The Adventures of Sam Spade -- The Vaphio Cup Caper
One of our all time favorite series, Sam Spade was well acted, well produced and well written. The character is really nothing like the Bogart movie in that the radio character had more charm, wit and humor than the film. The Adventures of Sam Spade featuring Howard Duff in the lead role, and sponsored by Wildroot Hair Oil.
Enjoy this episode entitled The Vaphio Cup Caper broadcast on August 2, 1948.

Abbott & Costello -- Nuts & Bolts
Ah, the sound of laughter, music to the comedian's ear. Few jokesters ever heard more of this music than the tandem of Bud Abbott and Lou Costello. Outrageously popular on stage, in film, TV and especially on the radio, this, the original odd couple, dominated sketch comedy for years. They never brought their private difficulties, which were many, into public view, sparing their fans the drama and sorrows of their own lives. Too bad this ethos is long lost in Hollywood.
Enjoy this hilarious episode from the program that made them world figures, The Abbott & Costello Show!
