Well, we're bringing you something a bit 10 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:12,920 different today. In years past, we brought you twice Told Tales, 11 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,239 where we take a look at one version of a 12 00:01:16,359 --> 00:01:20,560 radio script and how it was reused on another. This 13 00:01:20,799 --> 00:01:25,519 is different. I could, I suppose call it four times 14 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:30,280 told Tale, but don't let that scare you or put 15 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,879 you off. And I know some people might think hearing 16 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,200 the same exact story four times in a row doesn't 17 00:01:38,239 --> 00:01:41,879 sound very interesting. I think I'll skip to the next episode. Well, 18 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,799 let me explain a little. This is actually going to 19 00:01:45,799 --> 00:01:50,439 be a look at a yours truly Johnny Dollar serial 20 00:01:50,959 --> 00:01:56,079 that was written by E. Jack Newman under the pseudonym 21 00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:01,519 John Dawson. What makes Johnstones Yours Truly Johny Dollar cereals 22 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:06,719 interesting is that they are rarely a case of take 23 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:11,439 one script, pad it out, and there you go. Plus 24 00:02:11,479 --> 00:02:15,479 Crossfield did a few scripts that were like that, but 25 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:20,599 E Jack Newman tended to take elements and ideas from 26 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:25,719 different scripts and combine them into the Johny Dollar ceial. 27 00:02:26,159 --> 00:02:29,240 In addition, you'll get to hear how different actors and 28 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:35,520 creative teams handled these particular stories. So we're going to 29 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:40,759 be bringing you Jeff Reagan not beat Yours Truly Johnny 30 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,479 Dollar with John Lund and then the Yours Truly Johnny 31 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:49,240 Dollar Cereal with Bob Bailey.

Oh that's on your mind? 235 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,399 Can we talk someplace where there's less tame through me 236 00:14:53,519 --> 00:14:56,440 being hit on the head by a hammer. Cure, Come 237 00:14:56,480 --> 00:15:02,440 in the office. What'd you step? Always trying to it 238 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:09,120 is about a shadow out smugglers, worrying. Never says no, dotter, 239 00:15:09,399 --> 00:15:18,440 that's the squirt here you are? Yeah, so hello, okay, 240 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,480 this is good? All right? Weary to what do I 241 00:15:21,559 --> 00:15:24,039 owe the pleasure? Well, for one thing, I was wondering 242 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,600 whether you found a successors you want to haul the 243 00:15:27,679 --> 00:15:30,120 success Well, a lot of thing used to work for it. 244 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,480 To me, Oh, I'm glad you mentioned that, Mike. I 245 00:15:32,519 --> 00:15:35,440 could use a good contract man, which I just can't do. 246 00:15:35,639 --> 00:15:37,840 What's wrong with you? Me? Oh? I got a client? 247 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,519 So what so I'm afraid your interests are diametrically opposed. 248 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,200 I'm working for Peggy Hall. Well, don't tell me the 249 00:15:44,279 --> 00:15:47,440 police police she killed her husband. How did you know 250 00:15:47,519 --> 00:15:49,639 he was there? So several sources as a matter of fact, 251 00:15:49,679 --> 00:15:51,200 I think it was a flash of the radio about 252 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,080 an hour ago. What it's saying, I think Mar's only 253 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,240 does someone send a thirty two slucks who was right 254 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:57,840 in his office and the cops were holding her hot suspect. 255 00:15:58,039 --> 00:15:59,960 It is why the teams are out of their minds. 256 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,679 Why would Peggy kill him? My King's Arthur signed everything 257 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,039 you don't over to her and she didn't want to 258 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,159 give it back. What's no motives? I forgot to mention 259 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:07,799 that everything had to own amount of the court one 260 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:13,000 hundred thousand dollars. Hey, you private detectives do all right 261 00:16:13,159 --> 00:16:16,320 for other detectives and detectives juck Arthur had a few 262 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,720 soft touches. He convinced a couple of clients he had 263 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:20,919 political conditions, and he was looking for a fat little 264 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,440 feet each week. Hey, you don't have to tell me. 265 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,559 I was one of the principle contributors who I've heard. 266 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,000 What that's me is why the police haven't talked to you. 267 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,159 Maybe they have want to tell him, obviously, I'll have 268 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,279 to convince him at it and murder user, you want 269 00:16:34,279 --> 00:16:39,879 to try convincing me? Represented how's your drake the drink? Oh? Fine, 270 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,600 you want one for the road. Oh, I don't know. Hurry, 271 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,679 I can spare another few minutes. That is, well, I can't. 272 00:16:46,879 --> 00:16:48,679 It's okay, Dot, you don't have to beat me over 273 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,919 the head. I can take a hand. Let's see you 274 00:16:50,919 --> 00:17:06,119 are on the poor room. M Hello, do I tell 275 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,720 the last man I expected to see? Well, I hope 276 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,359 you don't mind my dropping around. I brought over the 277 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,000 Horowitz recording of the