12
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,799
is the Overground Railroad.

13
00:00:58,399 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 2: Are you willing to undertake a dayangerious mission behind the

14
00:01:01,439 --> 00:01:04,840
enemy lines knowing you may never return alive.

15
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,159
Speaker 3: What you have just heard is the question asked during

16
00:01:15,159 --> 00:01:18,680
the war to agents of the OSS ordinary citizens.

17
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 4: So to this question answered yes.

18
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 5: This is.

19
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:47,079
Speaker 3: Loop and Dagger, Black warfare, espionage, international intrigue. These are

20
00:01:47,159 --> 00:01:51,560
the weapons of the OSS. In tonight's episode, Overground Railroad,

21
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,640
the part of Lieutenant Fontaine OSS agents who helped thousands

22
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,000
of American airmen escape to safety is played by Lestremain,

23
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,439
where he is suggested by actual incidents recorded in the

24
00:02:02,519 --> 00:02:07,120
Washington files of the Office of Strategic Services, a story.

25
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 2: That can now be told.

26
00:02:20,039 --> 00:02:22,599
Speaker 4: When a flyer was forced down behind enemy lines, he

27
00:02:22,759 --> 00:02:26,879
was just another fugitive, moving cautiously at night to avoid detection,

28
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:31,039
fighting for survival. His shelter was a haystacker, a hedgerow.

29
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:35,120
For food, he dug raw potatoes or turnips from the field,

30
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,400
and in his panic he was always just one step

31
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,439
ahead of the Gestapo, with no knowledge of the country

32
00:02:41,479 --> 00:02:44,919
and no friend whom he could turn. A few of

33
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:49,560
the lucky ones managed to escape back to England. I

34
00:02:49,599 --> 00:02:52,120
met one of those lucky ones in Colonel Johnson's office

35
00:02:52,159 --> 00:02:54,879
at OSS Headquarters in London, at Tenafontan.

36
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,039
Speaker 2: This is Major Davidson.

37
00:02:56,039 --> 00:02:58,479
Speaker 4: How do you do? Major lad maya Fontwann Before.

38
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,479
Speaker 2: I asked Major Davidson to tell you a story, I

39
00:03:00,599 --> 00:03:03,919
want to say something, Yes, Colonel Johnson. At its narrowest,

40
00:03:04,319 --> 00:03:07,719
the English Channel is only twenty miles wide. Yet it

41
00:03:07,759 --> 00:03:10,800
took Major Davidson here more than a year to get across,

42
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,120
and hundreds of Allied pilots all over France haven't been

43
00:03:14,159 --> 00:03:16,800
able to make it yet, and if something isn't done

44
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,159
to help them, they never will.

45
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 4: But Colonel, with the Nazis occupying France.

46
00:03:20,879 --> 00:03:23,719
Speaker 2: With the Nazis occupying France, the channel is still only

47
00:03:23,759 --> 00:03:26,759
twenty miles wide. Our trouble has been that up to

48
00:03:26,879 --> 00:03:29,639
now we've had no contact with the French underground, no

49
00:03:29,759 --> 00:03:33,800
way of helping them smuggle pilots out of France. All right,

50
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,000
Major Davidson, go ahead and tell your story now.

51
00:03:36,719 --> 00:03:39,439
Speaker 6: Well, I was shot down over the south of France

52
00:03:39,639 --> 00:03:40,960
coming back from a bombing mission.

53
00:03:41,599 --> 00:03:43,319
Speaker 4: The rest of the crew was killed of.

54
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 6: Just my co pilot, Johnny Porter, and me left. Yes,

55
00:03:47,199 --> 00:03:49,360
go on meet. We figured out am as are up.

56
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,120
Any flyer forced down on enemy territory figures that nowadays.

57
00:03:53,159 --> 00:03:56,400
But we were lucky. A farmer picked us up and

58
00:03:56,439 --> 00:03:59,319
hit us overnight, and then the next morning a big

59
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,599
black limbs drove up and a woman about sixty got out.

60
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:04,039
Speaker 4: She took us to.

61
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 6: Her house in Paris and kept us there. She found

62
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,719
a way to smuggle us across the channel with a

63
00:04:08,719 --> 00:04:10,000
fisherman just a few days ago.

64
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,599
Speaker 4: Who was this woman, Major, Her name is.

65
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 6: Madame Annette Jobert. I used to tell her she meant

66
00:04:16,879 --> 00:04:21,079
more to the Yankee team than Joe DiMaggio. During the

67
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,240
time we were with her, she managed to collect two

68
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,000
more of our boys, but she has no way of

69
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:27,120
getting them out of France.

70
00:04:27,399 --> 00:04:28,759
Speaker 2: Well, what do you think, Fontane?

71
00:04:28,959 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 4: Just what you think, Colonel for the first time, Olay says,

72
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:32,800
has a lead a contact.

73
00:04:33,199 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 2: What you say?

