- * SHAME ON RUSSIA - GET OUT OF UKRAINE!
MAY YOUR GODLESS ARMY DIE SLOWLY, & ROT IN HELL! WE SPIT ON YOU! *
Columbo: CANDIDATE FOR CRIME / Season 1, Episode 3 / / after faking a series of death threats against himself - senatorial candidate Nelson Hayward (Jackie Cooper) murders his own campaign manager.
To throw off the investigation - the candidate stages it to look like the gunman intended to kill the candidate himself, but mistakenly killed his campaign manager instead.
==============
"THEATRE OF THE MIND". Give your eyes a few hours off, and take it all in, through your ears! :-)
Produced by Project Wasabi - this audio programme is based on Columbo season 1, episode 3 - "Candidate for Crime", featuring the voices of Peter Falk, Jackie Cooper and Katey Sagal.
= = = = = = = = =
Listen to a crime story while working in a different tab! Also good while cleaning house, folding clothes, long drives, or working out at the gym.
My contribution to this audio podcast is the accompanying Narration - writing, recording, editing, & weaving it into the existing TV soundtrack - altogether this project took me 2½ months, and I absolutely loved every second of it!
Original episode "Candidate for Crime", written by Larry Cohen, Irv Pearlberg, Alvin R. Friedman, and Roland Kibbee. Directed by Boris Sagal (real life father of Katey Segal who plays Nelson Hayward's secretary).
Based on the character "Columbo", created by Richard Levinson & William Link.
If you enjoyed this audio drama, we invite you to share it on Social Media. :-)

This is cool! Considering that Falk was visually impaired himself, it’s neat that you adapted Columbo in a way that blind fans could enjoy. :D
WOW!! KM - that is such a cool insight! I'd not made that connection - about Peter Falk's glass eye (childhood ocular cancer, i think(?))
The real-life _"Mrs Columbo"_ / Shera Danese is 74 years young, and living in her hometown of Hartsdale, New York. :)
This is utterly nuts. I have been after this sort of thing for ages. Discover Brian's youtube page and there are two columbo narrative audio sessions! Now I will fall asleep for another year or so and fingers crossed Brian will have complied another two episodes... :-)
HEY LUAPWORRAG! I'm delighted! BLESSINGS to you friend! :-)
It's great to be able to hear the classic Columbo stories. The 'Prescription murder' is equally good. My partner doesn't like me reading next to her in bed when she's trying to get to sleep. I put in earphones and listen instead. I love audio books and dramas. I always like the way Columbo acts like something is an afterthought, ''Just one more thing'' . Classic!
YAYYYY ! ! ! ! Blessings Paul - to you and your partner. Since you and I both enjoy a good audio - I humbly invite you to check out my website projectwasabi.com - where you'll find other audio dramas based on Law & Order and also LA Dragnet.
Even if you're not a big fan of the TV shows - they're pretty fun as audio dramas.
But if that doesn't work for you, then that's OK, and you're still welcome to my scotch! :-)
THANK YOU again Paul, for the good words.
Thank you very much for the link. I just had a quick peek and it's definately my kind of thing. I like Law & order but have never seen LA Dragnet. I lived in the US as a kid in the 70's and they used to show the old original Dragnet episodes. I got some on DVD as I find it hilarious. People in England don't have a clue about 'Gilligans Island' or 'The Brady Bunch'(except for the modern film). Moving to England and finding there were only 3 tv channels was a serious shock. I couldn't believe it. Thanks again,
Hey Paul! As you might have noticed - the "Dragnet"s I did were with actor Ed O'Neill as Joe Friday. As much as I prefer Jack Webb - I thought Ed O'Neill did an excellent job. :-)
Paul Eva
Tks He was the Greater !!! Peter Falk. R.I.P.😐😚
I love Columbo! This takes me back to my childhood in the 1970's! I used to enjoy the series with my father. He died in November, 2018. This is so good! Thank you, Brian Newberry!
What a lovely message for me to wake up to. THANK YOU FATIMAH! Since you enjoy *_this_* audio drama, then i humbly invite you to visit my website projectwasabi.com .
You might also enjoy reading the "DESCRIPTION" beneath each TH-cam video. Interesting stuff there too! :-)
There, you'll find many more programmes ( *_not always here on TH-cam_* ).
