Jeff Regan had some of the best detective writing in radio and Jack Webb was wonderful. I guess Red is still waiting for that drink in the first episode.
Jeff Reagan. Pat Novak for Hire and Johnny Maderno are three programs with Jack Webb and represent the best iconic hard boiled detective radio shows. They still resonate today and I never tire of listening to them.
I noticed that a couple of these stories were redone by Johnny Dollar ( Bob Bailey) and William Conrad played the same role in both The diamond quartet ... And on the Johnny Dollar version...
Yeah I've noticed a few shows would duplicate scripts. It's still fin to hear it retold with the different detectives. Johnny Dollar was on so long they would even redo their old shows!
Ok so I was confused. It's not Pat Novak that worked for the Lyon, it was Jeff Regan. How many detectives DID Webb play? Why he never did comedy or romance? Too bad. M
Following his discharge, he moved to San Francisco, where a wartime shortage of announcers led to a temporary appointment to his own radio show on ABC's KGO Radio.[9] The Jack Webb Show was a half-hour comedy that had a limited run on ABC radio in 1946. Prior to that, he had a one-man program, One Out of Seven, on KGO in which he dramatized a news story from the previous week.[3] By 1949, he had abandoned comedy for drama, and starred in Pat Novak, for Hire, a radio show originating from KFRC about a man who worked as an unlicensed private detective. The program co-starred Raymond Burr. Pat Novak was notable for writing that imitated the hard-boiled style of such writers as Raymond Chandler, with lines such as: "She drifted into the room like 98 pounds of warm smoke. Her voice was hot and sticky-like a furnace full of marshmallows." Early in 1949, Webb served as the main antagonist of Alan Ladd's protagonist character Dan Holliday in "The Better Man" episode of the radio series "Box 13", which aired on January 2, 1949. Webb's radio shows included Johnny Madero, Pier 23, Jeff Regan, Investigator, Murder and Mr. Malone, Pete Kelly's Blues, and One Out of Seven. Webb provided all of the voices on One Out of Seven, often vigorously attacking racial prejudice. Webb's most famous motion-picture role was as the combat-hardened Marine Corps drill instructor at Parris Island in the 1957 film The D.I., with Don Dubbins as a callow Marine private. Webb's hard-nosed approach to this role, that of Drill Instructor Technical Sergeant James Moore, would be reflected in much of his later acting.
With much assistance from Sgt. Marty Wynn and legendary LAPD chief William H. Parker, Dragnet premiered on NBC Radio in 1949 and ran till 1957. It was also picked up as a television series by NBC, which aired episodes each season from 1952 to 1959. Webb played Sgt. Joe Friday and Barton Yarborough co-starred as Sgt. Ben Romero. After Yarborough's death, Ben Alexander joined the cast.[13]
@@renegade7493 HolyMOly. That's a LOT of work. Can we find any episodes of the comedy show you mentioned? Or any others like 1 /out of 7? Those seem to be rare? Have you ever heard any? This is fantastic. Really. M
Another strange yet compelling female tells Regan, "I'm lonely" to which he says nothing. Ha ha That's what the love of my life did when I too said, "Im lonely" from me in Costa Rica to him in Catalina Island off the California coast. I didnt say anything back at the time then lost my chance forever.
Loved the way people dressed in the video that plays. People had a style that we've sadly lost.
Thank you ð
Love Jack Webb in all the incarnations! Great stream, many thanks!!
Glad you enjoyed it

Thanks for tuning in! This is one of my favorite shows too! Great acting! Duff was amazing.
No matter what Jack Webb did, he always had the wildest lines. He played this role from July 10, 1948 to December 18, 1948.

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for tuning in!
Just the facts ma'am..
I really am stuck on these old time radio shows ð. I've put my tv away because there's nothing worth watching! ð
You and me both! thanks for tuning in!
Cool
It would be hilarious if he could have redone Dragnet with these wise cracks.
These golden age radio detectives should wear football helmets. They get knocked out with a blow to the head in almost every episode!
Any idea HOW they made those accompanying sounds of fists hitting faces??
Jack Webb and Barton Yarbrough will be a Great Team in Dragnet.

Yess I was hoping for this after last night
Glad you like it! Thanks for tuning in!
Regan told the strange woman, "I'm waiting for a man." She replied , "So am I" He asked, "Been waiting long?"

Ha, the unknown girl gushes, "You're cute," to Reagan. "Yes I am" he answers

Anyone know why Jack departed this winning show??

Or leading man roles. He never got the girl but did marry a beauty in Julie London

Way too bad that todays language is no longer colorful as it was long ago with words like dame and tomato
Jack says to the girl he doesnt even know.....It's about your face....She asks What about my face? Nothing, its a beautiful face.

Oh no! That pesky organist found his way over here too. Did listeners really enjoy that noise back in the day?
Annoying as hell ...sounds like a 4-year-old playing the organ
yes
Yeah me too. Dump the crazy organ
$10 a day pay he tips people $5 for information. Better to know something.
He must run it through his expense account....
Webb tells the Lion, Now look. I've done a lot of dirty rotten things for you....hahaha
Jack pronounces Los Angeles Los Angless
They all sound the same to me
You might want to remove all the Q-Tips jammed into your ears...
I asked her to dinner and she said something that meant no...