74
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 4: This woman's name was Major A.

75
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:40,759
Speaker 6: Jobert, Madam and Neette Jobert, and quite a goalto Colonel Johnson.

76
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 4: With her help, maybe we can set up a chain

77
00:04:43,519 --> 00:04:49,639
of way stations, established a shall we say, an overland railroad,

78
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,000
collect our flyers and move them like chessmen right across

79
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:54,000
France to the channel.

80
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:56,399
Speaker 2: How soon can you leave.

81
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 4: Anytime? You say, Colonel Johnson? Anytime?

82
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:00,959
Speaker 5: Oh?

83
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,199
Speaker 4: By the way, Major, how will I be able to

84
00:05:03,199 --> 00:05:07,199
identify myself to Madamoiseeurbert? Did you agree on any cold

85
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,360
word anything?

86
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 3: Yes?

87
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:17,399
Speaker 2: Hey, yeah, a black lace garter.

88
00:05:23,199 --> 00:05:25,199
Speaker 4: I left London a few days later and landed the

89
00:05:25,199 --> 00:05:28,279
next morning on the coast of France. The disguised fishing

90
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:29,759
boat let me off and I made my way to

91
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:35,199
Paris undetected. It was spring nineteen forty four. I was

92
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,319
going to know April in Paris, but not the way

93
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:42,759
any American tourists before the war had known it. The

94
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,879
red dawn was touching the roofs of Paris, the golden

95
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,120
dome of the Pantheon. Most of the city was still

96
00:05:50,199 --> 00:05:57,600
dreaming of other better springtimes before the Germans came. Then

97
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,240
the city started to wake up.

98
00:06:00,079 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 3: Aye, I smacked away?

99
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 4: Why I smack away alone? Bakers were at work through

100
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,920
the windows, sweating the door. The waiters from the cafes

101
00:06:12,959 --> 00:06:15,279
were sweeping into the gutter the cigarette butts that their

102
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,680
customers had dropped under the tables the night before. For

103
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,680
a few minutes it was the Paris my mother had

104
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,759
talked about. And then an official Nazi car turned the corner,

105
00:06:25,759 --> 00:06:35,160
and I knew that everything had changed me. I made

106
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,759
my way to forty six for you, Dancy, where I'd

107
00:06:37,759 --> 00:06:47,920
find Madame Annette Jobert. Madame Jobert, Madame Jobert.

108
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,439
Speaker 7: What are you doing making all that fucket so early

109
00:06:53,519 --> 00:06:54,160
in the morning?

110
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 8: People are still trying to sleep here?

111
00:06:56,879 --> 00:07:00,959
Speaker 4: Why I'm sorry, I'm looking for Madame and Jobert. This

112
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:02,519
is her house, isn't it?

113
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 7: We it this her house?

114
00:07:05,519 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 4: Did you see her go out this morning?

115
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 2: Do you think I.

116
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 9: Have nothing better to do than keep an account of

117
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,759
her comings and goings. But I did not see her

118
00:07:13,839 --> 00:07:15,879
go out this morning, and I have not seen her

119
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:17,199
go out any morning.

120
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 8: For a week.

121
00:07:17,959 --> 00:07:19,839
Speaker 4: Just moved, moved.

122
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,279
Speaker 2: If you take the trouble to knock your city windows.

123
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 4: Or boarded up, madam, madam, please, I've got to locate her.

124
00:07:31,439 --> 00:07:33,040
I'm her nephew.

125
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 8: Ask how good friends? The Germans?

126
00:07:35,759 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 7: Where she is good to the is stuffle?

127
00:07:38,959 --> 00:07:45,439
Speaker 4: Well wait a minute, please, I was up applying there.

128
00:07:46,639 --> 00:07:48,759
I had come to parents because I had a contact.

129
00:07:49,920 --> 00:08:00,240
Now the contact was gone.

130
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 10: There you are, Monsieur MERSI the first one in that

131
00:08:06,279 --> 00:08:10,879
cafe this morning. I remember other springs was always crowded

132
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:11,680
at this time.

133
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 4: What is it for, Sieur? Do you not feel way

134
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:20,240
something wrong? No? No, not not wrong exactly. It's just

135
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,680
that I came to Paris to see my aunt. It

136
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,199
seems she's moved and left no forwarding address.

137
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 10: But there is always one way to find her away.

138
00:08:32,159 --> 00:08:34,039
Speaker 4: What is it? You're the only to go to the

139
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:40,720
Gestapo that they will do? You go to the Gestapo

140
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:45,159
and ask sure? Why not? Always? This was in particular

141
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,320
who helped us? As long as we got the help,

142
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,600
I was sure Colonel Johnson wouldn't object to by letting

143
00:08:51,600 --> 00:09:04,480
even the Gestapo give us a hand. I beg your pardon.

144
00:09:04,519 --> 00:09:05,919
Speaker 11: I can't see them on the phone.