Fatima my friend; may the soul of your loving father rest in peace. Thanks again for your nice comments - and *_we'll talk to you soon_* .
This is excellent. Thank you for all of your work.
IAN! Thanks for the good words Amigo. If all goes well, our next programme should be out by or before Easter Sunday, 2023. Blessings. :-)
@@BrianNewberry Thanks for the update. I've subscribed to your channel, so hopefully I'll see the new video notification.
Thank you right back@@ragdolly22!
@@herne831 thanks 'Herne'! Sorry i only just now saw your gracious message. We hope to have our next one out around the time Christmas Night kicks off Chanukah 2024.
...and yes! It'll be a COLUMBO! :)
Simply fantastic work, thanks for taking the time to do this. Keep 'um coming!
Hey fourelmscars! I'm glad you heard this one specifically; Of the eight(?) or so audios i've done, t's my personal favourite. Blessings! :)
The internet is not all bad. This is gold.
Thanks for the kind words, Vinnie!
If all goes well, the next programme debuts 28 February 2020, it's non-fiction - and the good guys win!
I've watched every Columbo at least ten times. Your descriptive narration allows me to replay the episodes in my head while driving. It's like a book on tape, but better. Very enjoyable. I've subscribed and "like" each one I listen to. I wish nothing but great success for you and your channel!
Wow, thanks! I cannot tell you how much i appreciate your gracious words. TH-cam carries "some", and there are more at my website, sites.google.com/view/projectwasabi (a.k.a. projectwasabi.com).
If all goes well, our next project will premiere here on TH-cam this coming US Independence Day / 4th of July 2022.
Blessings! - BN
Great to listen to, whilst decorating. Many Thanks Brian.
I LOVE hearing the activities people are doing whilst listening! Driving, cleaning, folding clothes, exercising... even "decorating"! Thanks for your comment Simon. :-)
I didn't know there Colombo audio dramas. As a Colombo fan, I can't tell how excited I was to find this!
ALRIGHT ALEXANDRIA!!! Thank you so much for the good words. From one "Columbo Fan" to another - I humbly invite you to check out my OTHER Columbo audio drama - PRESCRIPTION MURDER - available at PM.projectwasabi.com .
Finally - if all goes well - "MURDER BY THE BOOK" is scheduled to post on April 20th, 2017! :-)
Thanks again Alexandria! Blessings! :-)
These are great. Wish you had more. Love Columbo!
Why Thank You, Dr! :)
If you wish we had more, then we humbly invite you to visit us online at ProjectWasabi.com, where you'll find even MORE of our audio dramas (including at least one more Columbo).
NBC Universal takes down *_some_* of our Columbo episodes - but others (such as _"Candidate for Crime")_ they allow to stay up! :)
But those that are taken down - can be found at our website.
If all goes well - our next programme will be out Fall of 2021, sometime between Halloween & Guy Fawkes Night.
It's not Columbo - but we think you'll like it!
We appreciate your gracious comment. Thanks again, and *_we'll talk to you soon!_* :)
I simply ADORE the Columbo audio dramas!!! Thank you, Brian, and PLEASE do more!
Betty - what a lovely thing to say! Thank you so very much! I hope you'll visit my website projectwasabi.com for more. All completely FREE of course! :)
Another great narrative by yourself. Allows me to listen and re-image the story without the need to sit and watch it. Great to do the housework to.
DUDE - KEITH! I'm honoured; thanks man.
I think this programme, *_Candidate for Crime,_* was my second such audio project(?)
You'll notice I removed Larry Storch's cameo and the DMV Safety Inspector, and i took a few liberties with his encounter at the gas station. Shhh. Don't tell! ;-)
I love Storch - but his scene was too difficult to convey in narration. LoL. Truth be known - or was a little far fetched on TV and darn near impossible (at least for me) to narrate in a way that would sound believable. Wherever Mr Storch is - respectfully, I hope he'll understand!
If all goes well, our next programme is due out this Labor Day / 5 Sept. 2022.
In the meantime, we invite you to check out our website ProjectWasabi.com where you'll find more titles not always available here on TH-cam.
I love hearing what listeners are actually *_doing_* while listening. And you and i are singing from the same score.
For me personally - audio dramas (not just my own) make me more likely to want to get up and actually "do stuff" around the house as i'm listening.
Thanks again for the good words.
