nineteen fifty, here is the Black Radio.

15
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,879
Speaker 2: Are you willing to undertake a dangerous mission behind the

16
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:21,159
enemy lines knowing you may never return alive? What you

17
00:01:21,159 --> 00:01:23,760
have just heard is the question asked during the war

18
00:01:23,879 --> 00:01:27,959
to agents of the OSS ordinary citizens who to this

19
00:01:28,159 --> 00:01:50,599
question answered yes. This is Cloak and Dagger, Black.

20
00:01:50,359 --> 00:01:56,239
Speaker 3: Warfare, espionage, international intrigue, These are the weapons of the OSS.

21
00:01:57,079 --> 00:02:01,439
Today's story, the Black Radio concerns an SS agent who

22
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,200
broadcast a light propaganda from behind the enemy lines, and

23
00:02:05,319 --> 00:02:09,479
is suggested by actual incidents recorded in the Washington files

24
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:15,199
of the Office of Strategic Services, A story that can

25
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:16,800
now be told.

26
00:02:19,599 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 4: It was one of those quiet days.

27
00:02:22,439 --> 00:02:24,879
Speaker 5: The sun was splashing into the windows, and I was

28
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:29,680
marking time until lunch in the cafeteria and a date

29
00:02:29,719 --> 00:02:33,639
I had with a regulated secretary. There were just the

30
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,240
two of us in the big gadget room of the

31
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:40,159
OSS in Washington, just me and Hank Martin, And all

32
00:02:40,159 --> 00:02:41,639
of a sudden, Hank grabbed my arm.

33
00:02:41,759 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 4: Market down, air rate up.

34
00:02:47,439 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 5: Okay, okay, well the idea.

35
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,439
Speaker 6: Oh I wish I had a camera just then?

36
00:02:52,719 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 4: How did you look? Scare?

37
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,039
Speaker 5: What was that thing you just thrown aways basket?

38
00:02:56,479 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 6: Just a little noise maker? Great if you get in

39
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,479
a tight spot. All right, right, Look, let's start from

40
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:01,919
the beginning.

41
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 4: Huh. How does it work? Well?

42
00:03:03,159 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 6: Like you see, it's not very big, just about the

43
00:03:06,159 --> 00:03:08,719
size of a lemon. Easy to slip into your pocket.

44
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:10,879
All you do is pull out the cap and throw

45
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:11,439
it and when.

46
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 5: It explodes, pow.

47
00:03:13,719 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 4: We call it the Heady Lamar.

48
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 2: Major Longha, I have a job for you. When our

49
00:03:26,719 --> 00:03:30,080
army has crossed the Rhine into Germany, the Fribourg will

50
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:34,080
become a strategic city. The less resistance we get from

51
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,159
the people when we make that advance, the less lives

52
00:03:37,199 --> 00:03:40,080
will be lost. Up to date, we have no report

53
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,960
of any underground or partisan movement there.

54
00:03:43,439 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 5: And the OSS wants me to go in there with

55
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:46,360
a black radio and soften them up.

56
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 4: Is that it's right?

57
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 2: Cut in on the Nazi local stations broadcast the information

58
00:03:51,759 --> 00:03:55,680
we want them to get. Another of our agents infiltrated

59
00:03:55,759 --> 00:03:58,599
that area over three months ago to get acquainted with

60
00:03:58,639 --> 00:04:01,639
the city and locate utable hiding places for the radio.

61
00:04:02,159 --> 00:04:03,719
Speaker 4: Of course, her it will have to be moved every

62
00:04:03,719 --> 00:04:04,360
time we use it.

63
00:04:04,719 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 2: That's right now. We haven't heard from our agents since

64
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,840
she was sent in. We didn't want her to run

65
00:04:10,879 --> 00:04:13,520
the risk of trying to contact DOT.

66
00:04:14,199 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 4: Did you say she girl?

67
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,519
Speaker 2: That's right? Have you any objection to working with a woman?

68
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 4: Oh? No, I mean no.

69
00:04:29,319 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 5: Her name was Lucille, The colonel said. I wondered if

70
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:38,000
she was anything like the Redhead as Lucille. Nobody had

71
00:04:38,079 --> 00:04:43,040
heard from her for months, Maybe she'd been caught. Maybe

72
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:44,879
the Nazis had twisted out of her the reason she'd

73
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:45,480
been sent.

74
00:04:45,319 --> 00:04:45,879
Speaker 4: To fry Boy.

75
00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:51,279
Speaker 5: Maybe maybe I'd have a reception committee of Germans waiting

76
00:04:51,319 --> 00:04:51,600
for me.

77
00:04:52,959 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 4: It gave me something to think about.

78
00:04:54,399 --> 00:04:56,639
Speaker 5: On the plane flying over the Black Forest in Germany

79
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,959
a few weeks later, here's your anveal point straight.

80
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:05,399
Speaker 4: Ahead, straight ahead and straight down, you mean running in? Ready, ready, go,

81
00:05:05,399 --> 00:05:05,839
good luck.

