Dragnet , the brainchild of Jack Webb, may very well be the most well-remembered, and the best, radio police drama series. From September, 1949 through February 1957, Dragnet 's 30 minute shows, broadcast on NBC, brought to radio true police stories in a low-key, documentary style. The origins of Dragnet can be traced to a semi-documentary film, "He Walked by Night" from 1948, in which Webb had a small role. Both employed the same Los Angeles Police Department technical adviser, used actual poli...

He had a streak of impatience, and would occasionally not fully listen to a witness and rush off on a tangent before realizing his mistake. Th...

Our first episode today is short, and the last few minutes are a little rough, so keep in mind it was taped August 9th, 1944 on an island somewhere in the heat of the Pacific War. It was labeled "Somewhere in the Pacific", and...
