Summary
CBS Radio Mystery Theater presents “The Aliens,” episode 448, originally broadcast on March 15, 1976. Written by Sam Dann and directed by Himan Brown, this Cold War mystery stars Paul Hecht and Mandel Kramer. An American agent and his Soviet counterpart become unwillingly linked by psychic communication tied to classified experiments on opposite sides of the Iron Curtain. As the contact intensifies, espionage, secrecy, and a far-reaching threat test the loyalties of both men. CBS Radio Mystery Theater presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