82
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 5: I tossed the radio at first, then I jumped after it.

83
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,600
No matter how many times I jumped, that was always

84
00:05:12,639 --> 00:05:17,519
the first time. The feeling of falling, sick, feeling like

85
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,000
a dream. I came to with a jaunty a sharp

86
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,160
pain across my thighs from the pull of the strap

87
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:24,240
and the crack of the chute.

88
00:05:26,319 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 4: Then there all.

89
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:33,160
Speaker 5: Around me, I looked down on a black forest that

90
00:05:33,319 --> 00:05:34,480
was blacker than ever at.

91
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,639
Speaker 4: Four hundred four o'clock in the morning.

92
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 5: There were no Germans waiting, but no Lucio even there

93
00:05:48,199 --> 00:05:52,120
was nothing but a foreign country. And up above the

94
00:05:52,199 --> 00:05:53,759
plane faded away.

95
00:05:55,120 --> 00:06:00,199
Speaker 4: And it was gone, and I was alone.

96
00:06:04,199 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 5: The radio had floated to earth about fifty feet away.

97
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,000
I checked, I made sure it was all right. Buried

98
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:13,879
my parachute and wondered what to do next. There was

99
00:06:13,879 --> 00:06:16,600
a milk wagon coming down the road. I could hear

100
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,759
the milk cans swaying with the movement of the curt

101
00:06:19,759 --> 00:06:22,600
I could see a shadowy figure holding the reins. I

102
00:06:22,639 --> 00:06:25,439
dragged the radio behind a clump of bushes, and then

103
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:33,600
I waited for the wagon to pass. For a moment,

104
00:06:33,639 --> 00:06:38,879
I didn't recognize the saw, and then all of a sudden,

105
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:40,800
the words wrote themselves in my head.

106
00:06:42,439 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 4: Come away with me, Lucille in my merry old smoke, Gusil, Lucille.

107
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 7: I'm sorry I was lead Mazio linge during a soldier

108
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,720
I know stopped to talk. I couldn't break away without

109
00:06:58,759 --> 00:07:01,519
being impolite. Just as long as she got here, Harry Major,

110
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,040
Let's go. Yes, I was ever so glad to see

111
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:08,480
anyone in my life. Gee, but I didn't quite expect to.

112
00:07:08,519 --> 00:07:09,759
Speaker 4: Need knock me.

113
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 8: What did you think i'd be like?

114
00:07:12,079 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 4: Now? Oh?

115
00:07:12,959 --> 00:07:18,959
Speaker 8: I ah, come made well. I had no idea, no

116
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:19,519
doubt you.

117
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 7: Pictured a slim, young thing whould interest your intrigue. I've

118
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,600
been either slim nor young for longer than i'd like

119
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:28,240
to remember.

120
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 4: Tell me what did you do before the world.

121
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 7: Taught history in grade school. Now I'm helping to make it.

122
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 8: It's a good feeling.

123
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 7: Until you consider the possibility of getting caught.

124
00:07:40,439 --> 00:07:42,199
Speaker 4: We've got to make sure we don't get caught.

125
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 8: There is always that possibility.

126
00:07:44,199 --> 00:07:48,639
Speaker 7: Major accepted, and it's much easier to take it if

127
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:49,120
it comes.

128
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, who is it, may I? Yeah? Come in? Well,

129
00:08:03,319 --> 00:08:03,839
what do you want?

130
00:08:04,399 --> 00:08:06,639
Speaker 9: It's your neighbor across the hall. I'm surely to make

131
00:08:06,639 --> 00:08:09,000
your acquaintance. My name is Gruber.

132
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 4: Am I disturbing you? Helena? Well you know my name.

133
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,639
Speaker 9: I see as a as a poor old widower alone

134
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,720
in this world, with very few interests outside of the

135
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:21,879
future of the fatherland.

136
00:08:21,879 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 4: It is I make it my business to know everyone

137
00:08:25,079 --> 00:08:26,000
in this roomy house.

138
00:08:26,279 --> 00:08:29,959
Speaker 9: Do you You are right in Fribo only a few

139
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:30,360
days ago?

140
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:31,399
Speaker 4: Nine, that's right.

141
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 9: You have a medical discharge from the army. You are wounded.

142
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:36,200
It ANSI all.

143
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,639
Speaker 4: Is there anything about me you don't know?

144
00:08:41,159 --> 00:08:44,279
Speaker 9: Do not take offense my friend. I asked the landlady

145
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,159
about you. It was she who told me your information

146
00:08:47,279 --> 00:08:49,360
is right here, grouper. I was wounded.

147
00:08:49,519 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 5: I spent two months in the hospital and I'd like

148
00:08:52,279 --> 00:08:53,039
to be left alone.

149
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 9: Yeah, you are a bit yeah, specifically life will not

150
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,240
be easy, but you must mix with people, make friends,

151
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,440
don't keep too much to yourself.