Blessings!
This is brilliant. This works great for the visually impaired. I take care of a visually impaired lady and she listens to books on tape, but they don't always come on time. So this is wonderful. Thanks for the time and effort that you took to do this. All the best in your future endeavors.
I am enjoying this myself..!!
What a lovely comment. As much as we enjoy doing these - the audio dramas are produced especially with the vision impaired in mind. So your comment is quite gratifying. Bless you amiga!
If all goes well - our next programme will be out by US Independence Day / 4th of July 2022.
In the meantime we invite you to visit us online at ProjectWasabi.com
Blessings to you & your friend. _Thanks for listening & we'll talk to you soon!"_
I absolutely loved this!!! And Prescription Murder - I haven't been able to find it to watch so your audio drama was my first time with the story!!! Thank you so much and I would love to listen to as many of these as you might want to make!!!!
what a great way to start my evening. Blessings Aliza. For more audio dramas, i hope you'll check out my website ProjectWasabi.com - or you can find "Project Wasabi" on Facebook as well as my TH-cam channel here. Thanks again Amiga. If all goes well - my next story comes out Easter Sunday / April 9th, 2023. Cheers. :D
This is brilliant! This is the best listen ever! For many years I have listened to radio plays but radio directors do not always indicate and describe the action. For anyone with vision problems this must be amazing. Thank you, we are all winners here, please, more of the same, I will watch this space!!
HEY!! HILARY!! I only just now saw your lovely comment; THANK YOU so very much!
Since NBC Universal blocks about half my stuff - i do hope you'll visit us online at sites.google.com/view/projectwasabi There you'll find those "exiles" not available here on TH-cam.
If all goes well, our next programme will premiere here on TH-cam this coming US Independence Day / 4th of July 2022. :)
Thanks again for the good words.
Salud!

@@BrianNewberry Thank you for your reply, I shall be looking out for the next one as I am writing from the UK🇬🇧!!
Hi @@hilarywilkinson9375! For whatever reason, this recent audio drama is taking much longer than I'd hoped.
LOL / now the new release date (we hope) is Christmas 2021 (?)
Blessings! :)
@@BrianNewberry hello! Thank you for your note. I will look out for this….Christmas is a good time for treats! Label the the picture with a banner indicating your new release please. Keep these coming they are so enjoyable 😀🇬🇧 bye for now!
@@hilarywilkinson9375 Next programme should premiere here on TH-cam this coming US Independence Day / 4th of July 2022. ¡SALUD!
Thanks Brian. This is so good. Loved Columbo, love your narration. Great to listen to.
Thank you Mloclam! If you're interested - another Columbo (& other titles too) available at my website - projectwasabi.com - or here at my TH-cam channel! :-)
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Brian, I couldn't believe I found this!!!I've been watching Columbo for 30 years now and wish there was more! Keep up the good work thanks for sharing
GREETINGS FILIPPO!
Thank you so much for the good words! I've done half a dozen other audio dramas which can be heard at projectwasabi.com
Blessings! :)
I love Columbo and the mysteries he solves. His mannerisms are great. Peter Faulke was a great choice of actor for the part of Columbo. :)
Minniekat, I couldn't agree with you more. I was alarmed to discover they'd initially been considering Bing Crosby!
I preferred Peter Falk as Columbo...
Brian Newberry
Don't be afeared of adding your own descriptions , Brian. You are a witty deliverer, and frankly, I am sure COLUMBO has come back to life for many of his 1970's fans, with your truly worthwhile repartee.
THANK YOU SO MUCH CARLENE! "Candidate" is my favourite audio drama, and I'm glad you heard this one especially.
Hola Amiga! Next Columbo premieres THANKSGIVING DAY! "Death Lends A Hand" may or may not be here on TH-cam. But either way - you can hear it at DLH.projectwasabi.com Happy Thanksgiving! :-)
You have a real talent Brain cannot help but think that a lot of people (who love audio books) would see you as a class act. More Columbo's please, in my view one of the best and watchable detective shows of all time.
I totally agree about Columbo being one of the all-time best. :) Thanks too for the good words about my narrating. :)
@@BrianNewberry You're ego probably got a nice little boost, being referred to as Brain, hey Brian.
