Speaker 3: Broadways might Beat with Larry Thorr as Detective Daddy Koberg.
Speaker 2: The November morning sits down over Broadway, and for a
time the swarm stands bewildered, stares at its empty hands.
The solitude begins to shape itself once more, out of
November's winds, out of the silent, colorless neon out of
mists flaring upward from manhold. And finally the solitude is
clear and present, whispering again its desolate invitation and the
derelicts of morning run from it. Beat open a door,
plead for refuge. Find it in a time clock. It's
another day, kid, all yours and at headquarters. Do the
things of the morning. Brush the night dust off the
unfinished report. Walt up the paper cup with the dregs
of cold coffee, Toss it in the wastebasket. They're a
page of a calendar.
Speaker 4: The shooting.
Speaker 5: Don hold, this man says, he shuts to talk.
Speaker 6: Here's the address.
Speaker 2: Take it from the Sargeants go to the address. And
the man standing dropped against the wall of the apartment,
one hand in a fist pressed hard against his chest,
pushing back the fragment of light that was still inside him,
watching see through his fingers, took you, You took your time.
Speaker 6: Let me help you out.
Speaker 2: Oh put just stay.
Speaker 6: Stay Chris?
Speaker 2: Who shot you?
Speaker 7: Stanley? Stanley glove? A little nothing worked for me.
Speaker 6: I put to prive of this stand. Get you.
Speaker 2: The ambulance will be here in a minute.
Speaker 6: Keep jack handil okay, I'm di. Did you.
Speaker 7: What you've got to do with your Alex Raven? That's me,
That's who I was. You kick that little button, hid
to kivin, and you burn, and the.
Speaker 2: Words stopped, and briefly the mouth that moved over nothingness,
voicing nothing, moving quickly and fiffly like quicksilver, till it froze.
So the shape of it was forever because he was dead,
and after that Alex Raymond objectively, the measuring of his
death by instruments, men with cigars, the photographing of it,
the recording of it underheading files active and take a
piece of the image away with you. A name of
killer named Stanley Lawson, employee of Alex Raymond. Consult other records,
make a phone call, come up with an address, go
to it. Yes, my name's Clover. I'm from the police.
Speaker 6: What is it you want?
Speaker 2: I'm looking for a Stanley laws in the card on
your door.
Speaker 6: Stanley Laws and I noted loss in his wife. Why
are you looking for him?
Speaker 2: Suspicion of murder? Missus Lawson?
Speaker 6: All right, coming in here. Stanley isn't home.
Speaker 2: Where is it?
Speaker 6: If he committed murder, he's probably running or hiding or
whatever a new murderer is supposed to do what I do?
Which one did he kill? What do you mean which one?
Raymond or Harper?
Speaker 2: A little while ago a man named Alex Raymond said,
your husband shot him?
Speaker 6: Then Edwin Harper must be running or hiding too.
Speaker 2: Do you mind telling me what you're talking about?
Speaker 6: Raymond and Harper incorporated together, the employed my husband to
make them rich. In this, my husband was successful. That
he's made one of them dead. We'll give you some
idea of how important my husband was to the concern.
Speaker 2: You think your husband's going to kill Edwin Harper too?
Speaker 6: My husband is what is known among educators, among partygoers,
among those who conversationally psychoanalyzed people as a plugger. The
fact that my husband has set his mind to wiping
out Raymond and Harper simply means that he had to
kill one of them first.
Speaker 2: And none of this surprised Junis as West.
Speaker 6: Me, least of all. I'm his wife. I attend his
emotional moments. I know about my husband.
Speaker 2: Would you mind telling me why he killed Alex Raymond?
Speaker 6: No, nor why he'll kill Harper. Stanley has been working
for them for fifteen years, A designer of their happy
toys for tops. He's fired and yesterday without a girl, watch,
without a pat on the back, just slip. What does
a plugger do after plugging in a pattern for fifteen years?
Stanley killed, you're wasting your time talking to me and
mister Clover. I'd find Edwin Harper if I were you,
that is, if you feel the necessity of saving his life.
Speaker 2: And consider for a moment her easy acceptance of the
violence that had intruded on her life, the final flourish
that put an end to the meaningless pattern that had
been hers her husband's shown in the way she wraps
the tended portrait of him in the newspaper. It gives
it to your wants it back when you throw with it,
and you give her the promise leave her with it.
