Episode 515: The Whistler: Death Sees Double

This week, John Tefteller and radio historian Dr. Joe Webb continue our Whistler series with a terrific 1944 episode titled "Death Sees Double." At the center of the story are identical twin sisters whose lives are torn apart by jealousy. One of them is determined to take over the other's life, including the man she loves, but things don't unfold quite the way she planned. John and Joe spotlight the incredible double performance of Lurene Tuttle, playing both sisters. They also talk about the talent of Golden Age radio performers, who often delivered complex, polished performances with very little rehearsal. There is a show notes website! Dr. Joe has created a site dedicated to this series! https://sites.google.com/view/whistlershownotes/home  Visit our website: https://goodolddaysofradio.com/ Subscribe to our Facebook Group for news, discussions, and the latest podcast: https://www.facebook.com/groups/881779245938297 Our theme music is "Why Am I So Romantic?" from Animal Crackers: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KHJKAKS/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_MK8MVCY4DVBAM8ZK39WD