145
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,279
Speaker 4: Wait a minute, I'm sorry.

146
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:13,639
Speaker 11: Yeah, coming album blacklish at.

147
00:09:14,799 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 3: Coming on.

148
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 7: Now?

149
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:18,080
Speaker 11: What is it around?

150
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,919
Speaker 4: I would like some information, that kind of information. I

151
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,000
arrived from south of France this morning. I came to

152
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,519
visit my aunt. Only I discovered when I got here

153
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:29,440
that she had moved.

154
00:09:29,519 --> 00:09:30,759
Speaker 11: What do you want us to do about it?

155
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 4: Well, I merely request her change of address. I felt

156
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:35,879
certain it would be in the records of the guest

157
00:09:35,879 --> 00:09:38,080
stopping records.

158
00:09:38,279 --> 00:09:40,759
Speaker 11: The address are changeab address of anyone in Paris that's

159
00:09:40,759 --> 00:09:41,559
listed with us.

160
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:46,039
Speaker 4: What's the name of your aunt, Jobert, madam, And that's Jobert.

161
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:48,399
Speaker 11: Let me see your papers?

162
00:09:48,639 --> 00:09:53,759
Speaker 4: Yes, there you are.

163
00:09:53,799 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 11: These papers are heres intrigued me? Have I seen any

164
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:58,080
like them before?

165
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 4: Something wrong with him?

166
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:06,759
Speaker 11: On the contrary, they I figured out extremely accurately. Usually

167
00:10:06,759 --> 00:10:09,320
one thing or another is omitted. I congratulate you on

168
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:14,759
your sighness. Thank you, sergeant, thank you, I commandant. There

169
00:10:14,799 --> 00:10:17,120
is a Frenchman at the front desk who is trying

170
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:21,879
to locate his aunt and madam a natral bear. Yeah,

171
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:26,399
come on, dan him in. Thank you, thank you very much.

172
00:10:26,399 --> 00:10:30,679
Sergeant wait, wait, one another thing. Your suitcase, my suitcase,

173
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,960
and no one is allowed past this desk without having

174
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,519
his luggage or packets checked. Put your suitcase up you

175
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:36,120
an open.

176
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:41,159
Speaker 4: It suitcase was filled with clothing, but there was a

177
00:10:41,159 --> 00:10:44,039
false bottom to it, and in the false bottom was

178
00:10:44,039 --> 00:10:48,480
a short wave radio. If the sergeant accidentally pushed the button,

179
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:49,679
that would reveal the radio.

180
00:10:49,799 --> 00:10:50,399
Speaker 3: That is so slow?

181
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:51,879
Speaker 11: About do you give me that suitcase?

182
00:10:54,759 --> 00:10:55,399
Speaker 2: Why are you having it?

183
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:55,919
Speaker 3: Rocks?

184
00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:09,399
Speaker 4: No? No? Yes, yes, you see just personal articles I see.

185
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 11: Do you think I expected you to walk in to

186
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,759
get Starpo headquarters with a time bomb? I short they've

187
00:11:14,759 --> 00:11:18,679
read on your suit just perhaps that's just the team.

188
00:11:18,759 --> 00:11:19,519
Speaker 4: I must check up.

189
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,559
Speaker 11: A commandan's office. Hat down the whole first door you

190
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:25,519
come to under at.

191
00:11:35,799 --> 00:11:39,879
Speaker 4: You sit down, Sit down, monsieur cigar. The wine soaked

192
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,399
cigars are very good, Thank you, he commandant. I never

193
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,720
resist a good cigar or a pretty girl.

194
00:11:46,519 --> 00:11:49,279
Speaker 3: You wonder perhaps why I am seeing you personally about

195
00:11:49,279 --> 00:11:50,919
this matter of locating you around?

196
00:11:51,639 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 4: Whatever the reason, Commandant, could I'm flattered or not at all?

197
00:11:56,039 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 3: Tell you around for me that I am delighted to

198
00:11:58,360 --> 00:11:59,720
render her his little service.

199
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 4: Fine woman, a delightful woman.

200
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 3: And a clever woman too. She's been most cooperative. Oh,

201
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:10,559
I'm sure she has. Commandant Kurtz is most urgent. That

202
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,039
I find her urgent, how urgent.

203
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 4: I have news for her about my uncle, her brother,

204
00:12:17,279 --> 00:12:19,679
who is very ill in the south of France. Pity

205
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:21,960
it still over me that if she desires a trifle,

206
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,200
I will arrange for the necessary permit. Of course, we

207
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,200
are very kind, not at all, not at all. Hell,

208
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:32,559
let me see. Ah, yeah it is.

209
00:12:32,919 --> 00:12:35,559
Speaker 3: She's boarded up our house at forty six Old dan Sike,

210
00:12:35,639 --> 00:12:38,600
as you know, and moved to another residence twenty kilometers

211
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,399
southwest of Pels in the village of Torri Ferrot.