Then a murderer's description on the wires, the all points bulletin,
a woman's toneless voice in prowl car radios, Killer at Large,
Get it all moving, Then go to the man missus
Lawson told you about the other man her husband wants dead.
Edwin Harper. Find him in his office at the factory.
Watch him nervously caress a toy as he tries to
understand it. Look you, Alex and me, we built a
big thing here with Christmas coming on, is going to
be bigger than Alex Ramon is dead. Mister Harper, I
don't know any other way to tell you. Don't kid me, mister,
this toy I got here in my hands, our bigg as.
Now with the Alex and me, we're going to fight
all the kids in the country. But Alex Stanley Lawson
shot him, killed him in cold blood. Why why would
a little punk like Stanley do a thing like that?
Nobody does things like that. Blossom did because you fired him.
His wife told me he'd been with you for fifteen years.
There are jobs, all kinds of jobs. Are a punk
like Stanley defends janiting all kinds of jobs. We get
rid of people all the time. We don't expect to
get killed for it. Why did he get rid of Lawson?
He was washed up, prove finished dead. That's why missus
Lawson gives a thing for what she's hit. What she
tell you that her Stanley with the brains of our outfit,
that he sweat blood and tears were like to me
that he was devoted, loyal one hundred percent. That's what
she told you something like them, So maybe it's true.
Maybe that's how it was. We picked his brain and
then all of a sudden he don't come up with
anything anymore. Looks a designer who can't design anymore?
Speaker 6: Who needs you?
Speaker 2: I got to live too, You got weight to throw
it away? Yeah? You got any ideas where loss and
might go to hide? And in particular place? You mean
that punk that murder is done the loose? You haven't
got him, No, that's thought. Maybe you could help help.
It's me you got to help. Don't pendetate you next
heat want me, We'll take care of it. Mister Harper. Look,
I got no intention of dying, none at all, not
from Stanley, not from anything. It's your responsibility. You understand that.
You got to clear. I'm not going to die Kunning Clover,
Huh yeah, I'm detective Kenny. Oh sure, sure, come money. Yeah,
I've got the notation right here on my desk. You've
been asigned to me, haven't you? A while? Detective Muggaman
is on vacasion. That's right, sir. I've got some information
for you, but Benny about Stanley Lawson, rather negative information,
if I may say so, sure you may say so
just tell me about it, Yes, sir, all these from communications.
Stanley Lawson was seen going into a theater on forty
second Street, and at the same time this other report
spotted him on the Staten Island Ferry. There's another one
here from the West Side golf Clubber's a man. They're
on the tenth Cole has been teeing off for an hour.
All of them are check he's in a half dozen more, Sir,
Still haven't gotten Stanley Lawson. Thank you, Kenny, Yes, sir.
A pardoner Danny Clover speaking. This is Evan. He called me.
He just called me Lawson. He wants me to meet
him to bring money to him. He says he'd killed me.
Speaker 1: If my god, you're not going to let him kill.
Speaker 2: Where are you supposed to meet him? Of sixteenth at
nine o'clock if you take I'm going. Yeah, you're great.
I'm stayed right here. You've got to protect me. Don't
worry about a thing. We'll take care of it. Goodbye,
mister Harper. Kenny, Yes, report to me after you've had
your dinner. We've got something to take care of. Lieutenant Clover.
I'm glad you're here, Lieutenant. It's said about time nine o'clock.
Did everything set up? Kenny, Yes, sir, lights pa. We've
got a cordon around the whole block. As far as
the stakeout concerned, we're already good. It's the tenement across
the street.
Speaker 6: Uh huh.
Speaker 2: The tenement's unoccupied, sir, it's condemned. But a few minutes
ago we saw some movement up on the second floor
by anyhow, one of the officers city saw something. Move on.
I'll take it from here, had me the pa. Yes,
the spotlight's Kenny, Yes, sir, okay man already see yeah, Blossom,
this is the police. We know you're in there, Lawson.
We want you to come out with your hands up
one minute to make up your mind. We're coming in,
asking Kenny, Kenny, you officer, get an ambulance, you and
you cover me. I'm going in after him. You just
shot an officer, Lawson, throw away your gun and come
on down, or you won't get out of here alive.