Absolutely thrilling and brilliantly produced. All the drama and intrigue, rich in detail and so wonderful to just listen to your marvellous narration instead of needing to watch. All so skillfully done. Thank you so much for this. You're a superstar, Mr Newberry.
What a great way to start my morning! *_THANK YOU,_* so much, LD - for your kind words. If all goes well - our next programme premieres Christmas Eve Day! In the meantime, if you'd like to hear our _OTHER_ audio dramas, we hope you'll visit us online at ProjectWasabi.com
Blessings! - BN
@@BrianNewberry I watched the last ten minutes of the actual episode (PEACOCK) and missed your commentary!!! I watch this and the other two almost every day or so. It's ridiculous, I know but you take fantastic episodes and make them even better. Its sarcasm, humor, and subtle commentary are all used to enhance the episode as a trustworthy omniscient narrator.
@@karengarrison4237 - i only just now saw your lovely comment. *THANK YOU SO MUCH!* If all goes well, our next programme should be out Christmas Day / Dec. 25th, 2022. Not Columbo - but i think you'll enjoy it. In the meantime - if you've not already done so, we hope you'll come visit us at ProjectWasabi.com where you'll find more Columbo, as well as other content unavailable here on TH-cam. Thanks again for good words, and as always - *_"We'll Talk To You Soon..."_*
I totally enjoy your voice overs...keep them coming !!!!
+howard greenberg HOWARD! THANKS MAN! You might also enjoy the Description's "Show More" link. Thanks again for the good cheer. :-)
Thanks Brian for your hard work and wonderful productions. Reminds me as a kid listening to the radio dramas before TV.
Hi Zimbag! Only just now saw your friendly note. Thanks for that. My past three programmes have been removed from TH-cam, but they ARE AVAILABLE - free for nuthin' - at my website projectwasabi.com
There are fewer and fewer narrators I can understand as my hearing diminishes,, I'm lucky to have clicked on Brian Newberry's channel. Well Done!
I'm honored Robin. Thank you friend! If all goes well - Be On The Lookout for another Columbo - coming April 20th, 2017. :-)
Check your sinuses for polyps ...often causes hearing loss and is treatable through sprays or surgery.
love your narration thanks brilliant and professional
Sopho - Dude! Thank you for such gracious words! If all goes well - the next Columbo should be out by or before April 20th. :-)
Project Wasabi looking forward to it - this is really novel and it works - if you can do more I am pretty certain you will get a fan following
Thanks so much for these audio episodes! I appreciate your hard work and effort. It's fun to listen to the drama while I relax.
DUDE! - It's an honour, and THANK YOU for the good words! :)
That was excellent and thoroughly enjoyable - Hate to admit it but this was a MUCH better job than I have donee. while watching these episode(s) with my wife. My wife, who happens to be blind, and me both like to watch old Columbo episodes and I audio-describe, so I know it is not that easy.. Thanks again.
Hi Gyan! I was just delighted to read your thoughtful comment; thank you so much.
You're too gracious saying this is better than you have done. I hasten to add each episode takes me about three months to write, edit and narrate - so unlike you narrating to your wife (beautiful thought by the way) - unlike you two - I'm sort of "cheating". ;-)
I'm always thinking of the sight impaired as a way to do my narration. As in _"How would I describe this to a blind person?"_
Since TH-cam takes down about 50% of my stuff - I hope you & your wife will come visit my personal website - where you'll find *_MORE THAN_* what's here on TH-cam.
ProjectWasabi.com
Thanks again for making my day. Blessings to you & your wife. STAY HEALTHY / SALUD! - BN
excellent thanks for this. I hope you do more Columbo
RAKE! Sorry - I only just now saw your gracious comment. I've also done the original Columbo movie. I humbly invite you to check out pm.projectwasabi.com - also I'm currently working on another LAW & ORDER (this time, season 4, episode 7).
If all goes well this episode - "APOCRYPHA" should be out by New Years Day 2017. Thanks again for your comment.
and more recently - Columbo Death Lends a Hand ("DLH") can be heard at DLH.projectwasabi.com Blessings Rake! :-)
This was wonderful. I am severe sight impaired. What this is is or described you never talk across the dialogue. You always talk in between where the spaces are with dialogue does not exist and you do a damn description of everything. The things that need describing. Thank you again. Looking forward to hearing other episodes or Joe described.