212
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:46,279
Speaker 4: He here, yeah, right out, exact address. Thank you for

213
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:50,279
your help, her Commandant, I assure you I will never

214
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:58,480
forget it. I took a train to the village of

215
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:03,279
Turiferout way, I kept thinking about Madame Jeanbert. The German

216
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,960
High Command evidently considered her one of the most important collaborationists.

217
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:11,399
We considered her our most important contact with the French underground.

218
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:16,360
She certainly had someone food I hoped it was the Nazis.

219
00:13:16,919 --> 00:13:21,399
Speaker 12: Madame Jiebert is in here, monsieur in the library, Mercy,

220
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:24,600
Monsieur Fontine.

221
00:13:24,159 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 9: Madame, comean, comean, Jessill you may go and close the door. Madame,

222
00:13:32,919 --> 00:13:37,120
come close, No, come closer. Let me have a good

223
00:13:37,159 --> 00:13:41,840
look at you. He yeah, it's quite far enough.

224
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:46,399
Speaker 7: Now. What's all this nonsense about being my nephew.

225
00:13:47,159 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 4: What's the matter, Arvin? Don't you recognize me?

226
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,840
Speaker 7: I've never seen you before in my life.

227
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:58,080
Speaker 4: I have regards for you from friends, friends, Major Norman

228
00:13:58,159 --> 00:14:00,559
Davidson and Lieutenant Johnny Porter.

229
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 7: I've never heard of them.

230
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,519
Speaker 4: You don't remember helping to smuggle them across the channel, Addie, this.

231
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,519
Speaker 7: Is insolence of what are you accusing.

232
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,639
Speaker 4: Me of being an important link in the French underground?

233
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,759
Speaker 9: Nonsince, I know of no underground if there is one

234
00:14:14,799 --> 00:14:18,519
that does not concern me. Now go back and tell

235
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,360
them at Gestapo headquarters that they have made a mistake,

236
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,279
and they'll Commandant courts.

237
00:14:24,399 --> 00:14:26,399
Speaker 7: I am hurt at his suspicions of me.

238
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,679
Speaker 4: What makes you think the Gestapo sent me?

239
00:14:30,559 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 9: Only the Gestapo knows my change of address.

240
00:14:34,519 --> 00:14:35,519
Speaker 4: They were very obliging.

241
00:14:36,399 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 9: They gave it to me, I ask you to leave, monsieur,

242
00:14:40,559 --> 00:14:42,240
I am very busy this afternoon.

243
00:14:44,759 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 4: I believe you lost this, Madame Joubert.

244
00:14:49,279 --> 00:14:51,759
Speaker 7: That luckless garto. Where did you get it?

245
00:14:51,799 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 4: Was given to me by Major Davidson, who says you

246
00:14:54,039 --> 00:14:57,960
mean more of the Yankee team than Joe DiMaggio. He

247
00:14:58,039 --> 00:14:59,759
also told me to give you a great, big kiss.

248
00:14:59,759 --> 00:15:06,679
Speaker 9: But well, bless my heart, bless my heart, indeed you

249
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:07,519
still want me to leave.

250
00:15:08,519 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 7: You are as fresh as all Americans. Sit down, Sit down,

251
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:12,600
thank you.

252
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,279
Speaker 9: So you just walked in and asked bigger stuff for

253
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:19,720
almost your good swine.

254
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 7: Oh I'd like to see their faces if they knew, Oh.

255
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,759
Speaker 4: Come, come, come, Madame Joebert. Is that a way to talk?

256
00:15:26,519 --> 00:15:29,519
They think very highly of you.

257
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 7: Which is just what I want them to think.

258
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,679
Speaker 4: We're the other two pilots now, Madam.

259
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 9: I deposited them in a monastery in the south of Safety,

260
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,879
but I have no way to get them to the channel.

261
00:15:42,159 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 4: Look, Madame Jobert, perhaps you and I can establish a

262
00:15:45,519 --> 00:15:49,759
chain of way stations safe houses across France, and then

263
00:15:49,799 --> 00:15:52,559
the Osays can collect the hundreds of flyers were shut

264
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,799
down and you can send them back to Safety.

265
00:15:54,879 --> 00:15:58,679
Speaker 9: Yes, how could I do that without help, without a

266
00:15:58,720 --> 00:15:59,879
way to contact England.

267
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,919
Speaker 4: I have a radio in the suitcase.

268
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,559
Speaker 9: Very well, in the morning we will drive to the monastery.

269
00:16:08,799 --> 00:16:12,360
The monks their friendly. They would be more than glad.

270
00:16:12,399 --> 00:16:14,200
I am sure to let us use that as a

271
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,320
base to start operations.

272
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,159
Speaker 4: Great, that's wonderful, Madam Jobert.

