Hi,

If anyone would like to help out with the new Mystery Podcast, here is how you can help:

1. Listen to any show on this website. Free shows or members directory is OK.

2. Make sure the show is complete and the sound quality is good.

3. Give a short description of what the show is about.

4. Let me know the name of the show and/or the link to it.

5. Pick a show that is really good and represents the best of OTR. (Our goal is to have the podcast listeners say "Wow, these shows are great. I want to listen to more of these.") Very Happy

6. You can post all this info in this message thread so others can enjoy the shows and your comments too.

I need a good show once a week for our Podcast but I don't just want to go by what I like. I'd like a sampling of everyone's experience and tastes.

After a few months I'll submit it to Itunes and hopefully we'll get the word out to OTR listeners who might enjoy the website.

Thanks for helping to make this site the best it can be. thumbup

Brad

Brad,
I will try to help you with this. It will be very new to me, but it seems like a great way to introduce people to some shows they may not have listened to.
I really appreciate all the time you have taken to upload so many great shows.

Shirley

Sherlock Holmes solved this case without meeting with any of the suspects. He was attempting to retire to his bee farm when the case became irresistible. Listen to the show to find out what these scientists were doing with radium and why all of them disappeared.

I would like to add that if anyone else in this forum would like to help Brad with this project, I would be thrilled. Listening to these shows is great, but sharing our thoughts and knowledge with each other adds to the enjoyment. Join in the fun!

Shirley

When the body of a man is discovered in a freezer dressed in a devil costume, why isn't it reported to the police? And, just where did the body go when Candy Matson tries to show it to the police? Listen to Devil in the Deep Freeze and find out.

Here's my first review:

Mystery In The Air: 'The Black Cat'

This mostly faithful adaption of Edgar Allen Poe's classic tale of intemperance, murder, and supernatural justice features the unmistakable voice talent of Peter Lorre in the starring role. Lorre is at his manic best as he draws the listener along on his journey into madness at the hands--or should we say paws--of a mysterious ebony feline named 'Pluto'.

Mystery In The Air was an limited-run anthology series, which originally aired in the summer of 1947. Each episode featured Peter Lorre in a different spooky or suspenseful tale, "culled from the pages of world literature". Mystery In The Air only ran for eight episodes, but each is an audio gem in its own right.

OK. The Black Cat is in the podcast. Thanks Human. Great job!

I've been listening to Box 13 lately and found this show interesting, so Idecided to share it.

Box_13_49-01-09__21__The_Professor_And_The_Puzzle. A friend of Dan Holiday's who was teaching at a college was engaged to be married when suddenly his fiance's uncle "committed suicide" and she called the engagement off and was determined to marry someone much older than she was. Listen and find out what the uncle was involved in and who found out and how the tangled mess got solved.

Enjoy!

It's time for a new podcast mystery show. Would anyone like to recommend a good mystery show they have listened too. One with good sound quality would be a plus.

Thanks,

Brad

How about this one:

Voyage of the Scarlet Queen: "Shore Leave and the Unhappy Wife"

Broadcast in the late 1940s, this adventure series centers around the travels of a tramp steamer called The Scarlet Queen to exotic ports of call in the Pacific. The show's use of the ship's log as a narrative device is reminiscent of Star Trek and may well be where Gene Roddenberry lifted the idea from. The stories themselves are a pleasing mix of swashbuckling Indiana Jones and hard-boiled detective, liberally seasoned with saltwater for flavoring.

In this episode, the ship is chartered for a lucrative voyage, but before she can set sail, the first mate is accused of murder and it is up to the captain to prove his innocence.

Good choice.
I discovered Rocky Jordan last year but was thrilled with it when I did. This little known show deserves a bigger following.

The Shadow-Temple bells of Nebum

The shadow goes up against a group selling drugs, one of which (a woman of india) holds the key to exposing the secrets of The Shadow. Will the Shadow bring the drug sellers to justice, or will the Shadow fall into shadow?
