The Big List of Detective Old Time Radio Shows

I get asked a lot about what shows we're going to play as replacements in the line up become necessary, so I decided to make a list of the shows I would like to do, the shows I'm not going to do and those I'm not sure about. If there's another detective show that's not on the list, please leave it in the comments or call the show at 208-991-GR8D (4783).

The only shows that I will consider are either American made shows or shows made for American syndication that were produced before February 15, 1972.

I also vote in favor of Casey Crime Photographer (I’m sure you know it has a few other titles as well.) You said today that it helps you to have listeners comment. There are a few others under that same catagory that I also like, but I’m very groggy at the moment and need to make sure I don’t mix up titles before I say which ones. I’ll let you know which I liked later, if you want. Thanks for the great job you do!