273
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 7: You had the kiss for me from mid Joe Davidson.

274
00:16:24,279 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 4: Where is it right here? Auntie?

275
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:30,559
Speaker 7: Next see?

276
00:16:31,639 --> 00:16:34,519
Speaker 9: And now, young man, you will oblige me by giving

277
00:16:34,559 --> 00:16:35,799
me back my garter.

278
00:16:42,559 --> 00:16:45,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, she was quite a girl, all right, Madame Jobert.

279
00:16:46,919 --> 00:16:49,480
She gave me a suite of rooms to myself, got

280
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,960
me a chaffeur's uniform, decided my name should be Claude,

281
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,200
and in the morning we set out for the monastery.

282
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 7: Yes, yes, Fontaine a cloud. That is just what we

283
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:03,480
will do.

284
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 4: Yes, oh, says We'll furnish each member of an air

285
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:10,119
crew with detailed escape maps when they are briefed in England,

286
00:17:10,319 --> 00:17:13,039
pinpointing the friendly areas on the root of every mission.

287
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,000
Do you think these safe houses will be difficult to

288
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:17,359
set up?

289
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:17,559
Speaker 5: Oh?

290
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:18,519
Speaker 7: Not too difficult.

291
00:17:18,519 --> 00:17:20,599
Speaker 9: I think I know already of the home of his

292
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:25,359
sympathetic parish priest, a church, school, a farmhouse, and I

293
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,640
have many wealthy friends who will be willing.

294
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 7: I am sure. Why are you slowing down?

295
00:17:31,519 --> 00:17:33,559
Speaker 4: Nazi? God wants me to stop.

296
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 7: Don't worry. I have all the necessary permits.

297
00:17:37,079 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 13: I let me see a permit to travel.

298
00:17:41,519 --> 00:17:46,319
Speaker 9: Eh, you are this is a great inconvenience.

299
00:17:46,799 --> 00:17:49,559
Speaker 7: I will report it to my friend, Commandant.

300
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:56,079
Speaker 13: Courts, Commandant Kurtz. I see you have his personal stamper

301
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,799
on this pass. Where are you headed for, Madame Joubert.

302
00:17:59,759 --> 00:18:01,839
Speaker 7: I have business in the village.

303
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:06,359
Speaker 4: Ah, I would suggest you do not go today.

304
00:18:06,799 --> 00:18:07,119
Speaker 7: Why not?

305
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,599
Speaker 13: There's to be an execution at the square.

306
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,559
Speaker 4: Not very pleasant, but execution.

307
00:18:12,799 --> 00:18:14,079
Speaker 7: What are you talking about?

308
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,599
Speaker 13: We found thirty five tons of arms and materials that

309
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:19,759
were stolen from German supply trains.

310
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 7: Found all that where.

311
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:24,079
Speaker 4: In the monastery.

312
00:18:25,519 --> 00:18:28,359
Speaker 7: The monastery. I cannot believe.

313
00:18:28,039 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 4: That here, but it is true. And today they will

314
00:18:30,519 --> 00:18:32,240
be shot, five.

315
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,440
Speaker 7: Of them, I see Cloud continue.

316
00:18:34,599 --> 00:18:36,119
Speaker 13: You may go if you like, but it will not

317
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:37,000
be very pleasant.

318
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:47,279
Speaker 8: Lord continue, madam.

319
00:18:47,279 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 7: So they discovered the supplies in the monastery.

320
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,799
Speaker 4: What about the two American flyers you had hidden there?

321
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,559
Did they discover them too? Are they among the five.

322
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,079
Speaker 7: Quickly, drive quickly cloud.

323
00:19:09,079 --> 00:19:11,559
Speaker 4: We reached the square, parked the car and got out.

324
00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,640
The people were huddled in little whispering groups. At the

325
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,240
far end of the square stood the monastery, and lined

326
00:19:18,319 --> 00:19:21,640
up at the wall were five monks, their heads lowered,

327
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:26,440
their hands fingering the crosses around their necks. Facing them

328
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:30,440
was a Nazi firing squad. Madame Joelbert grabbed my arm.

329
00:19:31,079 --> 00:19:33,319
What the want to do? I don't think there's anything

330
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:37,839
we can do. Let this be a lesson to your people.

331
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,640
Speaker 3: Off this village. This is what happens to those who

332
00:19:41,759 --> 00:19:42,960
five against us.

333
00:19:44,279 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 6: These five will be shot, the.

334
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 3: Other monks and the monastery will be sent to Germany.

335
00:19:51,759 --> 00:19:52,880
Speaker 5: You understand.

336
00:19:54,079 --> 00:19:57,559
Speaker 3: Heke a good look, lod you're lessened.

337
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 7: By wat.

338
00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:09,319
Speaker 1: Ah ah.

339
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:26,319
Speaker 4: Madame Jobert and I went back to the car. But

340
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,880
Madame Jobert, if you drive back yourself, what will the

341
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:30,279
guards say who stopped us before?

