The Welcome to the great detectives of old time radio. In a moment, I'm going to bring you our latest

support slash appreciation detective program special

but first I do want to encourage you

if you're enjoying the podcast

to follow us using your favorite

podcast software

and as a reminder for our listener support

and appreciation campaign you can become

one of our ongoing Patreon supporters

for as little as $2 per month

by going to patreon.gratedetactives.net. Well, it's time for us to bring you another

twice-told tale, and we're focusing on a script by Bob Tallman. Paulman, with Gildow, wrote for The Adventures of Sam Spade and did a lot of radio work,

including working on Voyage of the Scarlet Queen.

Now, as usual, we will take a look at a script he wrote and then see how it was recycled on another program down the line.

First off from August 1st of 1948, here is Sam Spade and the Dry Martini Keeper.

The Adventures of Sam Spade, Detective,

brought to you by Wild Root Cream Oil Hair Tonic,

the non-alcoholic hair tonic that contains lanyl.

Wild Root cream oil again and again,

the choice of men who put good grooming first.

The... Sam's a detective agency.

Me, sweetheart.