piano Pichetto. Oh yes, I thought 278 00:17:15,079 --> 00:17:17,400 maybe you'd like to compare it with the Littlebenstein job. 279 00:17:17,799 --> 00:17:23,599 You uh really didn't come for that, did it. I 280 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,119 guess there's no use my trying to keep you now. 281 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:30,200 I used to feel funny. I've known you, uh how long? 282 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,880 Maybe uh twenty four hours? And yet I feel that 283 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:37,440 there's a bond between us. Why you know me better 284 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,240 than I do myself? For example, I used to think 285 00:17:40,319 --> 00:17:45,680 I was incorruptible. Oh come no, I mean that I 286 00:17:45,799 --> 00:17:49,440 always tried it myself, that once I undertook uh an assignment, 287 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,920 nothing could swerve me for my purpose. But you did, 288 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,319 didn't You do as you did it with the money? 289 00:17:56,799 --> 00:17:59,960 Did I know that? Yes? Seemed to put ideas in life, 290 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,559 or get to the point count. But all I'm trying 291 00:18:02,599 --> 00:18:07,000 to say is that suddenly money has become tremendously important 292 00:18:07,079 --> 00:18:09,359 to me, So so I want lots of it? And 293 00:18:09,519 --> 00:18:12,920 do I look like fortnight? Well a reasonable facsimile. I 294 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,720 sold you your life at nine o'clock last night to 295 00:18:15,839 --> 00:18:19,440 ten thousand dollars. That was pretty cheap. But well, I 296 00:18:19,599 --> 00:18:22,799 bet I could have gotten five times that easily if 297 00:18:22,839 --> 00:18:25,000 I had that much here, Well, you better start losing 298 00:18:25,039 --> 00:18:29,359 it otherwise. I got to a fellow named Mike Wearing. No, 299 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,319 you wouldn't do that. Why not? I just don't think 300 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,519 you would. Why you're wrong that? How can I be? 301 00:18:37,519 --> 00:18:39,559 You admit? I know you're better than you do yourself. 302 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,880 And I don't see you going to Mike Wearing, I 303 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:56,400 just don't see it. I don't see if we understand 304 00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,880 each other count I think we do now, and you'd 305 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,640 be willing to repeop the things story to the cops. 306 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,279 My nine. Well, you admit it that you've been hired 307 00:19:02,319 --> 00:19:04,000 by Aldohol to take care of Dutch Nyder. If but 308 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,759 nothing happens that it isn't all what can happen to me? 309 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,960 You've got imagine logical minds? Thank you? Well, what do 310 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,000 you think of Bedutch's reaction when you learn who've been 311 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,799 up here. Well, I'm really not worried. You see, I 312 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,079 can look after myself. Hoping to prove it, hope a 313 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,480 death's drawer. I'm going start with the bottom one on 314 00:19:22,599 --> 00:19:25,039 the right. What are you talking about? You've got a 315 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,519 recording machine somewhere in there, and you've been taking down 316 00:19:27,599 --> 00:19:30,160 every bit of this dialogue. How did you know that 317 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:31,920 you're talking to a man who keeps up with the 318 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:35,000 leadst in that scene. I do a little home recording myself. 319 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:39,279 Oh but who thought of placing the microphone in the 320 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,359 waste paper basket? I mean, I take you that from 321 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:43,960 a story I want you to add.

How do you see? Oh that's too bad. 325 00:19:57,599 --> 00:20:00,680 Next time, remember you're not dealing with namety. I never 326 00:20:00,799 --> 00:20:11,799 auditioned for free kilk. And look ahead, it just take 327 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,680 a little more water. Nor come on, come on, let 328 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,440 me Oh just take it easy.

Oh you don't have to buy yourself a 333 00:20:34,559 --> 00:20:37,119 new record there, listen call it. A boy named George 334 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,599 Kelk was up here. I know you kept babbling his name. 335 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,160 Well he can clear Peggy's haul. Now, look, I tell 336 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,119 you I had the evidence. I ever seen no shoes. 337 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,319 We'll just stopped trying to human me. Arthur Haul originally 338 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,079 hired this Calcter bomb Dutch Schneider. Only Dutch was lucky 339 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,400 and bought its way out. I's got a strong enough 340 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,559 motive for you. You mean for ducks getting back at 341 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,920 Arthur home. Yeah, well, I'd be out of my mind 342 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,640 to say it wasn't. Well, Kelk can prove the whole business. 343 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,200 No he can't. Look sagiant. I talked with the man. 344 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:04,799 He told me at nine o'clock last night. He went 345 00:21:04,839 --> 00:21:07,039 up and braced gotch That's where you're run into trouble. 346 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,880 I don't see why. Well, that's because you haven't seen 347 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:15,279 the autopsy report. Arthur Hall was dead at eight, that's right, 348 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:20,279 a full hour before Kelk even got the Dutch. Yeah, 349 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,319 you better get the ass for in, Mike.