All right, Lawson, any way you wanted, you're not going
to get me. Stop Lassen stop. I told you to
stop Lasson you.
Speaker 6: You made a mistake.
Speaker 8: I didn't kund.
Speaker 6: All of mistake.
Speaker 3: You are listening to Broadway is My Beach, written by
Martin Fine and David Freakin and starring Larry Thor as
Detective Danny Clover.
Speaker 2: Sh The light that curtains Broadway in late November is
a thing of gauze gray stuff that touches autumn with December.
It's the time when the shadows come in with the sun,
the time of the three coffee breakfast, the sweater and
the vest under the coat, but the pluck birds hang high.
There are stocks of corn and pumpkin pie behind moist
shop windows. It's holiday season, and up and down the
furious street chef's smile. There's no problem for Thursday's blueplate special.
Forget the headline's kid. Everywhere everybody'll be eating turkey, it says.
But when the new day comes. The light that drifts
into a hospital room has another texture because it lies
against clean walls and starched curtains before it touches a bed,
a bed where a man named Stanley Lawson lay a
murder suspect, and his wife considers him.
Speaker 6: Look at him, mister Clover in this stat is shot.
Isn't that what your doctors called the chock so clinical?
Meaning his mind is rejected him.
Speaker 2: Finally, you expect me to feel sorry for him, missus.
Speaker 6: Lawson, only for yourself, because you were forced to do
what you did. Shoot him. Talk with yourself, convince yourself
you did the only thing possible. My husband can't talk.
Who's the happier man?
Speaker 2: I can't answer anything about your husband, missus Lawson. The
only thing I know about him for sure is that
he shot a police officer. That he did that tempers
all my thinking about him.
Speaker 6: How is the officer bad?
Speaker 2: Very bad?
Speaker 6: I'm sorry, I know you are, mister Clover. Yes, you
said you were sure only that Stanley shot a police officer.
What about Alex Raymond?
Speaker 2: Your husband probably shot him too, probably before he passed out.
Your husband said something, said that everything was a mistake
just then.
Speaker 6: But everything is a mistake, everything always is. Look at him,
a man, a life, Look what's become of it?
Speaker 2: The resident says he has a good chance to live,
missus Lawson.
Speaker 6: That's fine. May I be along with him for a
whiles to cover the Please.
Speaker 2: Don't perform me anymore.
Speaker 8: Out the window, Benny say.
Speaker 2: Compreek with your lunch. Thanks, you know you're not shopping bank?
Oh I gave you was thirty five sands per sandwich.
Speaker 5: Not only did I get your lunch, Daddy, but I
brought by change.
Speaker 6: When did you see?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 5: That's just delegatess and Danny. All I got to mention
is I am here for Danny Clover. I don't even
need a number to get waiter on.
Speaker 2: What's all that stuff? You know?
Speaker 5: Your name is magic, Danny. I are you your hot
Postrami sandwich?
Speaker 6: The boys and sister?
Speaker 2: Isn't enough?
Speaker 5: Got to have washpies? What washbies?
Speaker 2: Danny? An expression meaning you.
Speaker 5: Got a free little delicacy from each of the poor
boys or golashbis from Sid a container cole slaw from Eddie,
that potato salad with cell receive from Frank a slice haliba,
and from.
Speaker 6: Her a.
Speaker 5: Coach. Your pickles slipped into my hand under the table,
Eat Danny, eating good.
Speaker 2: Helping quite a hole, Serge.
Speaker 5: You're welcome. I'm sure I also got along and got
them you asked I should pick up on my.
Speaker 2: Way back upstairs. Yeah, you're a ball of fire today,
you know.
Speaker 5: Thank you, I'm sure, and then tott them. Number one,
the gun with which Stanley Lawson committed murder upon Alex Raymond,
and did Detective Kenny.
Speaker 2: The boys can't find that. I haven't do it as yet,
no loss. Some shoots out of that tenement window hits Kenny.
I'm going right after him. We can't find his gun.
This is a puzzle.
Speaker 5: Then a fleeing fugitive off pauses away the weapon with
which he commented, Mayhem threw a window down a pipe.