152
00:09:06,399 --> 00:09:11,159
Speaker 4: I wrote with me this bottle of schnapps and two

153
00:09:11,279 --> 00:09:17,519
small classes. Will you not join me? Well, uh yes,

154
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:22,600
yea to the future, Helena, I'll drink to that.

155
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,799
Speaker 5: There was something about the old wind bag who rented

156
00:09:30,799 --> 00:09:32,799
the room next door to me on the third floor that.

157
00:09:32,759 --> 00:09:35,759
Speaker 4: I didn't like. I couldn't put my finger on it.

158
00:09:36,919 --> 00:09:40,360
Maybe it was the way his eyes like pattern leather buttons,

159
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,840
kept darting around the road. Kay.

160
00:09:44,879 --> 00:09:48,919
Speaker 9: Good schnapps, n yeah, very good. Not like we used

161
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,639
to get before the war. Of course, I'm not complaining.

162
00:09:52,639 --> 00:09:56,559
It's such a little sacrifice to make for the right, yes,

163
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,320
of course.

164
00:09:58,759 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 4: Yeah.

165
00:09:59,799 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 9: What you're planning to do here in Friburg, Helana, Well,

166
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,639
I have my craft card as a union motion picture Projections.

167
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,759
Speaker 5: I worked in a film house in Berlin before the

168
00:10:09,799 --> 00:10:13,279
war and was hoping to find a position here.

169
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:17,519
Speaker 9: You've had no success yet, No, no yet.

170
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 4: The motion picture house a block from the mining university.

171
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,240
Have you tried there? Well? No, I haven't do to

172
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:24,679
try it.

173
00:10:24,799 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 9: Tell the manager, yes, Schmidt, but you are a friend

174
00:10:26,879 --> 00:10:30,600
of mine. He's always complaining to me about being short

175
00:10:30,639 --> 00:10:34,639
of help. That also is just a little sacrifice to

176
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,840
make for the right, of course, of course.

177
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:43,399
Speaker 5: Uh, I'll go there tomorrow. Oh tell me, what is

178
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,360
your business? I?

179
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:50,639
Speaker 4: Oh, I am a clerk, A clerk in the administration

180
00:10:50,759 --> 00:11:03,000
building of Gestapo headquarters, mosh Naps. I may not have

181
00:11:03,159 --> 00:11:05,360
liked the old wind bag, but I took his lead anyway.

182
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,360
Speaker 5: I went to the movie house near the university and

183
00:11:08,399 --> 00:11:11,559
got myself a job there on a day shift, and

184
00:11:11,639 --> 00:11:15,159
I counted the hours until the Thursday, when i'd meet

185
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:20,879
Lucille at the deserted car barn we'd agreed on. On Wednesday,

186
00:11:20,919 --> 00:11:22,759
I was in the projection room running a half hour

187
00:11:22,799 --> 00:11:25,480
news reel, most of which was a close up with

188
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:26,879
Hitler making a speech.

189
00:11:26,639 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 4: In Berlin and pulling at the mouth.

190
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 5: I looked down over the heads of the audience, wondered

191
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,559
if all of them were as enthusiastic about the fure

192
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,759
as they pretended to be. Wondered how much it would

193
00:11:38,799 --> 00:11:42,919
take to push them into starting their own underground. Wondered

194
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,120
how many of them would be listening to their radio

195
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,360
the next month listening to me.

196
00:11:48,799 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 4: How long.

197
00:11:51,039 --> 00:11:53,399
Speaker 10: I came to tell you what. I'll tend that because

198
00:11:55,039 --> 00:11:58,039
I came to tell you only have tomorrow afternoon off

199
00:11:58,919 --> 00:12:02,639
tomorrow afternoon, but I don't understand this call. I will

200
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:04,679
want to you tomorrow night and stay hope. But tomorrow

201
00:12:04,759 --> 00:12:07,200
night it is impossible, I mean longer. You have to

202
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,440
go drop here for ask you to take the night shift.

203
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:10,960
This once, I see no need for argument.

204
00:12:11,039 --> 00:12:12,799
Speaker 4: Oh but you see, it's what you have.

205
00:12:12,799 --> 00:12:14,919
Speaker 10: To do that important that it cannot be postponed.

206
00:12:16,799 --> 00:12:26,399
Speaker 4: Nine schmid, that's so important. I'll be here the next night.

207
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 5: At twenty minutes past ten, the feature film went off.

208
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,799
I set the machine. The news reel would run by

209
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:33,879
itself for half an.

210
00:12:33,759 --> 00:12:35,200
Speaker 4: Hour, no more.

211
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,039
Speaker 5: I didn't give me much time before the reel would

212
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,320
run out, just a half hour to get to the

213
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:41,759
car run broadcast.

214
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,840
Speaker 4: We'll get back now.

215
00:12:44,879 --> 00:12:47,639
Speaker 5: That's it to see you seven hundred and thirty kilo cycles.

216
00:12:47,639 --> 00:12:48,960
But I can't seem to get reception.