All back to the adventures of 352 00:21:41,559 --> 00:21:52,920 the Polcon. If Georgie Kelch made me sick, Sergeant Corvidd 353 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,920 wasn't exactly what the doctor ought to either. I refuse 354 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,000 to believe that Arthur Hall was killed an hour before 355 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,799 he even met Dutch Schneider. The sergeant showed it to 356 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,799 me in black and white. Here you are you behave? 357 00:22:04,519 --> 00:22:07,119 When did this autosity report comes through? Round six fifteen? 358 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,240 And I why didn't you call me? I tried to, 359 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,079 but you were well you could have left. No, he 360 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,119 got the other leads. No, you're client missus. Hall still 361 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:16,960 refuses to tell us what she did with a gun? 362 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,240 What gun? One of the ones you bought three months ago? 363 00:22:19,279 --> 00:22:21,559 In a pawn shot? All right, well, here hurts of it. 364 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,039 He was afraid with Arthur away from homes off And 365 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,599 that's possible. Why you buy it under a phony name? 366 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,640 He's a Loman wha, yes, of course that explains everything. Wow, 367 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,119 how can finally run a down through the car. The 368 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,680 pawnbroker remembers he was driving a blue sid Dan and 369 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:37,559 they got the first four numbers of the license for 370 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,000 the observant boy, what kind of a gun? Was it? 371 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,119 A police special? Devil was used on Hall? Could be 372 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,640 the slug we tried out of the wall was too 373 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,440 bad to tell. Look call it Peggy didn't kill her husband. 374 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,519 It's not in character. Oh that's good, that's real good. Hey, 375 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:53,640 you spend all of sixty minutes with the girl and 376 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:58,200 already you got her analyze. I tug you. Wait a minute. Oh, 377 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,039 if I'm not the original idiot, I've been saying that 378 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,039 for years. What's Peggy now? I'd expect Oh, I got 379 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:05,960 to see her. I just thought of something. The way 380 00:23:06,079 --> 00:23:08,359 my mind is working lately, I can't take a chance 381 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:18,880 of forgetting it. If there's anything I can do, Peg you, 382 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:20,960 why anything at all? Just let me know. Thanks. 383 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,319 Speaker 3: Let's not to the plain like where he didn't have everything. 384 00:23:24,559 --> 00:23:26,599 Speaker 2: Where much as I just liked the guy, I gotta 385 00:23:26,599 --> 00:23:29,000 admit he's capable. But if you want anybody, I'll open 386 00:23:29,079 --> 00:23:35,799 him up. Suman, Hello, Peggy? What happened? I used my 387 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,000 head when I shouldn't have. Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't 388 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,279 realize I had company. It's all right, Mike, I'm believe it. 389 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,799 Don't on my account, Dutch. Uh, the sergeant here has 390 00:23:44,839 --> 00:23:48,079 a call out for George count kelt Han't you heard 391 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:50,920 he was up to see me, desire? I didn't think 392 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,839 he would. Why not? I didn't think he knew anything 393 00:23:53,839 --> 00:23:56,480 about our murder. You're right he didn't. Oh hey, Mike, 394 00:23:56,559 --> 00:23:58,720 you said it was something you wanted to add, missus Hall. 395 00:23:58,759 --> 00:24:00,400 Oh yes, I'm glad you reminded me. Charge and I 396 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,400 almost forgot again? You got any plans for the night, Peggy, 397 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,119 that's not funny. I'm serious. I'd like to take you out. 398 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,000 Haven't I got anything to say about that? And don't 399 00:24:08,039 --> 00:24:10,279 get me wrong, sergeant, with the housing shortage what it is, 400 00:24:10,319 --> 00:24:12,640 I wouldn't leave you with an empty room. Mister Snyder 401 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,119 had been moving in her place? How about it? Judge, 402 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:19,920 what are you trying to say? Wherein you killed Arta Hall? There? 403 00:24:20,519 --> 00:24:32,160 I said it, and I'm glad. I can't believe it. 404 00:24:32,559 --> 00:24:35,880 I can't believe Bruce dud Snyder killed Alster. Which is 405 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,000 health Teggy, but it is obviously you had to be one. 406 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 3: Of you on that days. I'm glad you picked on that. 407 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 2: What can you give it? Said? Gun you? Miss Lake 408 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,519 fuck Sargean Corvitt said it was a police special and 409 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,680 that's a thirty eight calib a job. That's true. Well, 410 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,839 when I asked Corvett if he was positive the bullet 411 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,759 was fired from the police specialist, he admitted, they couldn't 412 00:24:56,759 --> 00:25:00,720 tell for sure. Yeah. So, so