THE MODEL PICTURE MATTER and THE ALKALI MIKE MATTER YOURS TRULY JOHNNY DOLLAR

🎙️ SHOW NOTES — 1001 Radio Days Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar Starring Bob Bailey as the man with the action-packed expense account This week we bring you two classic Dollar cases — one steeped in the glamorous world of modeling and deception, the other set against the dusty backdrop of the American West. Both showcase Johnny at his best: sharp, relentless, and always one step ahead of trouble.   📸 Episode 1: "The Model Picture Matter" A high‑priced insurance policy on a rising fashion model draws Johnny Dollar into a world of beauty, ambition, and dangerous secrets. When a seemingly routine claim raises red flags, Johnny is sent to investigate — and quickly discovers that the glamorous surface hides a tangle of jealousy, manipulation, and a threat far more serious than a broken contract. As Johnny interviews agents, photographers, and rivals, he uncovers a trail that leads straight into the darker corners of the modeling business. A stylish, tightly woven mystery where every pose hides a motive — and every picture tells a story someone doesn't want revealed.   🤠 Episode 2: "The Alkali Mike Matter" Johnny heads west to investigate a claim involving a rough‑and‑tumble character known as Alkali Mike, a man whose reputation is as dusty as the desert he calls home. What begins as a simple inquiry into a questionable policy quickly turns into a full‑blown case involving frontier grudges, hidden dangers, and a cast of characters who'd rather settle things with fists than facts. Johnny must navigate saloons, ranch hands, and a few old‑fashioned Western tempers as he pieces together the truth behind Alkali Mike's troubles. A lively, atmospheric episode that blends classic Dollar detective work with the grit and charm of the Old West.   🤠 ENJOYING THE SHOW? HELP US GROW!
