When it comes to hard-boiled crime fiction, fewer did wrote it better than Raymond Chandler. One of the titans of the genre, Chandler penned dozens of pulp stories before he introduced his signature character of private eye Philip Marlowe. We'll hear a pair of Marlowe's radio adventures starring Gerald Mohr – "The Baton Sinister" (originally aired on CBS on September 17, 1949) and "The Long Way Home" (originally aired on CBS on August 4, 1951). Then we'll hear "Pearls are a Nuisance," an adaptation of a Chandler short story and originally aired on Suspense (originally aired on CBS on April 19, 1945).
