Episode 620 - Fool Me Once (Sherlock Holmes, Box 13, Philip Marlowe, & Broadway is My Beat)

Down These Mean Streets (Old Time Radio Detectives)

In honor of April Fool's Day, our radio detectives this week have to contend with some practical jokes and jokers that are anything but funny. Dr. Watson is enlisted to pull a prank on Sherlock Holmes in "The April Fool's Day Adventure," starring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce (originally aired on Mutual on April 1, 1946). Dan Holiday tries to find a deranged jokester before his antics turn deadly in "Death is No Joke" from Box 13. A fake will reading turns into a real crime scene as Philip Marlowe hunts for a killer in "The Last Laugh" (originally aired on CBS on April 2, 1949), and Detective Danny Clover has to find out who killed a celebrated prankster in "Laugh-a-Minute Tyler" from Broadway is My Beat (originally aired on March 14, 1953).
