This was a time when TV was still in its infancy and radio was in its creative heyday- using top writers and top talent to capture huge audiences, and shows featuring hard boiled detectives like Sam Spade, Richard Diamond, Philip Marlowe, and Johnny Dollar competed for prime time with mental sleuths like Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot, G.K. Chesterton's Father Brown, and Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes. And here you'll find standouts -like Dragnet's Joe Friday, Vincent Price's 'The Saint', and Michael Waring's free-lance troubleshooting investigator 'The Falcon'- to name a few. We release new episodes every Sunday at 5pm ET. We're a proud part of 1001 Stories Network. www.1001storiespodcast.com.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-03T08:29:05.147245+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/1001-radio-crime-solvers-5874010"},"episode":{"title":"THE ARCHEOLOGIST and BODYGUARD OF THE LATE ROBERT W.

As Johnny digs deeper, he finds that the threats are very real, and the motives behind them are…","meta_description":"🎙️ SHOW NOTES — 1001 Radio Crime Solvers Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar: \"The Archeologist Matter\" A Missing Scientist, a Desert Dig, and a Discovery Someone…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":3405,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/1001-radio-crime-solvers-5874010/episodes/the-archeologist-and-bodyguard-of-the-late-robert-w-perry/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/1001-radio-crime-solvers-5874010/the-archeologist-and-bodyguard-of-the-late-robert-w-perry.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
