Boxcars711 Old Time Radio Pod - Pat Novak For Hire "Gambling Ring" (8-03-47)

Gambling Ring (Aired August 3, 1947)


Pat Novak, played by Jack Webb, was a private detective working out of Pier 19, a waterfront office in San Francisco. The stories were always very similar: Someone would hire him, (if not a beautiful woman, the job would lead to a beautiful woman) someone would get murdered, he would investigate the case, get beaten up by the thugs, and then the case would be solved and end with glorious violence. The closing was always the same; the listener would be told who had done what, to whom and why they had done it. First Broadcast 1946. Last Broadcast on June 18, 1949.
