Hopalong Cassidy
Hopalong Cassidy is a cowboy hero, created in 1904 by Clarence E. Mulford, who wrote a series of popular stories and twenty-eight novels. (At the time Mulford invented the character, the name of the historical American outlaw Butch Cassidy had been before readers of newspapers in recent years.)
In his early print appearances, the character appears as a rude, dangerous and rough-talking "galoot". Beginning in 1935, the character, played by William Boyd, was transformed into the clean-cut hero of a series of 66 immensely popular films, only a few of which relied on Mulford's works for more than the character. Mulford actually rewrote his earlier stories to fit the movie conception; these led in turn to a comic book series modeled after the films. Click title to listen to programs >

Frankenstein
This 1931 serial was produced by George Edwards, also producer and star of the 1932 version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and Corsican Brothers. Baron Victor Frankenstein, genius and mad scientist, believes that he can create a living man from dead bodies. A rare example of early radio drama that is faithful to the original story by Mary Shelley. Ellery Queen
Ellery Queen is both a fictional character and a pseudonym used by two American cousins from Brooklyn, New York: Daniel Nathan, alias Frederic Dannay (October 20, 1905–September 3, 1982[1]) and Manford (Emanuel) Lepofsky, alias Manfred Bennington Lee (January 11, 1905–April 3, 1971), to write detective fiction. In a successful series of novels that covered 42 years, Ellery Queen served as both author's name and that of the detective-hero. During the 1930s and much of the 1940s, that detective-hero was possibly the best known American fictional detective. On radio, The Adventures of Ellery Queen was heard on all three networks from 1939 to 1948.
Calling All Cars
Calling All Cars is a classic among police dramas and one of the earliest of the genres. Believed to be a precursor to the popular police drama Dragnet, Calling All Cars portrayed the true crime stories of the Los Angeles Police Department.
