    Hey Friends! I'm back with one of the most popular episodes of The Whistler titled "Quiet Sunday" originally aired on June 10, 1946

    🎙️Episode description: This was going to be a quiet Sunday for Henry Parker, peaceful, calm, restful, away from the work and tedium of the office. Just the kind of Sunday Henry always looked forward to during the other hectic days of the week. And more than that, it was a special Sunday, for Henry's wife, Ruth, who was vacationing at their lodge at Lake Arrowhead and wouldn't be home.

    That was the best part. It was nice to wake up and not find Ruth there to nag and irritate him. And it was nice, too, to remember that tonight he had a date with Daphne. Daphne was tall and lovely, and Daphne seemed to understand that Henry liked to spend a nice quiet evening. He was contemplating all this when the doorbell rang.

    FYI: I introduce the key players before the curtain rises, helping you keep track of who’s who. After the show, stick around for my commentary on the twists, the characters, what was happening during the time of the episode's premiere.

For money was all-important to Paul Benton and some of Cynthia’s was almost within grasp as he carefully urged things along, increasing the tide of Cynthia’s emotions and urging her to the brink of murdering his wife.

    Hey Friends!

    I'm back with one of the most popular episodes of The Whistler titled "Last Message." Episode description:

    🎙️Only a few days before, Dave Leonard had told himself that there was no place quite like San Francisco. It was thrilling to be a part of it, the hills, the bay, the clanging cable cars. Only a few days before, Dave had been happy with his job, his surroundings, his home and his wife, and now suddenly that was all changed - wiped away somehow.

After the show, stick around for my commentary on the twists, the characters, and why this story of deception and consequences still resonates today.

  • The Whistler Podcast With Your Host Mel - This Episode: "The Thin Line" Originally Aired On January 7, 1946
    2025/09/13

    Episode description: It’s a thin line that separates infatuation from hate. So thin and fragile that one can change in to the other in a split second. Mark Mahler would agree now that the line was a thin one if he were alive. But he didn’t discover it until too late. That was the trouble with Mark he always discovered things too late. When he discovered that marrying an old woman for her money doesn’t lead to happiness it was too late. When he discovered he was in love with Artise Mayo, her pretty companion it was too late.

    I will be hosting episodes weekly of The Whistler (and other shows in the future) and sharing some facts about the show, the writers and the radio stars that were instrumental in making this show the top rated mystery series during it's run from 1942-1955. Step into the shadows as I revisit the episode “The Thin Line” originally aired on January 7, 1946