342
00:20:30,519 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 7: I am an excellent liar.

343
00:20:32,559 --> 00:20:34,519
Speaker 9: I will simply tell him I went to see a

344
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,720
sick relative and left you there to help. I must

345
00:20:37,839 --> 00:20:41,039
drive back immediately, As I told you, I am giving

346
00:20:41,039 --> 00:20:45,039
a birthday party for commandow Courts. I hope he does

347
00:20:45,079 --> 00:20:48,359
not live to see his next. No, you go to

348
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,400
the convent. It is only a few kilometers from here.

349
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 7: You know what to do.

350
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:59,559
Speaker 4: Yes, I know what to do. Madame Jobert, what do

351
00:20:59,599 --> 00:21:01,519
you think one of those two pilots who were hidden

352
00:21:01,519 --> 00:21:03,359
in the monastery, they.

353
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,599
Speaker 7: Were probably found and killed.

354
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:11,079
Speaker 9: But Lieutenant Fontane, we must go on with our plans.

355
00:21:11,559 --> 00:21:16,759
Some have been killed, lu but many gunn be saved.

356
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 4: I said good bye to her. She drove away. The

357
00:21:24,319 --> 00:21:27,599
Convent of our Sacred Lady was within walking distance. When

358
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,119
I reached the gate, I saw an avenue of acacia

359
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:34,119
trees leading to the great ornate iron door. The center

360
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:38,640
panel formed the figure of the Virgin Mary. It was

361
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:43,279
really spring in these gardens, a peaceful sanctuary in a

362
00:21:43,319 --> 00:21:44,319
war ridden world.

363
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 7: What is your wish?

364
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 4: I would like to see the Mother Superior.

365
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:55,519
Speaker 7: Follow me.

366
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 4: I followed the nun through the spacious hall. It was

367
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:08,160
part vestry, part repository of art objects. The walls were

368
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,960
hung with darkened old paintings of the Holy Family in

369
00:22:12,039 --> 00:22:15,920
glass chests. Along the vestry, religious utensils of gold and

370
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:17,200
silver had been stored.

371
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 7: This is the officer, Mother Angeline.

372
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:36,839
Speaker 12: Come so you want me to let you use the

373
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,880
convent of our sacred lady as a base for your

374
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:41,799
underground operations.

375
00:22:42,279 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 4: Mother Anjeline, if you know the risk yourself and refuse.

376
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:48,920
I can't find it in my heart to blame you,

377
00:22:49,559 --> 00:22:52,599
but if you agree, I want you to know first

378
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:57,000
just what those risks are. Tell me, my son, I've

379
00:22:57,079 --> 00:23:00,319
just come from the village. The monastery there was rated

380
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,359
last night. With my own eyes, I saw five of

381
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:07,000
the monks shut. The others were hauled away by the Nazis.

382
00:23:07,519 --> 00:23:11,240
Only God knows where I know about that I heard

383
00:23:11,319 --> 00:23:15,160
this morning. If this convent is used as a hideout

384
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,319
and the short wave radio is hidden here, can you

385
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,559
imagine what the Germans would do if they found out?

386
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,200
You would expect no better treatment than the monks received.

387
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,759
Speaker 12: I thank you for telling me this. You are right,

388
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:32,759
there's a great risk. I have many under my care here.

389
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,319
They depend on my wisdom to do the right thing.

390
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,920
Speaker 4: Of course, you have the other sisters to consider.

391
00:23:41,599 --> 00:23:44,640
Speaker 12: You came here today to convince me of your cause.

392
00:23:45,559 --> 00:23:47,680
I'm afraid I must disappoint you.

393
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:52,039
Speaker 4: What's that you see? I what's the matter?

394
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,759
Speaker 12: A German armored car? I can see it from the

395
00:23:56,799 --> 00:24:01,759
window coming here. I'm afraid so it is the first

396
00:24:01,799 --> 00:24:06,000
time we have been raided. I am not looking forward

397
00:24:06,079 --> 00:24:09,000
to them muddy boots in this place of God.

398
00:24:09,319 --> 00:24:11,799
Speaker 4: They'll find me, Mother Angeline. What can I do? Where

399
00:24:11,799 --> 00:24:13,599
can I hide?

400
00:24:15,079 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 7: They are at the door you rang for me, my mayor.

401
00:24:20,799 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 12: Yes, Sister Theresa, give my friend one of the sisters robes,

402
00:24:26,599 --> 00:24:29,720
one long enough to cover him, and a hood.

403
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 7: Women here the other sisters are They already in the chapel.

404
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,640
Women here, they have thirty the afternoon aderation.

405
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 12: See that my friend joins them in prayer. Then then

406
00:24:43,279 --> 00:24:44,480
open the main door.

407
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,079
Speaker 7: We have visited us.

