Something happened, something important, I guess because Agnes 380 00:22:23,559 --> 00:22:24,279 didn't show up. 381 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 3: You want to know something else, you'll tell me. 382 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,880 Speaker 2: When Agnes and I were going to get married, Well, 383 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,240 I have a friend that does weddings at a pretty 384 00:22:33,319 --> 00:22:36,119 nice rate for friends.

I don't 427 00:25:33,319 --> 00:25:35,359 know what did he know about being afraid? 428 00:25:35,519 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 3: But you know, do. 429 00:25:38,519 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 12: Tell me who tried to tell your sister the night 430 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,880 before she was to marry John webs He said. 431 00:25:42,759 --> 00:25:48,279 Speaker 5: I knew about being praise You are right now because. 432 00:25:48,079 --> 00:25:53,079 Speaker 3: Your sister has gone from here forever. You know, my 433 00:25:53,279 --> 00:25:57,599 sister finally succeeded in I do very. 434 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 5: Well with others. I can do things for myself. 435 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:02,599 Speaker 3: She's trying to marry John Webster. 436 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,640 Speaker 5: You're trying to kill her someone else. So what difference 437 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,799 does it make. She didn't hurt herself and she didn't 438 00:26:10,839 --> 00:26:14,519 want done with joy. How she told me so the 439 00:26:14,599 --> 00:26:17,880 whole day we didn't stack together, and she told me 440 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:22,119 over and over again how long she did It. 441 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,400 Speaker 3: Was different to Thomas Perry. This time she knew she 442 00:26:24,599 --> 00:26:27,200 wasn't wrong. So you killed her. What's draut of a 443 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:27,880 kitchen window? 444 00:26:29,519 --> 00:26:30,599 Speaker 5: Watched her fall? 445 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 3: Now you're alone. 446 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,599 Speaker 5: She wasn't going to marry Tom Perry. She was going 447 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:36,079 to leave me. 448 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,519 Speaker 3: She told me that you have John Webster because he 449 00:26:38,559 --> 00:26:41,160 knew your child, knew you'd try to do it once before. 450 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:43,599 Speaker 5: You didn't think I could do things like that, did you? 451 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:46,039 None of you know the things I can do. 452 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,759 Speaker 3: When you hung yourself afraid I might come to later. 453 00:26:49,799 --> 00:26:52,559 Speaker 5: I'm clever. I waited to do knocked on the door 454 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,039 the thing you people don't know. 455 00:27:00,079 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 8: Oh, you people don't know. 456 00:27:03,839 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 3: I'm through the way that the spring the audio I 457 00:27:12,279 --> 00:27:14,559 dream to mine and the clowns to me. 458 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 5: I took it on. 459 00:27:16,759 --> 00:27:25,559 Speaker 3: Tell themself your sigh? What's smer. 460 00:27:48,839 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 2: Broadway screaming? Now it snears and makes a big fist 461 00:27:52,759 --> 00:27:57,039 of the knife. The carnival is boiling, and it's the 462 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,119 clown of a jack in the box that leaps from 463 00:27:59,200 --> 00:27:59,920 dark doorway. 464 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 3: And it's the geek with no arms, no legs, no heart. 465 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:13,759 Speaker 2: It's Broadway. It's Audium, the most violent, the lonesome vil 466 00:28:13,839 --> 00:28:14,440 in the world. 467 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,200 Speaker 3: Broadway, Mighty. 468 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:35,079 Speaker 13: Broadways, My Beat, star Larry Thor's Detective Danny Clover with 469 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,680 Charles Calvert Sarteglia. The program was produced and directed by 470 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:42,559 Elliot Lewis. The musical score composed and conducted by Alexander Kurrige. 471 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,039 Included in the night's cast were Jeanette Nolan, Heeggy Weber, 472 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:50,240 Marjorie Bennett, Francis X. Bushman, head Off Brand Van Waxman. 473 00:29:02,400 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: S welcome back. It's not all that while that a 474 00:30:04,839 --> 00:30:09,279 funeral parlor would have a sleazy practice of using funeral 475 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:13,960 guestbooks for solicitations, it's a bit much to think that 476 00:30:14,119 --> 00:30:16,599 they would reveal it to the police. And of course 477 00:30:16,759 --> 00:30:21,400 Danny is going to just frustrate the effort. Because the 478 00:30:21,519 --> 00:30:26,640 conversation with the ex wife was interesting because she made 479 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:30,680 this point of saying John's other wife, and that was 480 00:30:30,799 --> 00:30:34,920 actually a reference to a nineteen thirty six to nineteen 481 00:30:35,279 --> 00:30:40,720 forty two soap opera called John's Other Wife. It was 482 00:30:40,839 --> 00:30:44,880 produced by our old friends, the Hummers, and it was 483 00:30:45,079 --> 00:30:49,559 about the wife of a