Episode #353: 10 More Great Adventure Stories: A Letter To Jason

from The Good Old Days of Radio Show · host John Tefteller

Today’s adventure pick is from radio’s greatest adventure series, “Escape.” The story is about a man, Jason (played by Frank Lovejoy), who is hired by his uncle to assassinate Jake Finch in the South Seas. The problem: Jason is a hopelessly trapped alcoholic. John talks about Escape's significance, despite its budget constraints. And there’s a special surprise at the tail end of the show, with a marvelous exchange between Gracie Allen and Paul Frees.
