Willy? That look on your face and
9:22
your chief waters. What is the idea of locking up my Willie boy like
9:26
some dirty scoundrel of a crook when you tried so hard to save my cafe
9:30
from that awful fire? Who do you think you are like that? You
9:37
snap? Yes, darl I want shimmer down. I want a big idea
9:41
rested me that way. Who do you think you're around here? And I'm
9:43
talking to you Dollar? You went too far, Captain Billy, I went
9:48
too far. You're off your course. What are you talking about? Yes,
9:52
Johnny boy, if you was respond yes, sir, I'm talking about
9:56
ison, Captain Billy, and murder and the motives behind them. Motives.
10:01
They were all over the place by half a dozen people, but yours was
10:05
the strongest by far. Off your head. The twenty five thousand insurance on
10:09
Meg's life. That was the way I couldn't let you take your hand.
10:16
But listen, what you're saying is that, Captain, Yeah, let me
10:18
finish this. What do you make it? Played lover boy to it?
10:22
Didn't you, Captain Billy to make sure you would be her beneficiary? Dirty?
10:26
It looked like you right from the first, but I couldn't be sure
10:28
until I compared the writing on the threatening letters with some of your handwriting I
10:33
found. Oh no, so that's the way you've found you dirty underhand,
10:37
Yeah, captain, that's right. Threatening letters to make it look like somebody
10:41
else was out to get her her competitors, for instance, and to leave
10:45
the way clear for you. No, no, I didn't. I mean
10:48
I didn't mean to. Oh no, will it tell me? Touch me?
10:54
Why, Billy? Why'd you do it? I had to. I
10:58
had to have the money, right, was what you mean? Your boat
11:03
with more to your belly and quiet mag fishing? Fishing was my whole life.
11:09
I had to save my boat. I had to get the money for
11:11
a house. Can I I don't know, Johnny boy, Maybe you removed
11:37
to someplace else and open up. I wouldn't have the heart to hear god
11:43
harbor. It would be too just hear that I met him and I believed.
11:48
Well, I guess this old heart of mine wasn't as tough as I
11:52
thought it was. Yeah, I'm sorry, Meg, I'll get over it,
12:00
Sure I will. Meg McCarthy, Johnny Dollar, no bladder in thediot
12:03
of a man is going to keep Meg McCarthy down. Let's hear me,
12:09
No man on this whole earth is worth it. Then all of them just
12:11
a bunch of no good too type. Oh no, no, Johnny boy,
12:18
not you. If only there was more of the likes of you in
12:22
the world. I love you, Johnny boys. And if I will be
12:28
younger and maybe pretty Johnny, Yeah, no, tell me who did you
12:35
ever get the threat letters compared the writing of I just swore that I destroyed
12:39
them. Everyone know something, Meg, I didn't. I never saw them,
12:46
never saw a sample of Captain Billy Morgan's writing either you mean you?
12:50
Oh no, huh, Well it worked I and it serves that cann Ivan
12:56
murder and bladder scutcheon there they are now made. Oh Johnny, I'm afraid
13:09
I really did love him. Yeah, it had been a long shot,
13:22
and thank goodness it had paid off. The court will take care of Captain
13:26
Billy. The insurance on her place, of course, will have to be
13:31
paid to Bank McCarthy, but no life insurance, thank Heaven. Oh poor
13:37
me. It'll be a long long time before she'll fall for sweet talk again.
13:45
Expense a count totaled, including fair and incidentals, back to Hartford two
13:48
twenty one sixty yours truly, Johnny Dollar now here's our star to tell you
14:05
about next week's story. Next week, Well, I say that diamonds are
14:09
a girl's best friend, but I wonder when they're a motive for murder.
14:15
Join us, won't you? Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar, Yours Truly,
14:26
Johnny Dollar is starrying. Bob Bailey is transcribed in Hollywood. It is produced
14:31
and directed by Jack Johnstone, who also wrote this week's story. Heard.
14:35
Our cast were Virginia Gregg, Jack Kruschan, Byron Kin fors Lewis, Bert
14:41
Hollands, Stan Jones, Bob Bruce, Austin Green, and Harry Bartel.