217
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 8: Ah, they are signing off.

218
00:12:53,759 --> 00:12:58,279
Speaker 5: This is Mark starts on car day, signing off until

219
00:12:58,320 --> 00:12:59,120
tomorrow morning.

220
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:04,399
Speaker 4: There we go, your fingers crossed. Don't turn off your radios.

221
00:13:04,519 --> 00:13:06,799
People of Freybourg. This is for you.

222
00:13:08,279 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 5: I am your voice of freedom, bringing you news as

223
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:15,399
it actually exists, not as the propaganda ministry would like

224
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:16,000
you to believe.

225
00:13:16,519 --> 00:13:17,759
Speaker 4: That's good, wonderful.

226
00:13:17,799 --> 00:13:20,440
Speaker 5: It wasn't fifty sons of Friburg who died at the

227
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:26,360
Anzio beach had but five hundred. You mothers, wives, sweethearts,

228
00:13:26,399 --> 00:13:30,000
who have not heard from your men. You think the

229
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:34,919
males are slow? Is that why you haven't received letters?

230
00:13:35,799 --> 00:13:42,440
Your men will never write again. They were killed at Anzio. Women,

231
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,600
They are taking your men away. What do you have

232
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:56,679
for compensation? You have no food, your code, and the

233
00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:00,559
political leaders want to sacrifice everything but themselves. Haven't you

234
00:14:00,759 --> 00:14:01,759
sacrificed enough?

235
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 4: Marck it leek.

236
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 5: It's all right, and now until another time soon, this

237
00:14:10,279 --> 00:14:12,559
is the voice of freedom.

238
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 4: Good night. I will not say hyle Hitler. I say instead,

239
00:14:19,399 --> 00:14:20,600
God be with you.

240
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,399
Speaker 8: The first of many, God be with us both.

241
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 4: We dismantled the radio.

242
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 5: I lifted it into the back of the notewag and

243
00:14:34,879 --> 00:14:36,519
ran as fast as I could back to the theater

244
00:14:37,039 --> 00:14:37,960
and slid in through.

245
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 4: The side door. And then I heard it, Hey, longa longa,

246
00:14:43,159 --> 00:14:43,720
Where where are you?

247
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 5: He Schmidt? Well?

248
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,159
Speaker 10: What business had you to leave the protection during the

249
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,679
usual of the fure. I only hope your peace, you

250
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,879
have our league top up in the middle of his speech, Well.

251
00:14:53,759 --> 00:14:54,919
Speaker 5: Where where was I?

252
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 4: I was in the washroom.

253
00:14:57,799 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 8: I was not going up to see.

254
00:14:59,039 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 4: If you're poor and a sleep, how do lots go?

255
00:15:00,799 --> 00:15:01,960
Pickure machine? Quickly up?

256
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:03,759
Speaker 5: When when did this happen?

257
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 4: Happened just a minute before, not dearly.

258
00:15:05,519 --> 00:15:07,799
Speaker 10: If you wonder you couldn't heal the disturbance from the mushroom,

259
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:08,600
come up there.

260
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I ran up the stairs to the

261
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:14,919
projection room.

262
00:15:15,799 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 4: God must have been with me that first night.

263
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,879
Speaker 5: If the machine had broken down five minutes earlier, Schmidt

264
00:15:20,879 --> 00:15:31,200
would have known I'd left the theater. The next week,

265
00:15:31,639 --> 00:15:34,440
and the next and the next we were on the area.

266
00:15:35,639 --> 00:15:38,399
We moved the radio to a deserted warehouse, to a

267
00:15:38,519 --> 00:15:41,039
cave in the black forest, to a barn on the

268
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,360
outskirts of time. As a voice of freedom, I told

269
00:15:44,399 --> 00:15:47,240
the people of Fryborg, you are fighting a lost cause.

270
00:15:49,399 --> 00:15:51,960
The losses of the Luftwaffer are seventy five percent higher

271
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:58,440
than reported resistance in all German occupied territory is growing stronger.

272
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:08,679
People in the city but the same. We're as respectful

273
00:16:08,679 --> 00:16:10,919
as ever to the Nazi soldiers that walked the streets.

274
00:16:12,559 --> 00:16:14,360
None of them showed, by so much as a look

275
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:18,799
or a word, that they ever heard those broadcasts. And

276
00:16:18,879 --> 00:16:20,720
then I received my first indication.

277
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,799
Speaker 4: I saw you through the window of the coffee shop. Here, Lana,

278
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:29,480
May I join you at your table if you'd like? So?

279
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:33,360
Have you been listening to your radio lately? I have

280
00:16:33,519 --> 00:16:34,120
no radio.

281
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 9: If you get one, then I advise you not to

282
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:42,159
listen to Reichstatsune every day. Oh why, because the Gestapo

283
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,600
will arrest anyone caught listening to the man who calls

284
00:16:45,679 --> 00:16:47,720
himself the Voice of Freedom.

