Listen Later

Crime on a Wednesday

First,  a look at this day in History.

Then, Counterspy starring Don Maclaughlin and Mandel Kramer, originally broadcast November 19, 1950, 75 years ago, The Case of the Pseudo Spuds.  David Harding investigates a strange plot involving counterfeit dehydrated potatoes—“pseudo-spuds”—being shipped to U.S. military bases. The fake rations are part of a sabotage scheme designed to damage American troop supplies and morale.

Followed by Escape, originally broadcast November 19, 1947, 78 years ago, Casting the Runes starring John McIntire.  A good story about a medieval curse in London that seems to be working quite effectively! 

Then, Suspense, originally broadcast November 19, 1961, 64 years ago, The Black Door starring Robert Readick.  The story of the search for The City Of The Fire God, and the strange secret behind that black door!   Hear every available episode of Suspense in the best available quality and read about the shows at https://suspenseproject.blogspot.com/ 

Followed by Calling All Cars, originally broadcast November 19, 1936, 89 years ago,  The Corpse in the Red Necktie.  A man's body is found in a canyon, naked but for a necktie!

Finally, Claudia, originally broadcast November 19, 1947, 78 years ago, Opera Tickets.  A visit to the opera...in tails?  Kathryn Bard and Paul Crabtree star.