14:45
Musical supervision by A. Marigo Marino and Carl Fortina. Be sure to join
14:50
us on Monday night, same time in Station for another exciting story of Yours
14:54
Truly Johnny Dollar. Roy Rowan speaking, uhh, welcome back. Well,
15:46
Johnny is uh has been bloving the last couple of weeks, worse than a
15:50
poker player. There's nothing but a pair of twos. This wasn't it.
15:56
This was an episode just you know. I think for the performance of Virginia
16:00
greg which really made it work, and I think that she really brought a
16:06
lot of spirit and a nice amount of emotion without going over the top at
16:11
the end. That really made you feel for her for the obvious heartbreak that
16:15
this whole situation meant. Well. Now on to some listener comments and feedback.
16:22
This comes from Marshall, who I'm sorry did not mention at the start
16:26
of the show also support the show, so thanks so much for the donation.
16:30
But Marshall writes, thank you for all the great work you do on
16:36
your podcast, including your commentary. I've been listening for about three years.
16:40
Johnny Doller is my favorite. The stories are usually very good and gripping,
16:44
and for some reason, the acting seems far better than on any other detective
16:48
show I have heard. In fact, the only other old time radio series
16:52
that he's even close to acting in Johnny Dall is gun Smoke. Candy Matson
16:56
was my second favorite show that you podcast, but obviously it was a different
17:00
kind of show with a different level of acting. Yes, definitely different,
17:07
I would comment before I get into his two questions. Probably one big similarity
17:14
between Johnny Dollar and Gun Smoke at this point is the number of programs that
17:21
radio actors could perform in had dropped greatly, so you always had available to
17:29
you just an amazing array of talent that you wouldn't necessarily all have because in
17:36
say, the late forties early fifties, when so many detective shows were so
17:41
strong. So I think that is one reason why the acting is better.
17:45
I have two questions, he says about Johnny Dollar. The announcer used to
17:49
be Roy Rowan, I I believe, but someone else took over recently.
17:53
Do you have any idea what happened. It's taking a while to get used
17:57
to the new person. We've heard this week, Roy Rowan is is back.
18:03
The's probably a vacation coming as it did in the summertime. Roy Rowan
18:11
does stay on for most of the rest of the serial era, but leaves
18:15
pretty quickly once the show goes to a weekly. From what I've read on
18:22
Radio Gold Index, I've not listened too far ahead in terms of weekly programs.
18:29
He also says, I've always found it interesting that almost nothing is ever
18:33
said about how Johnny gets paid. Certainly, each episode has to be centered
18:37
on the expense account, but it seems odd that the fees he gets or
18:41
never mentioned. There are two exceptions that I remember in a recent episode,
18:45
a person he was investigating and seeing Johnny could get a large fee, and
18:48
a far earlier episode talked him about him getting a percentage of the items he
18:51
recovered. I can imagine that those would be normal ways for an investigator paid.
18:55
Have the assurance company need pay on an hour basis, have the insurance
19:00
company pay a fat fee, and have the insurance company pay percentage of the
19:07
monetary value of the items he recovers. Do you have any thoughts on what
19:11
he has been what he has said about the money he gets, Well,
19:14
you're right, it has been kind of all over the board. I think
19:18
that some of this may be because Johnny is a freelance insurance investigator, and
19:25
so different companies may also have different policies about how they pay their investigators.
19:33
Plus, there have been some cases where they felt that there's some additional difficulties
19:37
or some reason they really need Johnny Doler on this particular case, and they're
19:41
willing to go beyond his usual fee. So I think that the fact that
19:48
I think that the fact that there are a variety of insurance cases he works.
19:52
Plus there was one the very first episode we heard in the serial era,
19:57
the McCornick matter, that one he was kind of going on a hunch,
20:07
and then he got permission from the insurance company to submit us an expense
20:11
account, so that would be the reason, I would assume. Then we
20:15
had a comment on Facebook. I've been a fan of old time radio for
20:18
thirty years. I love Bob Bailey's Johnny Doller, but my favorite program is
20:23
Richard Diamond. Oh and I forgot Sherlock's Homes. With only the duo of
20:27
Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce on radio, they are the best. Well,
20:33
we've done Wrathbone and Bruce already. They were actually one of the first programs
20:40
that we did. I think we got to them in December nine and ran
20:44
through their whole series. And of course Richard Diamond is just a couple of
20:48
years away, and we did play a preview show a few weeks back.