That's what else have you got, you know, Adam Number
two concerning to decease Dalx Raymond, which you requested. It
seems that mister Raymond, as it must do, all men
have a girlfriend where a miss Gray's kildren Daddy Regent
powers West twenty three. However, why you need such? I
may answer it for you, Danny, and go ahead, Danny
Clovis office sergeant thought.
Speaker 2: What No, Yeah, I'll tell him, tell me what you know.
Speaker 9: Give me a minute, Kenny, Kenny the taptive, Kenny, he's dead.
Speaker 2: Watch Gino turn, walk quickly out of the room, go
searching for some empty place where the quick sorrow can't
be seen heard, And in a little while look out
the wind of see him, hatless, without a coat, wandering
the sidewalk, wandering the autumn wind, go to him, hand
him his coat and walk with him. Try to ease
it from him, explain it to him, to yourself. The
stairs are the passers by. Tell you you're not doing
real good. Then the brief time of being along with it,
the time it takes to get the twenty third street
to the region towers to a girl name of Grace Gilrin,
and for her instant in your life, let go of it.
Speaker 6: You're a policeman. Why won't they think?
Speaker 2: Up next, we'll talk to you, missus Gilrin? Up to Alex.
Speaker 6: Alex Raymond. He's dead, you know, dead and gone?
Speaker 2: You want to talk about it here in the hall?
Speaker 6: Oh glad you thought of the first. Come on in
good good that Chimsey divan over there, you look good on.
Speaker 2: That Alex Raymond? Just about him.
Speaker 10: I've read how you punched a bulletle and his killer.
What more can a man ask for?
Speaker 2: Some things? I need to know.
Speaker 6: About me, about me with Alex.
Speaker 2: Do you ever talk to you about his factory, about
the people who work for him?
Speaker 10: You mean the boy who put it to Alex? You
mean Stanley Lawson.
Speaker 2: Don't you know that's right?
Speaker 6: Killer?
Speaker 10: Murderer, pale, little man like him? The things that go
on inside these pale little men. Surprise is a girl?
Speaker 2: What did Raymond tell you about him?
Speaker 6: Just enough to bring up the arms? How Lawson was
quite a designer.
Speaker 2: Then why did they fire him?
Speaker 6: Beat me too? Especially after that XK twenty, the x
K t what's that?
Speaker 10: The secret weapon of the Raymond and Harper Company? A
toy rocket ship zooms fitz flame be toppy.
Speaker 6: You'll see them of the millions in the Christmas country.
Speaker 2: Lowson designed it and they fired him for that.
Speaker 10: You know now that you mention it, it makes me
one day. But what it was going to be a
surprise to Lawson. He brought in the first model of
the XK twenty last June, made it on his own time.
Alex and Edwin Harper looked at it and said it.
Speaker 6: Was just nothing.
Speaker 2: But you know what, just tell me.
Speaker 10: They showed it to a buyer. Anyhow, the buyer ordered
a thousand gross on the spot, so that a half
dozen other buyers.
Speaker 2: But they didn't tell Lawson about it.
Speaker 10: In fact, just to make it more of a surprise
for laws and they had the toy manufactured by a
subcontractor out of town. I'll tell you something else. Alex
was pretty might make a midion out of that XK
twenty a million XK twenty.
Speaker 2: Where do you.
Speaker 6: Confused? Is a girl like me? Hi? Donny, Danny, wait
for me?
Speaker 2: What's on your mind? You know here I should today
all wrapped up ready to go. Oh they found the gun?
Speaker 6: Where wedge between them.
Speaker 5: To bring in an old tire in the backyard of
the tournament?
Speaker 2: Well lost? And then Daday Flora, how come I wasn't
found sooner? Why ask me?
Speaker 5: I wasn't there?
Speaker 2: I don't know. Do something for me, you know, go
upstairs and get the fingerprints of everybody connected with this case.
Then take the Prince and the gun down the Gordon
technical Tell God'll be there in a half hour. Okay,
Denny Well, Danny Clover, I make you that happy Jordan.
Look Gordon. A little while ago, Sergeant A. Tagly came
down here with his grubby fizz a glow of things
for Gordon. For me to take care for you, because
I'm the only one who can a gun and a
few sets of fingerprints, you know. My advice to you,
so help me. Gorton Bury sickly threats from such a
big man. My advice to you Lieutenant is to keep
your mouth open and amazement and let your jaw hang there.