What a kind & uplifting comment. Thank you AOB! :) if all goes well - our next audio drama is due out this Christmas / Chanukah of 2024! In the meantime - i hope you'll enjoy our other stories at my channel! Blessings AOB, and as always... _"thanks for listening, & we'll talk to you soon!"_
Enjoyed this so much. Thank you.
What a lovely comment to start my day! THANK YOU DEANNA! I've done about 20 of narrations, this "CANDIDATE" was my third out of 20. Personally I enjoy them all, and I think this one ("Candidate") is my favourite.
You'll notice I took some liberties where Columbo gasses up his car. Originally he was getting his car "SERVICED" to correct multiple safety issues.
Final item: If you come visit my website projectwasabi.com - you'll find even more audio dramas not available here on TH-cam. :-)
If all goes well - my next audio drama will be out this coming HALLOWEEN / "Brexit Day" 2019. Thanks again, and *_we'll talk to you soon!_*
Just terrific listening to Columbo!!!
Wonderful!! Thank you for this.
Happy Holidays Klientproby!
Thanks for the good words, amigo! More available at my website projectwasabi.com :)
Thanks Brian. You do great work. I enjoyed this very much, and look forward to hearing your other work!
ALRIGHT JOHN! Thanks for the good vibes, my friend. If you'd like to hear other work, I humbly invite you to check out my website projectwasabi.com . There you can find stuff which might be blocked here on TH-cam.
If all goes well - my next programme will be out Labor Day 2018 (3 Sept 2018).

Bravo Again !!
Your historical intros and beautifully descriptive vignettes are superb !
What a nice opening to my day! THANK YOU, amigo! :)
Newberry is a BOSS! I'm as interested in his commentary and descriptions as I am Colombo--which is saying a lot. I have seen this show many times and listened to Newberry's genius going on a dozen.
what a gracious comment! Thank you, Karen! :D If you liked this Columbo - we hope you'll check out our website ProjectWasabi.com where you'll find other similar programmes. Most audio drama, but also a few non-fiction documentary podcasts. Blessings to you friend, and thanks again for your kind words. :D - BN

Thank you so much 🙏🏼
It's an honour! :-)
This is just Brill. I LOVE Columbo. Was brought up watching it by my mum (from early 80's,) Got the box set for my xmas 6yrs ago, best present ever!!🤣🤣😁 Now i can listen to this while walking the dog, Yesss👍. I know it's a lot to ask and alot of your time but could you possibly do a Murder She Wrote?!! Another Favourite of mine, which i recently found out had the same writers as Columbo. Anyway. well done on the episodes you have done, excellent Job. Thanks for your hard work editing them, Alie xx
what a nice comment! THANK YOU SO MUCH, ALIE! You're not the first to recommend Murder She Wrote. I've never seen the show myself - but i know it's very highly regarded. Let me think on this. :-)
Here on TH-cam - NBC Universal BLOCKS about half of my audio dramas. So if you'd like to hear more - then I humbly invite you to come visit my website at projectwasabi.com . If all goes well - the next audio drama should be out this THANKSGIVING 2019. Thanks again for your gracious words! - BN

THANK YOU SO MUCH - from one addict to another! And please - call me "Brian". :-)
2:07:38
"So when you and your wife, you went to (?)"
I've seen this episode many times and i can never quite make it out. What does he say here?
Great work on this podcast, Brian! I love audio dramas and you did a great job here.
Good Tuesday Morning Ruckus, and thanks for the kind words. I LOVE your "trivia question" (for lack of better term).
You may have noticed i took a few liberties where Columbo gets gas.
In the meantime, i'll try to locate that part you're talking about "So when you and youru wife, you went to....(?)"
LOL / now you got *_me_* curious! Blessings!
- BN
OH!! I just now saw it. 2:07:38. "When you and your wife, when you went *_to vote -_* I took advantage of that opportunity to come in here and look around..."
@@BrianNewberry Thanks man, really appreciate it. I never could quite understand that one bit of dialogue, lol.
This is great narration - much better than watching on tv.
Pauline, you just made my day! Bless you. :-)
If all goes well - a new COLUMBO coming this APRIL 20th, 2017!

What a treat. Once again, thank you from South Africa. Very professionally done and a joy to listen to.
Thank you so much.