20:53
He also said, ask, is there any documentary on how they do a
20:59
radio rama that we can see. I've always had an interest to see how
21:03
they were done. Well, I'm not aware of a good example right off
21:07
the top of my head. There is a radio program that I recommend if
21:11
you're curious about how radio was made, and that's it's called Behind the Mic.
21:18
It's available at archive dot Org. And it's just a great series taking
21:22
a look at how the golden major radio programs were made. So that would
21:27
be my recommendation on that. And as I look here at my other comments,
21:34
none other are specifically Johnny Dollar related. So we will go ahead and
21:40
take a listen to today's episode of Manhunt. This one is the magazine murder,
21:47
and let's go ahead and take a listen man Hunt the clue of the
21:53
magazine murder that led to Mann. No crime has been committed, yeah,
22:08
no murder has been done yet, No man hunt has begun yet. I
22:23
must have a sense of humor. I've got to nurse you and make you
22:26
well so you can marry some other girl. We've gone all over this before,
22:30
Mary. Things, Yes, didn't work out between you and me.
22:33
That's that's everything. God couldn't be No, Mary, we couldn't. Now.
22:38
Please wheel me over to the window. I can put my typewriter on
22:41
the silo work there, all right, that's what you want, Thanks Mary.
22:48
Final Stilman on my murder. Mystery is overdue, a popular magazine gotta
22:53
be done today. I had to get to it, that is, I
22:57
was thinking the same thing. Mm hmm. What does that mean nothing.
23:03
You want me to read the last lines of the installments be published? Yes,
23:08
simply why not? A huge hospital was silent except for the ominous sound
23:15
of the approaching footsteps. But if the murderer coming back to make sure of
23:21
his work, or at once he knew who the fellow wise knew that he
23:25
himself was to be the next victim. He reached for the telephone, and
23:29
it is continued next month. I'll take it from there. The police hurry,
23:42
hurry slowly. Then fa and fiction has head off in a deadly parallel,
23:56
A writer of murder Mysteries Lie's dead shot by an unseen player who will
24:03
take the role of the storybook detectives, who will start the man hunts,
24:17
Man hunts, and the clue of the magazine murder Well father, A busy
24:29
man patter got to get this new singer for a flue at the work it
24:32
does. All we have to do is for some of it on seasons.
24:34
If you don't forget your police laboratory expert, why, oh, nice bussy
24:38
end. He's noticed the sign on the door says private. Private. He
24:42
says, I don't believe in signs on George. If I can believe that
24:47
the one on your doors has detectives. Row, What do you know about
24:51
a guy named George Winston Kirk writer? I think, hey, he's the
24:55
best Kirk the fellows writing that sensational murder serial on popular magazine? What about
25:00
him? He isn't writing it anymore? He's dead. Why you're sitting in
25:04
front of the window in his hospital rooms. He's been sick and you got
25:07
an attack, a lead poisoning from a bullet in his head. Anybody in
25:12
the room here his nurse? The next romance by the way, and the
25:17
gun. The nurse claimed somebody outside the window fired the shot and threw the
25:22
gun in the room. Ground for a room. You're gonna grab an nurse,
25:26
He says, sure she did it. Why should I grab her?
25:30
I want in on a case, so I wanted, And he says,
25:32
you get out. I'm going up to general hospital and get that nurse.
25:37
I'll bring the gun back to you for a fingerprints check might supposed to do.
25:38
In the meantime, I hold your secretary's hand. I want you ought
25:41
to be slugging you with just sitting around. I'm going with you. Bell
25:47
do me a favor and cry I'm sick of having you one of my feet
25:49
when I'm on a murder case. Please try while having a cut to conk
25:55
you one. Physical superiority and mental deficiency are generally allied, though who they
26:00
are, and I'm plenty strong. I'll stick here here, okay, But
26:06
I hope Kirk wasn't killed in the metal delinquent ward at general hospital. They'd
26:11
never let you out. So I love the well. It looks like something
26:18
exciting around here. Finally, what about me? I'd rather have a murder?
