We have a channel that plays old black and white mysteries on Sunday morning. More specifically, they play vintage Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce Sherlock Holmes movies. And while I didn’t grow up when these shows were shown in theaters, these two characters when my first introduction to mysteries and remain my favorite two actors in these roles. (although hat tip to Martin Freeman who made Watson into something other than a bumbling fool).

As they also play movies from the golden age of Hollywood, I wondered if perhaps I should explore another form of entertainment from that by-gone era: Radio shows.

Now, I don’t know much about any particular show, but I’ve decided I wanted to start with mystery series and have been looking at shows on CDs (they don’t seem to come in digital downloads). A variety pack seems the best place to start, but I’m open to suggestions.

If anyone has a favorite, please drop me a line and let me know.

Until next time!