285
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:52,759
Speaker 4: What does he talk about? This Voice of freedom? It's nonsense,

286
00:16:52,799 --> 00:16:57,440
of course, a light propagand than nonsense. You sure you

287
00:16:57,519 --> 00:16:59,559
have never heard him? I told you here, Growba, I

288
00:16:59,639 --> 00:17:05,839
have no old radio. Of course I forgot. Why is

289
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,799
it he long? I have the feeling I've seen you

290
00:17:09,279 --> 00:17:10,200
somewhere before.

291
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,599
Speaker 5: It was ridiculous to suppose that he had ever seen

292
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,519
me before. But he told me one thing. The people

293
00:17:19,599 --> 00:17:24,160
were listening, and the Gestapo was looking for me.

294
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:26,279
Speaker 2: I'll help you.

295
00:17:31,599 --> 00:17:35,200
Speaker 8: Mark with that cough of yours. Perhaps i'd better broadcast tonight.

296
00:17:35,319 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 4: No, no, no, I'll be all right.

297
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:43,759
Speaker 5: Yeah, people of Fribourg, this is your Voice of Freedom.

298
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,319
I want to tell you, my friends, how step by

299
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:51,079
step Hitler has developed his program. Step by step he

300
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,759
has carried it out successfully. First he took our men

301
00:17:54,839 --> 00:17:57,880
and destroyed them. And now Hitler is destroying our cities

302
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:04,640
and our factories. Allied bomb will destroy all Germany. Our

303
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,440
men are already dead in one hundred battlefields. This is

304
00:18:08,519 --> 00:18:12,359
the purest greatest achievement for Germany. He is accomplishing it

305
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:16,480
all in less than twelve short years. Twelve short years

306
00:18:16,559 --> 00:18:17,960
of hitler Rites's success.

307
00:18:19,039 --> 00:18:21,519
Speaker 8: The adjemming the radio mark you'd better sign of.

308
00:18:25,039 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 5: This is the voice of Freedom saying good night. I

309
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,960
will not say Hyle Hitler. I say instead, God be

310
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:32,359
with you.

311
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,200
Speaker 8: I'm afraid they may be closing in here, Sille.

312
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,039
Speaker 5: It's the first time the Chaanda broadcast. We'll have to

313
00:18:37,079 --> 00:18:38,400
move fast, dismantle radio and.

314
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:38,880
Speaker 4: Get out of here.

315
00:18:39,079 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 8: The Vegan is right outside Horry.

316
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:48,519
Speaker 5: Less than five minutes later we'd left the basement of

317
00:18:48,559 --> 00:18:52,559
the schoolhouse near the cathedral. It's quiet in the streets,

318
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:58,119
too quiet, as if the city were holding its breath.

319
00:19:00,599 --> 00:19:01,400
Speaker 4: Something that happen.

320
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,400
Speaker 8: Good night until Friday. You know the place.

321
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 4: Let me take the radio tonight.

322
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,079
Speaker 8: Walk back to your room with it under your arm.

323
00:19:08,559 --> 00:19:11,039
Speaker 4: What foolish you always take the risk of being caught

324
00:19:11,079 --> 00:19:12,640
with I have the milk wagon.

325
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,279
Speaker 8: To hide it and the barn to bury it. We'd

326
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:20,039
better not stand it any longer. Good night again, and

327
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:21,200
take care of that car.

328
00:19:25,319 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 5: I started to walk quickly in the opposite direction. The

329
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,640
German triangulation had found the general location of the radio.

330
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:35,680
The neighborhood would be swarming with Gestapo any minute. The

331
00:19:35,759 --> 00:19:38,000
headlights of the official car came out of nowhere around

332
00:19:38,039 --> 00:19:40,519
the corner and blinded me. Here you are.

333
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:42,880
Speaker 4: Started to run.

334
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,839
Speaker 5: I talt into a doorway, up the stairs to the roof,

335
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,599
across the roof, down some stairs, again back into the street.

336
00:19:54,480 --> 00:20:00,079
Somehow I'd shaken them. I was three of them, so

337
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,000
I had to find somewhere to go, somewhere to hide.

338
00:20:03,039 --> 00:20:06,359
The movie house where I worked was close by. I

339
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:12,599
went in through the side door, y punched down in

340
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:16,759
a seat, anonymous in the darkness. I was one of

341
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:21,200
hundreds of people watching the trap. And then something happened

342
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:22,759
in the film, and the soundtrack went.

343
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,519
Speaker 1: So that's another time.

344
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:31,799
Speaker 4: You people. Listen to me. There will be Noma Field tonight.

345
00:20:32,079 --> 00:20:32,880
Speaker 8: Nothing you me.

346
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 5: Take your navigation of a free man, and.

347
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 11: This one by right, that god thing from man I

348
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:44,720
seem coming into the theater through the side dock a

349
00:20:44,799 --> 00:20:48,200
man who is planted for quistening by the Gestapo. You

350
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,839
will file out the exit one by one and row

351
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,559
by row with no talking.