SABINE!! My friend from the other side of the world! Hope you're well amiga!
of the dozen or so audio dramas i've done - this is my personal favourite. If you've recently "SEEN" this episode, you might have noticed I took some liberties with the plot. ;-)
FUN FACT! (at 26:02 on the timeline) - Columbo's at his Dentist & they're listening to opera music.
The TV SCENE begins in the middle of the opera RIGOLETTO - which is in the original TV soundtrack, so I could not remove this music.
Immediately *BEFORE* this Dentist scene (25:25 on the timeline) - for my narration I used my own copy of RIGOLETTO as background music as I narrate that "Columbo is at his dentists office in Santa Monica, and yadda, yadda, yadda....")
i "synched up" "MY RIGOLETTO" with the "TV RIGOLETTO" in the TV soundtrack, and the illusion is just one fluid transition (we hope "transparent"). :)
It's been a while since I have actually seen a Columbo episode.
But why would you want to remove the music? Beautiful opera and clever you for editing in the extra.
All adds to the listening pleasure.
Its the middle of the night and I shall now listen to another of your contributions. Will comment later.
Ooops! You're totally correct about Rigoletto. Beautiful music, & I'd never remove it. I did say that - but (tired) that wasn't really what I meant. My bad! A better way to say it is "even if I'd wanted to, i couldn't remove it."
Even though you've not seen it recently, you might recall the scene in which Columbo gets stopped randomly by Calif. Highway Patrol for a vehicle maintenance inspection. Of course, his Peugeot 403 convertible fails and they give him a citation to get it fixed.
He takes his car to a mechanic, and while the mechanic's working on his car, Columbo borrows his tow-truck so he can scan the roads around Hayward's beach house. (Really....?)
Profound respect to COLUMBO whose writers can do no wrong - *on VIDEO.*
But as *AUDIO DRAMA,* this part of the story was just too wildly unbelievable. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't narrate this and keep it believable. I just couldn't include this, so instead - in this audio drama, i have Columbo pump his gas, & only then realise he forgot his cash so instead pays by check.
As always, you paint beautiful word pictures and improvise where necessary, not at all detracting from the story line.
Have now listened to a few of your Columbo adaptations and find them more enjoyable than having to sit and watch. I am now able to indulge and do something else at the same time, so no need to feel guilty for being idle.
Great.
@@sabinemackinnon3510 exactly as I'd hope they'd be enjoyed. Gardening, driving, working out, cleaning house, etc... :-)
So great episode
FANTASTIC episode, i agree. And as "narrator," i'm just piggy-backing on the backs of giants - namely _Richard Levinson_ and _William Link._
Happy 2024 man!
That was WONDERFUL! You did an amazing job! I can't imagine what it took to do it, but please know how much I appreciate all the work!
Thank you EK! It's an honour! If all goes well, our next programme should premiere here on TH-cam this coming US Independence Day / 4th of July 2022.
Crossing my fingers. :-)
One of the best gotchas ever
Right on man. When you say _'One of the best Gotchas ever'_ - i think you mean - at the very end where Jackie Cooper closes his eyes? LOL - and i would agree - the ULTIMATE GOTCHA.
Taking a survey. In your opinion - which of the following would make for a good audio book?
- Make Me A Perfect Murder
- Exercise in Fatality
- Any Old Port In A Storm
- The Conspirators
- The Most Crucial Game
Cheers.
You did a good, thanks
DSLR MAN! THANK YOU SO MUCH DUDE!!
This Labor Day - Be On the LookOut for "STREETS OF SAN FRANCISCO / INFERNO".
Blessings! - BN
Pure bliss thank you Brian. 😊
what a great way to start my morning! Thank you Jo! 😊
I want all of these, I know it’s a lot of work, but I’m enjoying these a lot
Colombo is the best ever. I just love watching him. I know he is gone but this was a classic.
I couldn't agree more! Columbo 'IS' the best ever.
One person's opinion - I don't think of him as 'gone'. So long as we watch these shows (or listen to them) and enjoy their virtues, then the most important thing about him (the goodness, the decency of spirit, the good v evil, the compassion, the humor, the chivalry....) - then he is still with us. :)
Yes,yes!! He's in a League of his own. To me, he's in the same category as Lucille Ball. No one will ever replace them, no one will ever be like them!
Thank you for this recording. PLEASE make more!
