One show that’s been requested that we won’t be able to do on our podcast because of a lack of complete story lines is Perry Mason. However, a modern radio drama version of Perry Mason has been released by the Colonial Radio Theater in Boston based on the original stories by Erle Stanley Gardener.
Two of these sets are available through Audible for $3.91 (for audible members) but only through March 29 at 11 a.m. at which point they’ll return to the normal price of $4.89 each, which is still a pretty good deal compared to some of the BBC Sets out there.
I’ve not listened to the Perry Mason sets myself (though I did pick them up as part of the sale), but I have listened Colonial Theater’s Father Brown set which was a very nice professional adaptation, and I look forward to listening to the Perry Mason. Below are the dramas of interest:
Perry Mason and the Case of the Sulky Girl
Perry Mason and the Case of the Velvet Claws
The Blue Cross, The Secret Garden, The Queer Feet, and The Arrow of Heaven: The Father Brown Mysteries
Welcome to the Great Detectives of Old Time Radio. We will feature six of Old Time Radio's great detectives from the beginning of the career to the very last episode in existence with a new episode posted Monday-Saturday.
In addition, twice a month, we'll post a public domain movie or TV mystery or detective show as a bonus.
Along the way, I'll provide you my commentary and offer you opportunities to interact. This is going to be fun and exciting. I hope you'll join me for the trip.
