Hail Mary

In this week’s show…

There’s music from Bing Crosby, news about new podcasts, a special documentary, and a chance to grab yourself a copy of the fabulous noir publication, The Dark Pages!

Reviews are centred around two Pre-Code treats - one a Capra-esque light comedy about an ancient town founder suddenly finding himself muscled out by progress, and the other a tawdry tale of girl doing all she can to pull herself up out of the gutter.

Radio entertainment comes this week from the Lux Radio Theatre

Episode 14: Obsession

We've had some great... if... mystifying messages...?

Is anyone in the market for a NEW car?

Adam reviews 'The Body Snatcher', 'The Amazing Doctor Clitterhouse' - yes, you read that correctly - 'The Saint's Vacation', and one of Adam's favourite films of all time: 'Obsession' from 1949, starring the breathtaking Sally Gray.

This week's radio play is from The Screen Guild Theatre, and Adam has actually gone out shopping for this week's competition prize. To enter is so very simple, and so very fun...

Also, details of the next Attaboy Clarence Special, which is coming up in a few weeks, and news of next week's radio play, perhaps the most infamous radio play of all time...

Turn the lights down low, and the headphones up high... and remember #sallygray
