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 MONKEY'S UNCLE and THE VITAL STATISTIC   ADVENTURES OF PHILIP MARLOWE","slug":"the-monkey-s-uncle-and-the-vital-statistic-adventures-of-philip-marlowe","published_at":"2026-08-28T19:45:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/1001-radio-crime-solvers-5874010/the-monkey-s-uncle-and-the-vital-statistic-adventures-of-philip-marlowe","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/1001-radio-crime-solvers-5874010","url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/traffic.libsyn.com/6d90722a-143f-45eb-83cc-2b5ba24978df/ADL9306878360.mp3","audio_url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/traffic.libsyn.com/secure/6d90722a-143f-45eb-83cc-2b5ba24978df/ADL9306878360.mp3?dest-id=4552092","summary":"The Adventures of Philip Marlowe was a radio series featuring Raymond Chandler's private eye, Philip Marlowe. Robert C. Reinehr and Jon D. Swartz, in their book, The A to Z of Old Time Radio , noted that the program differed from most others in its genre: \"It was a more hard-boiled program than many of the other private detective shows of the time, containing few quips or quaint characters.\" In 1948, the series moved to CBS, where it was called The Adventure of Philip Marlowe , with Gerald Mohr playing Marlowe. This series also began with an adaptation of \"Red Wind\", using a script different from the NBC adaptation. By 1949, it had the largest audience in radio. The CBS version ran for 114 episodes. That series ran 26 September 1948 – 29 September 1950..","meta_description":"The Adventures of Philip Marlowe was a radio series featuring Raymond Chandler's private eye, Philip Marlowe. Robert C.