408
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 4: I put a mumsch over my suit and went with

409
00:24:54,759 --> 00:24:58,119
Sister Teresa to the chapel. I knelt with the others.

410
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,519
About twenty b divided by a middle aisle provided seats

411
00:25:02,559 --> 00:25:05,519
for the worshippers. At the far end of the room

412
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:09,720
was a high pulpit. Many of the kneeling prayed with

413
00:25:09,839 --> 00:25:14,799
arms stretched out, symbolizing the form of the cross. The

414
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,799
sister next to me clasped her hands and on her

415
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,680
ring finger was the silver emblem of a bride of Christ.

416
00:25:22,079 --> 00:25:26,680
They prayed almost silently. Hers were the only words I heard.

417
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 14: Our maternal power of the universe, Mother of divine grace.

418
00:25:34,279 --> 00:25:43,279
Pray for us, our wisest virgin, our kindly virgin. Pray

419
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:49,279
for us, Pray for the sick world.

420
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:59,319
Speaker 12: Good sisters, these soldiers wished to serve the chapel. I

421
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,160
must bow to their wishes and ask you to file

422
00:26:02,279 --> 00:26:03,440
back to your seads.

423
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 7: Leave now quickly and quietly. Please.

424
00:26:11,319 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 4: My head lowered, the hood covering my face. I got

425
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:18,160
into the line of the sisters. I bent my knees

426
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,960
slightly so that the robes would cover the chaffeur's boots

427
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,799
I was wearing. I lowered my head even more as

428
00:26:23,799 --> 00:26:26,000
I passed the es as Hupman, who was standing with

429
00:26:26,039 --> 00:26:28,160
his men next to the Mother Superior at the door.

430
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:31,759
Speaker 6: Oh good, the necessity of disturbing your prayer, mil Angeline.

431
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,119
And after the unfortunate incident in the monastery last night,

432
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:36,359
I feel it is necessary.

433
00:26:37,079 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 12: You may search this convent from top to bottom, as

434
00:26:41,039 --> 00:26:45,000
you are already doing. You will find nothing in this

435
00:26:45,039 --> 00:26:47,079
house of God to interest you.

436
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 7: I'm sure. Hurry, sisters, hurry back to yourselves.

437
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:03,799
Speaker 4: They're really gone. Mother Arjeline.

438
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 7: Of course they found nothing here.

439
00:27:07,839 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 12: You can take that rope off now you look uncomfortably

440
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:11,440
in it.

441
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:13,359
Speaker 4: Thank you for protecting me.

442
00:27:14,039 --> 00:27:17,119
Speaker 7: I believe now, but we have not finished our condoxation.

443
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:20,079
Speaker 4: Mother Arjeline, you told me I could not convince you

444
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,599
about our cause you said you'd have to disappoint me.

445
00:27:23,279 --> 00:27:24,480
I took that as your answer.

446
00:27:24,599 --> 00:27:28,599
Speaker 7: Let me consult two of the other sisters. First. Wait,

447
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:32,319
we am a mayor.

448
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,799
Speaker 12: Our two sisters those in the sacristy. Send them here, please,

449
00:27:37,839 --> 00:27:39,000
Sister Celeste.

450
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:45,880
Speaker 4: A few minutes later, Sister Celeste returned, followed by the

451
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:49,920
two other nuns. Their arms folded and heads lowered, they

452
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:53,960
shuffled into the room, and then all of a sudden,

453
00:27:54,039 --> 00:27:57,319
I noticed broad towed army boots protruding beneath the long

454
00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:02,240
black dresses. One of the heads raised, and I saw

455
00:28:02,319 --> 00:28:09,400
that he needed a shave. Mother Argerlie, I don't understand

456
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:09,920
these men.

457
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:13,559
Speaker 12: They are American pilot brought here yesterday when the monks

458
00:28:13,599 --> 00:28:18,960
received underground information that the monastery would be raided. Major Kerstein,

459
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:24,079
Captain Lewis, this is Lieutenant Fontane of the oss Osa.

460
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 15: Said it's great if you got away of getting it's

461
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,720
out of France. Lieutennant, Yeah, say what happened to Madame Jiobert?

462
00:28:28,839 --> 00:28:33,559
She all right, yeah, yeah, she's all right, Mother, Arjeline.

463
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:35,680
You led me to believe I wouldn't be able to

464
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:36,920
convince you of our cause.

465
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:38,079
Speaker 4: Of course, not.

466
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,839
Speaker 7: Son, how could you, since I was already convinced.

467
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,319
Speaker 4: The convent of our Sacred Lady was the first link

468
00:28:49,319 --> 00:28:51,359
in a chain of safe houses that was forged within

469
00:28:51,359 --> 00:28:54,599
a couple of months under Madame Jolbert's leadership. We moved

470
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,440
Major Kerstein and Captain Lewis along that chain until they

471
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,799
reached the coast of France. They waited hidden in a

472
00:28:59,799 --> 00:29:02,839
farmer's barn while I established contact with headquarters in London.

