Another journey into the realm of the strange and terrifying.

I hope you will enjoy the trip that it will thrill you a little and chill you a little.

So settle back. Get a good grip on your nerves.

Where are we going? You'll find out when we get there.

How's it going out there, everybody? So glad to have you back here on the podcast. And as we hit episode number 50 today, I've got a good one for you today from the CBS Radio Mystery Theater.

And it's called Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

This is their adaptation.

This is their rendition of this classic story by Robert Lewis Stevenson.

This was episode number 107 of the CBS Radio Theater.

The first run was on June 18, 1974.

There was a repeat on September 4th, 1974. There was a repeat on January 8th, 1978, and a repeat on July

7th, 1979. The writer for this particular adaptation of the play is George Lothar.

George Lothar was the narrator for a time on the Old Time Radio Superman show of the 1940s.

A little bit of interesting information there.

The actors in today's play are Kevin McCarthy,

Marion Seldis, Court Benson, and Ian Martin. Kevin McCarthy is the star player today as Dr.

Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. So I'm going to talk about him a little bit, and then we'll get right into it.

All right, so Kevin McCarthy was born February 15th, 1914.

He was an American actor who gave over 200 television and film performances.

He is best remembered for portraying the male lead role in the horror science fiction film Invasion of the Body Snatchers of

1956.

Following several television guest roles, he gave his first credited film performance in Death of a Salesman of 1951.
