Larry Groebe wanted to do a "very special episode" for the finale of the fifth season. Starting with recreating what is not only a lost episode, but an entirely lost show from some of the earliest days of network radio. "Wayfaring Men" is pretty much an unknown, undocumented show... a dramatic 1933 summer serial from CBS about the lives of the hoboes, tramps, and bums who were so numerous during the Great Depression. Not a single recording of the show exists, and there's almost no background inf...
This episode of Sunday Showcase presents two horror stories: "1965 Ford Falcon," about a haunted car with a tragic past, and "Lifetime Supply of Paperclips," where a contest winner receives increasingly disturbing deliveries. Both stories explore themes of obsession, control, and the unsettling horrors lurking beneath the surface of everyday life. Listener discretion is advised due to mature themes.

Project Audion brings you "The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes," recreating an episode which has remained unheard for eighty years. There's no more famous detective, real or imagined, than Holmes. His creator, Arthur Conan Doyle, pretty much defined the mystery-detective story, and 138 years later Holmes and Watson are still part of popular culture. In 1945, Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce portrayed them weekly on the Mutual Radio network. Our selected script (which aired only once, on January ...
