Fantastic for listening while at work!

I love listening to this In it’s Authentic form, with both headphones in you’re immersed in the world of Phillip Marlowe, highly enjoyable if you’re a fan of the dime detective and black mask magazines of the past.

Treating radio right

This is classic radio the way it should be done. It’s been edited and remastered skillfully, keeping all the flavor but losing the effects of time and old technology. Commercials have been cut, but there’s still a nod to the break, because that shaped these old scripts.
This is not timeless drama; it is a product of a certain historical moment and the scripts show their age. They were not created for binge-listening; half an hour once a week was the dosage. Their predictability was important to building and keeping an audience. Given that, there’s quite a bit of variety in the settings and the crimes.
Highly recommended for nostalgic listeners and curious researchers.

Philip Marlowe

Philip Marlow's full series is an excellent radio show and represented by primary actors. I found this book to be great fun and bring back old memories to the radio shows.

Lots of fun mysteries

Enjoyed every minute. Worth the price. Would recommend for anyone who enjoys nostalgia .