352
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:58,039
Speaker 8: We mean to the right men to the left, there.

353
00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:58,839
Speaker 2: Will be noma.

354
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,759
Speaker 5: Maybe my forge that done vacation would pass suspecsion easily,

355
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,200
but the men would chasing me had a general idea

356
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:05,079
of my height and weight.

357
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:06,519
Speaker 4: I couldn't take the chance.

358
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 5: I put my hand in my pocket and pulled out

359
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:13,000
a round disc about the size of a lemon. The

360
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:17,319
noise maker oss called the heady Lamara. I yanked out

361
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:24,799
the cat and through it I started a riot, all right.

362
00:21:25,519 --> 00:21:28,640
The soldiers couldn't hold them back. They practically walked over them,

363
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,079
and they rushed to get off. And I walked out too,

364
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:33,680
swept along, and the tied up panic.

365
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:49,359
Speaker 4: Couldn't talk. You are a group just on your way

366
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:53,000
to work. I see, I will walk with you padway. Well,

367
00:21:53,079 --> 00:21:57,319
if you'd like tonight, when you get home from your work,

368
00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:58,599
listen to your aid.

369
00:21:58,799 --> 00:22:01,799
Speaker 9: I told you I have no ready. I do keep

370
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,119
forgetting you are welcome to listen to mine. Then there

371
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,559
has to be an important announcement at seven o'clock. Announced

372
00:22:08,559 --> 00:22:11,400
it about what I learned about it this morning at

373
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,240
the administration building where I work. Yes, there has to

374
00:22:14,279 --> 00:22:16,519
be a hanging in the square at noon tomorrow and

375
00:22:16,599 --> 00:22:17,680
a lined spy who was.

376
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 4: Caught with the radio. What did you say, spy? She

377
00:22:21,079 --> 00:22:24,240
was picked up last night driving a milk Can you

378
00:22:24,279 --> 00:22:26,839
imagine the job? Look? Are you?

379
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,319
Speaker 9: I haven't been well call I haven't caught the man,

380
00:22:30,759 --> 00:22:32,799
the one who calls himself the voice of freedom, but

381
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,000
I have no doubt they will.

382
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,160
Speaker 4: So they're offering a large reward.

383
00:22:36,319 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 5: Are they.

384
00:22:39,599 --> 00:22:43,079
Speaker 4: Very bad? Helena? Tonight when you return from work and

385
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,079
remind me to give you some of my cough medicine.

386
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:55,920
It's very Oh, I turn off here. People say I

387
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,240
didn't stop buying for the cost medicine.

388
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 5: Work. I locked myself in my room and stayed up

389
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:06,720
all night looking out of the window about the ice

390
00:23:06,839 --> 00:23:10,839
blue stars that hung over Germany. H and I tried

391
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:15,240
to think of something to do to help Lucille. Before

392
00:23:15,319 --> 00:23:18,039
noon the next day, I went to the square, but

393
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:19,440
I still didn't have the answer.

394
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:23,640
Speaker 9: Isn't it frightening, Haraiah. The way an execution is draw

395
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,759
the people like it flies to honey? Is it destination?

396
00:23:26,839 --> 00:23:29,079
Do you think of seeing someone else suffer?

397
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 4: You tell me a group you should know? You're here?

398
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:39,880
So I am back then? So I do woo woman?

399
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:46,319
Have you anything to say before you die? People frightened?

400
00:23:47,519 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 8: Remember what you heard on your radios? Remember what the

401
00:23:50,519 --> 00:23:54,599
Voice of Freedom told you? The group, the group. You'll

402
00:23:54,640 --> 00:24:01,039
need a claim you the fly world, I relied, Higa.

403
00:24:01,799 --> 00:24:02,559
I think.

404
00:24:04,519 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 9: With you.

405
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 4: It happened quickly. It was all over here and I

406
00:24:14,039 --> 00:24:29,839
hadn't done a thing to stop it. Yes, who is it? Only? I? Yeah? Groover?

407
00:24:31,599 --> 00:24:31,920
Speaker 2: Go away?

408
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:32,839
Speaker 4: Will you please.

409
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:34,400
Speaker 2: Go away?

410
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 5: I don't want to talk to.

411
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:41,400
Speaker 4: Anyone, said my friend about the hanging this afternoon. No, no,

412
00:24:41,519 --> 00:24:41,759
I I.

413
00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 9: Just don't feel well. Don't torment yourself this way. There

414
00:24:47,039 --> 00:24:49,839
was nothing you could do to prevent it. She did

415
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:50,559
not expect it.

416
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:53,599
Speaker 4: What are you talking about? Trust me?

417
00:24:54,279 --> 00:24:57,160
Speaker 9: You have no one else to trust. The Guesta is

418
00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,640
going to check and cross check every man's papers, every man, Fryborg.

419
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,839
Are you sure you can stand a thorough investigation?