473
00:29:04,319 --> 00:29:08,279
Agent Fontaine to OSS headquarters in London. Overground railroad, established

474
00:29:08,359 --> 00:29:11,160
train on the tracks, passengers ready to leave and waiting

475
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,559
pick them up and make room for more to come.

476
00:29:19,039 --> 00:29:19,839
More did come.

477
00:29:20,319 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 3: Over two thousand more Yemen who were shot down and

478
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:26,559
occupied France rode the overground railroad established by Lieutenant Claude

479
00:29:26,559 --> 00:29:30,000
Fontaine to safety. Thus, once again, the report of another

480
00:29:30,039 --> 00:29:32,000
OSS agent closed.

481
00:29:31,519 --> 00:29:34,319
Speaker 2: With the words mission accomplished.

482
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,359
Speaker 3: Listen again next week for another true adventure from the

483
00:29:37,359 --> 00:29:38,960
files of the OSS on.

484
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 2: Cloak and Dagger.

485
00:29:50,319 --> 00:29:53,359
Speaker 5: Heard him Tonight's Clock and Dagger Adventures. Lieutenant Fontaine was

486
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:58,039
less Romaine Madame Jobert, Brianna Raeburn and Mother Angeline Lily Valente.

487
00:29:58,279 --> 00:30:00,599
The script was written by Wonderfred Rolf and Jack Gordon.

488
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,440
The music was under the direction of John Guard, sound

489
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:07,720
effects by John Powers and Many Siegel. Today's OSS Adventure

490
00:30:07,759 --> 00:30:10,079
was based on the book Cloaking Dagger by Corey Ford

491
00:30:10,079 --> 00:30:11,079
and Alistair McBain.

492
00:30:11,839 --> 00:30:13,599
Speaker 2: This program was produced by Lewis G.

493
00:30:13,799 --> 00:30:14,119
Speaker 6: Conley.

494
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 4: The National Broadcasting Company extends its hottiest congratulations to Station

495
00:30:22,599 --> 00:30:24,119
wb EM Buffalo.

496
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 1: Welcome back. So our man strolled into GESTAPO headquarters with

497
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:37,559
a suitcase containing his shortwave radio. And this is not

498
00:30:37,839 --> 00:30:42,240
the first time in this series that in OSS operative

499
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:47,799
has escaped because he did something very risky and ill advised,

500
00:30:48,279 --> 00:30:52,400
but the Axes didn't suspect it because such a mistake

501
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:57,039
would be so ridiculous, it was unthinkable. And it's important

502
00:30:57,079 --> 00:31:00,640
once again to remember that the OSS was not made

503
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:06,359
up primarily of professional spies. These were mostly people who

504
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:10,200
came from civilian life and other professions who were given

505
00:31:10,319 --> 00:31:14,119
months of training, and certainly that training helped, but it

506
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:18,480
can provide the sort of instinctive behaviors and approaches we

507
00:31:18,559 --> 00:31:24,079
associate with today's professional espionage class. I think that also

508
00:31:24,279 --> 00:31:28,880
played into how he approached setting up the overground railroad,

509
00:31:30,039 --> 00:31:33,039
because I don't think that if you were dealing with

510
00:31:33,079 --> 00:31:36,119
say the CIA or something like that, that they would

511
00:31:36,119 --> 00:31:39,759
have near the hesitation he had. But the narration gives

512
00:31:39,799 --> 00:31:44,519
you a sense of how reluctant he was about putting

513
00:31:44,559 --> 00:31:48,039
these women in danger and the reverence he felt for

514
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:53,119
that place, but ultimately the decision had already been made.

515
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:58,920
The episode highlights once again the sort of unflinching courage

516
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:06,079
by the civilian resistance groups in these Nazi occupied countries

517
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,039
and the risk they were willing to take to be

518
00:32:09,119 --> 00:32:14,079
sure that freedom prevailed. Listener comments and feedback, and we

519
00:32:14,319 --> 00:32:18,440
have a couple of comments on the Norwegian incident over

520
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:24,279
on YouTube. A simple thanks Adam, I enjoyed it from Chris,

521
00:32:24,359 --> 00:32:27,440
and a thank you from Mark, and also on our

522
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:32,240
listener survey, Robin Connecticut rites Kloakin Dagger is my new

523
00:32:32,279 --> 00:32:35,200
favorite show. Well, thanks so much, and I appreciate that.

524
00:32:35,599 --> 00:32:39,920
And I've really been delighted at the positive reaction we've

525
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,799
had to this series. Very different than most things we've done,

526
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,079
but people have really embraced it and it's been a

527
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,599
lot to play it for you and look forward to

528
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:53,880
a few more weeks. All right, well, now it is

529
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:59,079
time to thank our Patreon supporter of the day and
