Show Notes

Our thanks to Scott for suggesting “Yours Truly, Jack the Ripper” from Mystery Playhouse! The series, hosted by Peter Lorre, re-purposed other radio series (in this case Molle Mystery Theater) for the Armed Forces Network. This particular episode was an adaptation of a short story by Robert Bloch about a hunt for London’s notorious killer in 1945 Chicago! Could Jack the Ripper still be claiming victims over fifty years after his (or her!) reign of terror in London? Can this bloodthirsty killer ever be caught? What dark magic grants Joshua the time management powers to read short stories? Listen for yourself and find out!