420
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,799
Speaker 4: Are you're crazy? Are you accusing me? Are the Voice

421
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,960
of Freedom I suspected it for a long time. I

422
00:25:12,079 --> 00:25:15,599
was never sure. I was afraid to step forward soon now, no, no,

423
00:25:16,319 --> 00:25:18,319
listen to me. I know you don't like me.

424
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:23,640
Speaker 9: I have not liked myself for years. I'm afraid of

425
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:30,559
my own schedule, afraid to think, afraid, afraid, but no

426
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:32,319
longer a global look.

427
00:25:33,319 --> 00:25:35,759
Speaker 4: I am a discharged soldier from the wellmark.

428
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,200
Speaker 9: I have made your face look familiar. It was not

429
00:25:38,319 --> 00:25:41,440
your face, but it was something about you, your voice.

430
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,359
I thought I recognized it, and then I started to think.

431
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,680
I think I would have been afraid to think for years.

432
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:52,880
You came to Fryborg, but at the same time the

433
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:57,160
broadcast began. You you were too ignorant of what was

434
00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:02,359
going on. And then yesterday, as he had I was

435
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:03,599
almost sure.

436
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:07,359
Speaker 4: Then no to be. I watched your face when she

437
00:26:07,599 --> 00:26:18,160
was hanged, and then you have no one else. He

438
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:18,680
was right.

439
00:26:19,839 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 5: I had no one else, and I had to get

440
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,680
out of Fribork. Gruber offered to drive me across the

441
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,240
bridge that night. From there it would be only a

442
00:26:29,319 --> 00:26:32,599
few miles to the border of France. With his official

443
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,759
pass from Gustappo headquarters, Gruber would be able to get

444
00:26:35,799 --> 00:26:38,759
past the guard. I got into the trunk of the car.

445
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,839
It was opened just enough to let me breathe. I

446
00:26:43,079 --> 00:26:46,039
still didn't know whether to trust him. There was a

447
00:26:46,079 --> 00:26:50,160
pretty big price on my head. The car slowed down

448
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:51,160
when he reached the bridge.

449
00:26:51,839 --> 00:26:55,319
Speaker 12: Let me see your identification there you are.

450
00:26:57,799 --> 00:27:01,039
Speaker 4: What is your business outside of fiboo? Official business for

451
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:01,920
the administration.

452
00:27:04,319 --> 00:27:07,599
Speaker 2: This looks all right. I have orders to search all cars.

453
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:09,559
Speaker 9: Well, you can see that it's nothing in mine. Please,

454
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:11,920
will you hurry? I'm this is official business for.

455
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 3: The one moment, one moment.

456
00:27:13,759 --> 00:27:16,440
Speaker 2: Not so first. What's in your trunk?

457
00:27:16,799 --> 00:27:17,359
Speaker 4: The drunk?

458
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 9: Well, go see for yourself. I have an American spy there.

459
00:27:21,799 --> 00:27:23,359
I'm smuggling him across the board.

460
00:27:24,759 --> 00:27:29,839
Speaker 4: Don't be impudent, you understand. I'm sorry. I was just

461
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:30,799
having my little.

462
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 2: Joke, and I don't like jokes. You work as a

463
00:27:33,559 --> 00:27:36,319
clerk for the administration, or your head swells you think

464
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:36,880
you're himler?

465
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:57,160
Speaker 4: All right, pass, I'm sorry, All right, Pass quickly, quickly

466
00:27:57,279 --> 00:27:57,880
get out here.

467
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 5: I want to apologize for the things I thought when

468
00:28:02,759 --> 00:28:03,880
you told the guard what she did.

469
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 4: It was the only thing I could think of. It

470
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:11,240
the moment that would prevent him from searching the trunk well, goodbye,

471
00:28:11,559 --> 00:28:13,160
yes and thank you, thank you.

472
00:28:13,799 --> 00:28:19,240
Speaker 9: No, wait, don't feel the woman died for nothing. She

473
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:24,160
did not you, and she have given us the courage

474
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:28,079
to look at ourselves in the mirror. We will continue

475
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:32,119
to talk in whispers yeah, but after you have gone,

476
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,400
there will be many of us who will no longer

477
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:41,400
thinking whispers yes, well, good bye, good bye.

478
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 3: Major Mark Langer made his way back to Allied lines.

479
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,240
When Fribourg was taken over some months later. It offered

480
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:58,559
little resistance thanks to the strong underground that had been

481
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:03,559
encouraged by the Black Radio US. Once again, the report

482
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:08,359

one of radio's best loved musical programs, which returns to

502
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:22,119
the air tonight.

503
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,599
Speaker 2: Three Times Mean Good Times on NBC.

504
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:37,960
Speaker 4: Welcome Back.

505
00:30:38,359 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 1: The first three fourths of this episode is a really

506
00:30:42,559 --> 00:30:46,240
great World War two espionage story, and then the final

507
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:50,599
minutes really take it to another level in terms of drama.

