CasaDeMaza Presents Boston Blackie https://otr.casademaza.com/podcasts/casademaza-presents-boston-blackie/ Step back into the golden age of radio with Boston Blackie, the quick-witted detective who once lived on the other side of the law. Created by Jack Boyle as a hard-edged safecracker, Blackie became a legendary figure in film, radio, and television—a friend to those with no friend, and an enemy to those who make him one. The Boston Blackie radio series debuted on NBC on June 23, 1944, starring Chester Morris, and quickly captured audiences with its sharp mysteries and clever banter. Sponsored by Rinso and featuring Lesley Woods as Mary Wesley, the show blended crime, charm, and wit in equal measure. In 1945, Richard Kollmar took over the role for a syndicated run that lasted through October 1950, producing more than 200 episodes. Along the way, Blackie tangled with Inspector Farraday (Maurice Tarplin), exchanged sharp lines with Mary, and relied on his pal Shorty to stay one step ahead of the law. Whether he’s cracking safes or solving murders, Boston Blackie remains one of radio’s most charismatic sleuths. Tune in for clever plots, snappy wordplay, and a master class in classic detective storytelling.