26:22
Oh, say Pat? Are you reading the George Winston Kirk murder?
26:25
Must being Popular Magazine? Sure? Who isn't final installment is doom? The
26:29
next issue, isn't it? The murder gets himself good and unmeet? Ye
26:33
have been an idea? You have one with your pa? Yes? Yes,
26:37
operator? Will you get me the editor of Popular Magazine? Please?
26:41
I'll hold it. Say Pat, you remember that in the Kirk story one
26:45
of the murderer's victims, didn't I sure remember he got a look at the
26:48
murderer, but he couldn't be questioned. I don't know who's shocked or something.
26:52
Right. They come in to a hospital and at the ends of the
26:55
installment, in the current popular magazine. It was about to call a police.
26:59
Oh, this is just Davin's police laboratory. Who is this place?
27:02
Finance Cob George Cobb, editor pop in the magazine. Oh, mister carbon,
27:04
I'm calling to find out how the George Winston Kirk story and your magazine
27:08
turns out. I'd like to know myself. I've held up the magazine for
27:11
a week or two. Kirk was well enough to write the final installment,
27:15
but apparently never got to it. Sorry, I can't help it. Okay,
27:19
thanks, just the same. It's all right. I'm going out of
27:22
the hospital now to see if Kirk left any notes lying around. I'll let
27:25
you know if I find anything. Okay, goodbye, blind. Oh it's
27:30
kind of that way to get this coincidence. Guyan Kirk's story is killed in
27:36
the hospital, is about the name of murderer. Then the author was killed
27:41
in the hospital and he's about to write the story. Hold Onrew, how
27:44
do you know the fellow in Kirk's story was trying to be killed? The
27:45
chapter ends with just a door knocked. Good at these pats because I was
27:49
about to form a policeman. Bang the murderer gets me. Oh, Corny,
27:53
what nice and dramatic, right of course. Hello, if there is
28:00
some connection between the actual killing of Kirk and what happened in his story,
28:03
we might have believed we've gotten read the nurse ibout very much, Chief Billy.
28:08
No, we've got one of our cute cases, Pat, No kidding,
28:11
All right, what do we do about it? Well, you check
28:15
all the unsolved crimes with researchond go back to fifteen years if you have to
28:18
see if any actual series of murders was anything like the one Kirk described in
28:22
his story. Maybe Kurt was too close to the truth. Okay, Drew,
28:26
I'll do it. Where are we ki in? Come back here in
28:29
Alfon. I'm going to the hospital. Take care of about Morton's health.
28:33
I just remember that in Kirk's magazine story, one of the last people murdered
28:37
was the detective sergeant investigating the case. He's telling you there were no papers,
28:48
mister Clubs. Go on back to your magazine. I'll tell you if
28:51
anything turns up. But Sergeant Morton, if there are notes, I can
28:53
still hire another writer to complete kirk story. Don't you understand We've got to
28:57
go to pray. I don't care where you got to go, as long
29:00
as it's out of here. Take the back door. I got witnesses way
29:03
out in the hall. Somebody must have seen that. Mons to the gun.
29:07
All right, but I'll be around the hospital here, somewhere here,
29:11
all right, all right, send the next one in. Okay, I
29:18
say that me, he says, get out of here through. I'm busy.
29:23
Reporters, the pests, any, aren't they? Well, I just
29:26
found something. Don't say anything about the nursery. Didn't this star, Hey
29:30
that I found George Winston Kirk's notes on the final chapters of mystery. But
29:34
I'm in the room in which he was murdered that I'll be there all night
29:37
working on him. You got that, Yeah, I got it. Were
29:41
the notes were happened in the morning. But keep to it that the papers
29:44
get that story right away. We want the newspapers to print the fact that
29:47
to final those notes on kirk final installment. Yes, I sure, door
29:49
Bill SOM's patterize here, I'm taking a chance. I'm catching the murderer on
29:53
what might be called the installment plan. It happened to me. I love
30:07
you and sometimes I feel like killing you. This woman isn't healthy. It's
30:11
the woman who's Kirk was killed here thinks about me wanted the laboratory colonium compounds
30:17
good. Now, what did you find out in your check the free file?
