The Dogcast: “Nero Wolfe:” An Underappreciated Detective Series!
Howdy Folks! It’s The Kendog here with some more weekly old radio fun! One of the more underappreciated series featured the portly detective Nero Wolfe. An incredible well-written series into only lasted 26 episodes between the years 1950 and 1951. I’ve got two for you here from late 1950 for your listening enjoyment. Listen to the banter between Nero (a remarkable Sidney Greenstreet) and his right-hand man Archie Goodwin (played by various talented actors). It’s really good stuff and the mysteries are pretty compelling too. As always, feel free to comment here or on my Facebook page. So Sayeth The Kendog!
The Dogcast: Some Vintage Jack Benny To Give You Some Laughs!
Howdy Folks! It’s The Kendog here to supply a little laughter in these less-than-humorous times. It’s tough out there and sometimes you just need a little escape back to a simpler time. Continuing my features on old radio programs I’ve got a couple for you from my favorite comedy show of all time. These two come from the Jack Benny program in late 1945! The first involves Jack mistakenly believing he’s been invited to movie star Ronald Coleman’s house for dinner. The second features Jack returning the favor and featuring one of the funniest English butlers you’ve ever heard. Enjoy these episodes and feel free to comment below or at my Facebook page! So Sayeth The Kendog!
