Episode 154 - The Big Apple Matter (Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar)
Down These Mean Streets (Old Time Radio Detectives) - A podcast by Mean Streets Podcasts
In 1960, CBS moved production of Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar to New York. Longtime leading man Bob Bailey stayed behind, and the network tapped another Bob - Bob Readick - to fill the shoes of the man with the action-packed expense account. Readick, an actor since childhood, starred as Dollar from December 1960 to June 1961 as the show embarked on a new era on the East Coast. We’ll hear Bob Readick as Johnny Dollar in “The Lone Wolf Matter,” originally aired on May 21, 1961.