department store owner whose name 484 00:30:49,799 --> 00:30:56,160 was John, who was suspicious that her husband was having 485 00:30:56,359 --> 00:31:02,359 a relationship with either his secretary or his assistant. Personally, 486 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,960 I'd be suspicious why he needed both a secretary and 487 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,119 an assistant, but I'm more likely to be an auditor 488 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,359 than a jealous wife. I suppose it was an essence 489 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:18,599 a golden age of radio precursor to that current millennial 490 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,640 and gen Z phrase work wife. It was kind of 491 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,720 surprised when I looked it up that this only lasted 492 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:31,000 six years, because the title John's Other Wife is referenced 493 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:34,119 all over the Golden Age of radio, and you'll even 494 00:31:34,279 --> 00:31:38,480 see it in cartoons, you know, and when this episode aired, 495 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:43,160 John's Other Wife had been off the radio for eight years. 496 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:48,200 You'll hear it referenced in all sorts of comedic materials 497 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:52,799 with Bing Crosby, Red Skelton, Bob Hope. And it's probably 498 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,440 more to the point the title that was so catchy 499 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,160 and it was popular for a while that it kind 500 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:02,400 of stuck around in pomp culture. It's probably one of 501 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:07,279 those titles that was memorable even by people who didn't 502 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,519 listen to the series. And I suspect that was true 503 00:32:11,799 --> 00:32:15,440 of Fine and Freaking. It really is a stretch to 504 00:32:15,559 --> 00:32:19,359 work in the phrase John's other wife. I'm kind of 505 00:32:19,519 --> 00:32:24,440 suspicious that Fine and Freakin might have named the murdered 506 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,880 man John just so they could do that, though well, 507 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,559 I suppose it could have worked in reverse that they 508 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,440 had a character named John, they had his ex wife 509 00:32:33,599 --> 00:32:36,279 and she had been jealous, and so they just decided 510 00:32:36,359 --> 00:32:39,400 to use the phrase I don't think it ever was 511 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,400 common or would have been something most people would have 512 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:50,000 done to call someone they suspected was having a relationship 513 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,160 with their husband and the other wife. A bit of 514 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:56,799 an interesting usage and a big stretch for a pop 515 00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,440 culture reference to something that had been off the air 516 00:32:59,519 --> 00:33:02,440 for a year. I did enjoy this story, and I 517 00:33:02,519 --> 00:33:05,519 think the solution took me by surprise, as did the 518 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:09,759 final struggle. I think we as an audience tended to underestimator. 519 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:15,119 So overall, another solid case, despite the sound quality hiccups. 520 00:33:15,559 --> 00:33:18,640 Now we turn to listener comments and feedback, and we 521 00:33:18,799 --> 00:33:22,920 start with Raymond, who, along with his donation, sent a 522 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,720 note in the memo line thanks for all the great 523 00:33:26,799 --> 00:33:31,039 podcasting your low key but informative commentary. Well, thank you 524 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,200 so much, Raymond. And then we have some comments on 525 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:39,400 YouTube regarding the Mary Demi murder case. We start with Ryanser, 526 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:44,319 who writes Johnny Dollar did this case too? I don't 527 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:50,200 think so. While Fine and Freakin did write some Johnny 528 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,960 Dollar scripts, this doesn't really feel like one of them, 529 00:33:54,599 --> 00:33:59,039 because the whole key to the case in that particular 530 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:04,000 episode was using the yearbook to solve the crime. And 531 00:34:04,119 --> 00:34:08,920 I cannot recall any episode of Johnny Doler that took 532 00:34:09,079 --> 00:34:12,360 that tap as the featured point of the story, and 533 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:15,280 certainly not in one that Fine and Free Can wrote. 534 00:34:15,639 --> 00:34:19,440 Although it's easy to get confused because there is a 535 00:34:19,599 --> 00:34:24,920 lot of similar tropes and approaches that were used during 536 00:34:25,039 --> 00:34:29,639 the golden age of radio, not everything was as original 537 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,480 as we might have liked sometimes. And then we have 538 00:34:32,599 --> 00:34:37,679 a comment from Sinzeno, who writes, excellent script, well acted 539 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:42,960 and really gritty. And then another one, I am Zadock 540 00:34:43,039 --> 00:34:46,599 says I love these old radio mysteries detectives. They make 541 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:50,920 modern television look terrible.