508
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:55,480
The death of Lucille was so powerful, courageous defiance in

509
00:30:55,559 --> 00:30:59,000
the face of death. I will not say, hal Hitler,

510
00:30:59,599 --> 00:31:03,279
I say God be with you. And Gruber goes on

511
00:31:03,519 --> 00:31:07,599
this whole journey as a person in some very subtle

512
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:12,599
ways that mark missus or missus interprets until the end

513
00:31:13,359 --> 00:31:18,319
and really brings home what their effort has meant and accomplished.

514
00:31:19,359 --> 00:31:23,119
It's a story about what courage means and how it

515
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:27,160
affects and inspires others, and how sometimes you don't think

516
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,279
you're getting through to people, but you don't know what's

517
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:33,799
going on on the inside. And this is such a

518
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:38,880
very different performance for Barry Kroger in this series, who

519
00:31:39,119 --> 00:31:43,440
more often than not it plays Nazi officers and heavies.

520
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:49,119
This is just a beautifully nuanced performance and gives us

521
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,680
an idea of his reign. And Gruber has this line

522
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,519
when he is talking to Mark at the end that

523
00:31:56,799 --> 00:32:00,640
we may talk in whispers, but we will no longer

524
00:32:01,079 --> 00:32:05,680
think in whispers. And this is such a powerful point

525
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:12,279
that's worth really highlighting. That the fascist regimes during World

526
00:32:12,319 --> 00:32:16,279
War Two and later the communist regimes in the Cold

527
00:32:16,359 --> 00:32:21,039
War thrived on keeping people in fear, and that's certainly

528
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,359
true of many regimes today. And it wasn't just fear

529
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:29,279
of speaking up, but being so afraid that you shut

530
00:32:29,359 --> 00:32:32,279
off your brain to what's going on. And it's just

531
00:32:32,559 --> 00:32:36,240
such great insight. Now, in terms of lighter notes, I

532
00:32:36,319 --> 00:32:41,839
did shuckle at Gruber's bluff to get past the guard

533
00:32:42,119 --> 00:32:44,920
by telling the truth. I mean, it was hilarious, but

534
00:32:45,119 --> 00:32:48,720
it was also really tense and going further towards the

535
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,359
other part of the story. When Mark was jumping out

536
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,960
of the plane, I couldn't help but think about another

537
00:32:55,359 --> 00:32:59,680
Larry Haynes's appearance in this series and jumping out of

538
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,279
the and how that went, and thought, yeah, he definitely

539
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:08,079
did have reason to be nervous. Listener comments and feedback

540
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,759
and we start out over on Spotify where mechanics sixty

541
00:33:11,839 --> 00:33:13,279
six comments.

542
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 5: Regarding roof of the World.

543
00:33:15,079 --> 00:33:20,559
Speaker 1: How was it possible that Louise Barkley could pronounce Himalayan

544
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:27,559
as Himilian. Didn't they have rehearsals, I'd assume, so I

545
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:32,000
would just assume it was a technical goof on someone's part.

546
00:33:32,599 --> 00:33:37,000
It's even possible that someone gave her the idea it

547
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,319
was Himilian, or it could be a mistake she made

548
00:33:40,359 --> 00:33:43,440
while recording and they just decided it was not worth

549
00:33:43,519 --> 00:33:47,559
the effort to change it, or somebody missed it. Emmett

550
00:33:48,119 --> 00:33:52,880
Wrights regarding the episode on Facebook, Dang, I like the show.

551
00:33:53,039 --> 00:33:54,279
Speaker 4: Too few of them were made.

552
00:33:54,519 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 1: Every episode has me guessing like today, I thought maybe

553
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:02,039
the Nazi was going to flip to the Americans. The

554
00:34:02,119 --> 00:34:05,279
writing is uniformly good. It was also a lot of

555
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:08,159
fun to hear Ralph Bell in there. I think he

556
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,679
was one of the Tibetans. I believe so as well.

557
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:16,519
And this has been just a really great series that

558
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,519
didn't receive the attention it deserved at the time and

559
00:34:20,679 --> 00:34:24,039
has been a bit more obscure, and so we're really

560
00:34:24,119 --> 00:34:28,360
glad to be able to highlight this. And then a

561
00:34:28,679 --> 00:34:33,800
comment from Sasoff regarding the episode, a recommendation from Romel

562
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,480
It wasn't just Ralph Bell who played against his usual

563
00:34:37,599 --> 00:34:40,440
type in this episode. This is the first time that

564
00:34:40,559 --> 00:34:44,000
I've heard Jan Minor play a role that her to

565
00:34:44,159 --> 00:34:48,760
speak in a foreign accent. And then have a comment

566
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:56,079
from in DC eight nine three four very enjoyable, entertaining, exciting,

567
00:34:56,199 --> 00:34:58,519
but not to nail biting just right.

568
00:34:58,800 --> 00:34:59,760
Speaker 4: Well, thanks so much.

569
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,199
Speaker 1: I'm glad you enjoyed it.

570
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:02,000