30:19
You must be psychic or something. Ten years ago there was a thing
30:23
of actual murders, just like the one's Kirk was described them in the story,
30:26
and the murderer escape better than better. Now that takes this gun in
30:32
that chair and go sit behind a green over. I'm expecting a visitor and
30:36
I want you to keep them covered. When then sift he comes, maybe
30:38
ours take you know me? Yes, that's why I asked a question.
30:44
Fine, I get him her ask me. You may show in a minute.
30:47
But you and I, let's battle of guium. What's your hand?
31:03
Easy with that gun, stranger, I'm a police to help us. I
31:07
don't mind what you are of those papers in your hand. The notes are
31:08
on the final chapter in the Kirk murderously. Oh yeah, but we're standing
31:12
pat on them, I said, we're standing pat on them over Come on
31:17
now, all right, as long as you don't pat me over the head
31:19
with that gun. I said, it's one of those papers. Oh it's
31:26
trouble for a nothing, a nothing. Year are you. I want to
31:30
stay healthy. Don't move for five minutes after I leave here on the fan
31:36
pat pad, wake up. The murderer of George Kirchis paid us a visit
31:41
while you were asleep. Oh, I couldn't help it. I was so
31:44
tired. I know, I know you couldn't keep your eyes open. I'll
31:47
keep him open now. Went out in the hall. All right? But
31:49
who was the visitor? Your head? I don't know you were there.
31:52
I think we can find out much. They're not the kind of life they
31:59
didn't know. Why turn him out? He would say, Which is okay?
32:06
He looks at the floor. It's got a sprint flowing in the door.
32:13
Commit quick, came guys who murdered a dozen people ten years ago,
32:20
Bill George Winston kirk early today. It's had gone on the files apparently for
32:24
authentic police capers to write about, and he hit on one and with the
32:29
murderer was never caught. What a bottle is? You see? When he
32:31
let Church's story, he believed that Kirkman was identity, and maybe he did
32:36
what he wanted to do prevent the lasting Stallman of the mystic story and being
32:38
written. So when the papers announced the dow have the notes which to route
32:42
him up by the way. The murderer had to get them, so he
32:45
paid us a visit. He put them throwing the floor made by my visitor.
32:51
They had frankl Porian compound on the floor. There's nothing name for lady
32:54
invested that woman if he came from and he sat in it the facts on
33:00
cart. Oh what's that down? And we they leaves the door down his
33:04
floor side and that's that. Yeah, okay, okay, hold it,
33:15
quicker, says Julia. I'm not about the whole thing. This isn't Kirk
33:20
murderer. It's his editor George karb had Kirk's editor and his murderer. Bill.
33:24
I'd bet on it, and the murderer of a lot of others do.
33:29
That's right, isn't it, Bob, will never take me alive on
33:31
you or your job. Nice flogging Bill. Hey, look at the bottom
33:38
of his shoes and lying there on the floor. That's how Drew crack him
33:43
down. Boy, Only a genius like that Drew Stevens could fix it so
33:47
that a murderer could be seen only when the lights are out. Welcome back.
34:04
I have to admit I do like the idea of using the using the
34:10
paint to to do the footprints. It's kind of a twist on something we've
34:19
heard on a couple of shows where we're kind of the fluorescent paint is used
34:25
coming out of the back of a car. Now, whether it would work
34:29
in this circumstance or be possible to work if you could get it dark enough
34:34
in there. I am not certainly not a chemistry expert, but certainly welcome
34:40
to interpretations. Bill just wow. I have to admit that Bill is probably
34:47
next to next to Inspector Hellman on pat Novak for Hire. Bill is probably
34:55
the most unlikable official police character that have encountered. He basically goes over to
35:04
the police lab and says, hey, here's an interesting case, and by
35:07
the way, you cannot come. And then we do have a comment from
35:13
Mark who says, thanks for getting these shows out. Well, I'm definitely
35:17
glad to do So that'll do it for today. Join us back here tomorrow
35:22