I've got a goodie for you. Okay, what is it?
The prince on the gun? You know who those are?
Lieutenant Losses, A dead man, Alex Raymond, a man who
felt dead in your arms yesterday afternoon? You kidding? If
I was kidding, you'd be laughing. But your jaws hanging
the way I said it would. Raymond, a man who
died yesterday afternoon, also left his and son a gun
that killed an officer who died last night. Very picky,
isn't it?
Speaker 6: Look?
Speaker 2: Mister Clover to pick me up at my place and
I came along with you without questions. Don't you think
it's time you told me what this is all about.
The last apartment in this corridor is a homeless family lawson,
the man who used to be your toy designer. I see,
what do you expect me to do?
Speaker 6: Look at it?
Speaker 2: Feel sorry for the people in zis his wife the
only one inside? You'd better briefly on what I'm supposed
to say to a woman whose husband killed my partner,
murdered an officer of the law. It'll come to.
Speaker 6: You good evening, mister Clover, this lasso, this is mister Harper.
Will youse come in? My husband talked about you often,
mister Harper.
Speaker 2: I want you to know how sorry I am about
what's happened. You're sorry, you really are, of course I am.
That's strange, missus Lawson. I was brought here for what reason?
Speaker 6: I don't change because my husband always said you were
a shrewd businessman. He never told me you were a liar.
Speaker 2: Look, Clover, what is all this? You said you were
sorry about what happened, and missus Lawson called you a liar.
In fact, Missus Lawson, that you're the wife of a
murderer makes anything you say pretty unimportant.
Speaker 6: Mister Cloger, Yes, I talked to my husband about an
hour ago. I know.
Speaker 2: That's why we've come here. If you too want to
chap your mind, if I leave mind.
Speaker 6: You know all about it. Mister Kloger, the.
Speaker 2: Police stenographer was in the hospital room when you spoke
with your husband. Showed me the transcript.
Speaker 6: Do you believe what my husband told me?
Speaker 2: Yes? Is your husband going to live?
Speaker 6: I don't know what about you, mister Happer, What what
about him?
Speaker 2: He's here? I suppose you just take me back where
you got me. Mister Clover, just who do you think
you were?
Speaker 6: Hopper?
Speaker 2: I wanted you to meet missus Lawson. I wanted you
to see her home. Go ahead, look around. This is
a home, mister Harper. This is a place where two
people made their lives. You'll never know what comes out
of these homes you. I got a little piece of
news for you, Harper. Lawson didn't kill your partner. Crazy
you were this, yeah, I know. But Lawson didn't kill
none of everything I've got fitted together. He didn't kill
now Colm Cord. Lawson went to Alex Raymond pleaded for
his job, demanded his job because he was frantic, because
he'd given you and Raymond fifteen years of his life.
Speaker 6: We paid him well, Thank you very much, mister Hopper.
Speaker 2: Demanded his job. Raymond pulled a gun and told him
to get out. Bowson wouldn't. Raymond threatened him. There was
a fight. The gun went off. Raymond had shot himself
in the struggle. Lawson fled, but Raymond told you, I know, oh,
he told me Losson had shot him. It was Raymond's
revenge for dying. The alleged killer had fled. We made
only a curse research for the murder weapon. This is ridiculous.
I'm getting out of here.
Speaker 6: If you moved, mister Hawker, I'll find something to kill
you with.
Speaker 2: I'll take care of him. Missus, what do you mean
you will take care of me? What have I got
to do with all this? Lawson called you, told you
what had happened, asked you to meet him, thanked for
your help, demanded money to leave town. I told you
that would hold except for one thing. A gun with
Raymond's prints on it. Not losson is because he never
held the gun. Ne held a gun he killed a
policeman with it, didn't lean No. After the phone call,
you went to Raymond's apartment, found the gun that Raymond
had hidden away to make it appear that Lawson was
a murderer. Then you went to the tenement head.
Speaker 6: Why why should I do that?
Speaker 2: I'll get to that. You hid in that tenement during
the stake of When I called it to Lawson, it
was you fired those shots, killed a policeman. You wore
gloves so that Raymond's princes would still be on the gun.
Now I'll tell you why you did all this. If
you can here wherever I am. This is why you
did it. Raymond was dead. You got a new toy
on the market that's going to make you a lot
of money, the toy that lost and brought you get
him out of the way, and all that money was yours.