how come when I 413 00:25:00,799 --> 00:25:03,440 first went to see Dutch Schneider he knew definitely it 414 00:25:03,559 --> 00:25:04,240 was our thirty two. 415 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,839 Speaker 3: Oh well, of course Dutch must have had inside information 416 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:09,799 the very best. 417 00:25:10,799 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 2: After the raid on his club, Dutch went to your 418 00:25:13,039 --> 00:25:15,400 home and beat the devil a lot of author. Well, 419 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,720 why didn't you kill him? The father much have promised 420 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:19,599 to return the money he got frott of it? How 421 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,440 could I have to do that? Author has signed over 422 00:25:22,559 --> 00:25:25,880 practically everything me old to me sure. And then when 423 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,920 Dutch realized he had no chance of recouping, he went 424 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:33,279 to your husband's office and killed him. But in between, Arthur, 425 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,400 in between that I mean, Arthur hired Georgie Kelt. At 426 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,640 the time Kelk located Dutch Author was dead. 427 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,079 Speaker 3: Should I say that I'm sorry? 428 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,880 Speaker 2: Not if you don't feel like it. But you don't 429 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,119 want to let this prejudice you against all man? Oh no, 430 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,839 I won't. No. I know now the type I can handle. 431 00:25:52,839 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 3: When I see one of the other times, I'm going 432 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:56,079 to start running. 433 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,160 Speaker 2: How you recognize the other kindel Oh, that's easy. 434 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:20,519 Speaker 1: Welcome back. It's kind of heartwarming to see that special 435 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:25,319 friendship developed between a hit man and his intended victim. 436 00:26:25,799 --> 00:26:28,400 Even though it did break up, it was really sweet 437 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:33,319 while it lasted. I was dismayed about the Falcon. When 438 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:37,960 he was asking questions about his client's visit to the pawnshop, 439 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,079 he was focused on entirely the wrong thing. It was 440 00:26:41,279 --> 00:26:45,079 all about the gun, but he didn't ask the really 441 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:49,079 pertinent question. Sergeant Corbett said that she drove up to 442 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:53,519 the pawnshop in a blue Sedan. He needed to ask 443 00:26:54,079 --> 00:26:58,119 was it a blue Nash? And I mean, if not, 444 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,680 what was the world coming to in the spring of 445 00:27:00,799 --> 00:27:04,440 nineteen fifty four. Well, one thing that it was coming 446 00:27:04,559 --> 00:27:08,680 to was that Nash was no longer an entity in 447 00:27:08,759 --> 00:27:12,279 its own right as of February, as there had been 448 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:16,799 a merger with Hudson to create the American Motors Company, 449 00:27:17,559 --> 00:27:21,119 and that company, though, did turn out nashes until nineteen 450 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:26,000 fifty seven. And besides that, there were thousands of Nashes 451 00:27:26,079 --> 00:27:30,680 around for all of the characters in The FallCon to 452 00:27:30,759 --> 00:27:34,920 be able to drive. But nevertheless, I can see why 453 00:27:36,079 --> 00:27:41,240 they thought maybe the Nash thing should be abandoned, although 454 00:27:41,279 --> 00:27:43,759 we might be surprised in the final episode of the run. 455 00:27:44,079 --> 00:27:47,400 Who knows it might make a comeback? All right well, 456 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:54,440 listener comments and feedback and then over on YouTube sasof 457 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:58,640 rits in on the case of the Fated Rose, Adam, 458 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,319 if you're serious about showing up in a blue Nash 459 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,480 next week, we sure to get one with the high 460 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:09,400 dramatic transmission and a lift to start gearshift. I think 461 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,599 that you'll lock the way it drives. Well, thanks so much. 462 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:18,200 I'm much more of a look fondly and appreciatively at 463 00:28:18,319 --> 00:28:23,039 classic cars guy rather than a drives them sort. I 464 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:27,599 have thought about doing some things for the podcast that 465 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:33,480 time to the real life origins, like recording a podcast 466 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:37,759 of the Lux Radio Theater from the Ricardo Montabon Theater 467 00:28:38,079 --> 00:28:43,039 in Los Angeles where the Lux Radio Theater was originally performed. 468 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,680 And one of my favorite things I would love to 469 00:28:45,759 --> 00:28:50,480 do is when we do Voyage of the Scarlet Queen, 470 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,720 to find someone who has a boat black would have 471 00:28:53,799 --> 00:28:56,440 been used in the series and record the first couple 472 00:28:56,519 --> 00:28:59,000 of episodes from the deck of the ship. I'm not 473 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:05,559 certain that is even tactical from an acoustics standpoint. But again, 474 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,240 thanks so much. Appreciate the comments say us off, as 475 00:29:08,319 --> 00:29:12,359 well as the car recommendation.
