Episode 566 - Under the Big Top (Crime Club, Let George Do It, Bulldog Drummond, & Harry Lime)
Down These Mean Streets (Old Time Radio Detectives) - A podcast by Mean Streets Podcasts
Children (and mystery fans) of all ages - join us this week for a quartet of old time radio capers set at the circus. First, a lion tamer is caught in a lethal love triangle in "Serenade Macabre" from Crime Club (originally aired on Mutual on July 24, 1947). Next, Bob Bailey is hired to protect a trapeze artist who's receiving threats in "A Piece of Publicity" from Let George Do It (originally aired on Mutual on June 14, 1948). A trip to the circus leads Bulldog Drummond to "Death Under the Big Top" (originally aired on Mutual on July 7, 1948), and Orson Welles hunts a war criminal in "Harry Joins the Circus" from The Lives of Harry Lime.