No strings, No give me that gun, missus laws.
Speaker 6: You don't try to take it away from me. Do
you understand about me, mister Clover? You know what I do?
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I know.
Speaker 6: Pray for something, mister Harper, All right.
Speaker 2: All right, I confess to you. I did it. I
did everything he said.
Speaker 6: But don't do me. Is that what you call a prayer?
Don't let her do it? Please? Please?
Speaker 1: How did I go?
Speaker 2: Want to die?
Speaker 6: He won't listen to me. Killing?
Speaker 2: Killing? This is what you wanted, is miss missus Lawson.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and it's enough. Take him on.
Speaker 2: Broadway is sleeping now, and the people of the chasm
have gone home. Only the sleepwalkers are there, and the
dream seekers.
Speaker 6: The shadow dwellers.
Speaker 2: It's slimble time when the sodden dance, the derelicts, the
hugger is close of nothing. It's Broadway, the gaudiest, the
most violent, the monsromous mile in the world. Broadway My Beat.
Speaker 11: Tonight on FPN presents You've been listening to some of
the best in radio drama with Bibber McGhee and Molly
and Broadway as My Beats. Join us again Monday evening
at the same time Mine Old Fox whenn presents drag
Nets and.
Speaker 8: Escape Welcome Back.
Speaker 1: Well, I really episode. I love the mystery and the
solution to the case, and there were also some good
emotional moments, including the final confrontation. Now, of course, the
confession that was provided is not going to be legally admissible,
but I don't think that was really the point, at
least not on the wife's part. It gave her this
cathartic moment in the face of a man who tried
to ruin her husband's life and her life for financial
gain and to steal from them this grand invention and
what he was willing to do in order to make
that happen. I do have to say that Raymond is
exceedingly spotful. There's a reason that we tend to take
dying declarations seriously, because most people when they're dying aren't
going to lie. But I guess there are exceptions to
every rule. Also, like the moment when Tartaglia learned of
Officer Kenney's death and was so affected by it, and
Danny coming to his aid with his coat. It's a
great moment, and in a weird way, it's a very
visual scene, which you don't usually talk about much in audio,
but I think this is a great example of it.
You just imagine that picture in your mind, and it
does reflect that Danny really does care about Tartaglia as
a person. But the scene was still an understated scene
even though it was told to ex position, which can
be a tricky balance to strike. Of course, they still
had a job to do, and even though Danny cared
for Tartanklia, he gave him the unenviable task of going
to see Gordon.
Speaker 8: Gordon is by.
Speaker 1: Far the most insufferable recurring character on this program. He
manages to make simple ratory tests that any forensic criminologists
anywhere else in the country would just do and not
make a big deal about. He tends to want to
build him up like they're the labors of Hercules, and
he is an intellectual giant towering above humanity. I mean
I at the time, I was somewhat critical of Danny's
overbearing narration about the people from Technical But if we
had introduced Gordon before that scene, I don't think I
could be critical at all. All right, well, listener comments
and feedback now, and we are going to Patreon where
Emmett comments on our four thousand, nine hundred and fiftieth
episode special. What a pleasant surprise this one was. All
too often comedy doesn't age well, certainly not as well
as a mystery. This one, though, seemed to have a
totally different attitude, and I found myself laughing out loud
at some of the lines. I kind of thought he'd
fall into a trash can, but finding a melon, a
melon in his mouth was laugh out loud funny. I
hope you can find a few others in this series
that may be similar. Well, I don't know if we'll
find any more like that. Emma and I appreciate the comment,
but proudly we hail did a lot of different episodes
in a variety of styles, and hopefully we will get
a chance to revisit that series, because it, in my mind,
is a bit underrated for just some good usually like
comedy or what dramatic entertainment, though occasionally a little bit
of military adventure thrown in. But again, thanks so much
appreciate the comment Emitt. Now it's time to thank our
Patreon supporter of the day. Thank you to Zant, Patreon

was in the morning or the afternoon.
Speaker 4: Was that in the morning or in the PM PM?
Speaker 2: Can you tell us what she saw the defendant do
and what you heard him say at that place.
Speaker 4: You made before the hold up at nine thirty? Please
