Give Granger credit for getting under Jake's skin. 449 00:30:04,279 --> 00:30:08,079 Beyond that he's helping in this case by the laid 450 00:30:08,839 --> 00:30:12,480 criminal keeping everything close at hand. I would not keep 451 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,319 a hot sixty thousand dollars in a hotel room. It'd 452 00:30:16,359 --> 00:30:20,880 be there are so many ways that could be discovered, 453 00:30:21,599 --> 00:30:25,359 even without Granger coming along. It'd be far smarter to 454 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,920 have had the hired killer drop it off at a 455 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,200 locker where it'd be secure and where no one would 456 00:30:32,279 --> 00:30:33,200 know to. 457 00:30:33,319 --> 00:30:33,799 Speaker 4: Look for it. 458 00:30:34,039 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 1: But not quite as convenient for our plot. It was 459 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:41,240 also nice to hear some ads from the era. Even 460 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:45,000 military recruitment ads capture a bit of the times, and 461 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,359 you get to hear how service in the Air Force 462 00:30:48,599 --> 00:30:53,960 was being pitched, particularly to women. Listener comments and feedback. 463 00:30:54,119 --> 00:30:57,839 Now and we go to Spotify where Wenix sixty six 464 00:30:58,039 --> 00:31:06,640 comments regarding the episode A marriage Minded Girl, horrible pun indedu.

And I'm not saying that there wasn't 469 00:31:23,799 --> 00:31:27,359 a little bit of cheesiness occasionally at the end of 470 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:35,200 nineteen fifties detective shows, but something like the all met 471 00:31:35,319 --> 00:31:38,640 at tonight the end of tonight's episode, Yeah, that's a 472 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,480 bit over the top for the era, but it's one 473 00:31:41,519 --> 00:31:45,000 of the few flaws of the series, beyond the sound quality, 474 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:49,200 which is based on the copies we have.
