Episode 666 - All the Write Moves: Raymond Chandler (Suspense, Mollé Mystery Theatre, & Philip Marlowe)

from Down These Mean Streets (Old Time Radio Detectives)

For May, we're spotlighting authors whose works inspired old time radio mysteries. First up is Raymond Chandler - best known for creating the iconic Los Angeles gumshoe Philip Marlowe. We'll hear a pair of Chandler's Marlowe stories adapted for radio - "Trouble is My Business" with Van Heflin (originally aired on NBC on August 5, 1947) and "Red Wind" with Gerald Mohr (originally aired on CBS on September 26, 1948). Plus, we'll hear adaptations of two other Chandler mysteries: "Pearls are a Nuisance" from Suspense (originally aired on CBS on April 19, 1945) and "Murder in the City Hall" from The Mollé Mystery Theatre (originally aired on NBC on April 5, 1946).
