Welcome back to Case closed, your weekly hour of old-time radio crime Wednesdays at RelicRadio.com.

We're going to start off this week with Philip Marlow and hear The Dark Tunnel, his story from August 18, 1950.

That'll be followed by the adventures of Sam Spade and the Bluebeard Caper.

That episode originally aired August 8th, 1948.