When Hayward whistled Columbo's signature song. "This Old Man'" I was like you have gone too far and stayed too long."
😀 - that's good - i'd not considered that. Cheers!
Morning Thunks a bunch.
This is fantastic!!! I know it's alot of work but more Columbos PLEASE???
HELLO CINDY! Sorry i only just today saw your kind words! THANK YOU SO MUCH! As a matter of fact, I've done other audio dramas - all available at my website projectwasabi.com
Blessings! and Happy 2018. :)
This is wonderful 👏 . I just love it . Thank you very much 😊
Virgie - your gracious comment was a great way to start off my morning - blessings friend!
If all goes well - our next audio drama will be our Christmas Day 2021!
In the meantime there are a few other programmes here on my TH-cam channel - and even more at my website - projectwasabi.com
Stay healthy and thanks again for your nice comment! - BN
@@BrianNewberry I will definitely be listening
Thank you so much for all your hard work. You might not know it but your uploads are perfect antidote to food poisoning.candidate for crime seems to work especially well for diverting attention from one's tummy!!
OH NO! MZ M - I am so sorry to hear about your food poisoning! Hope you're feeling better by now(?) I can't tell you how much your comment means to me. I do these specifically with the intent of "taking you to another place". So your comment about "diverting attention from one's tummy" - I'm very pleased to know my project helped you in that way. Get well soon my friend - and STAY HEALTHY! :)
@@BrianNewberry you're so welcome Brian. Believe me I listen to you when I feel well also the color that you provide is just great
Probably better than Columbo's film 'Murder Under Glass' , with the victim getting poisoned in an Italian restaurant. Ha ha.
Thanks@@damienpepper2254! i only just now saw your gracious comment. If all goes well, our next Columbo premiere should be this Thanksgiving / Nov. 28, 2024! Blessings. - B
Hooray! more audiodramas! can't wait :)
+MrsSmith0526 Good to see you! :-D
+Brian Newberry Hi Mrs Smith! Thanks for the good words! :)

th-cam.com/video/fG5q7XWBvnk/w-d-xo.html
@@BrianNewberry See we've got some new commenters here! Hope you're well Brian, congrats on the growth. Just wanted to check in. Mrs.Smith
@@tiedtruth1071 welcome aboard amiga! :)
Solid. Good work blending episode audio and your well written description. Long way from two fans conversing on ep impressions that are not interesting. Really good, hard work.
Your next episode can you do Friend In Need with Richard Kiley as Police Commissioner Mark Halperin
Hey b! Thanks for asking. You've got a good knowledge of Columbia. FRIEND IN NEED is a good one.
Unfortunately NBC Universal now takes down all my Columbos.
Doesnt matter if it's TH-cam, SoundCloud, Vimeo, etc.
If you like this episode then I invite you to come visit us online at ProjectWasabi.com where there's MORE THAN just what's here on TH-cam.
Stay Healthy / ¡SALUD!
@@BrianNewberry Cool! I'm old enough to remember when radio was the entertainment of choice. This is top notch, kudos!
5'we eww w5
I love the audio I hope you can find the time to do some more!!!!
Chris - thanks man! "...find the time to do some more!" I'm honored you'd say that, and it's a sort of obsessive compulsion of mine! :) So "YES!" more to come.
Blessings!
Brian Newberry you are the man excited for the next episode! You are a pro I would put you up against anybody narrating!!!!
Chris - your message is my very first of 2018. What a great way to start off my year. BLESS YOU, friend!
If all goes well - I hope to have the next audio drama (Law & Order) will be released on Super Bowl Sunday (4 February 2018!)
In the meantime, I humbly invite you to visit my website, where you can listen to my other audio dramas. projectwasabi.com Thanks again, Chris! And have a terrific 2018! :)
Pretty Cool! God Bless
Thanks Man! Blessings back to you! :D
happy new year to you too Brian
Hi Mloclam - sorry I only just saw this message. THANK YOU! And Happy New Year to you too! :)
One of the best episodes
thanks from Montreal 🙏🏼
Blessings to Canada and RCAF. Especially cool a few years back when we yanks had our Government ("Trump") Shutdown - and Canadian Air Traffic Controllers sent pizza to their US counterparts. You folks helped get our hostages our of Iran all those years ago. Even to this day - you folks are our partners in NORAD (missile detection & defense). *_DIG CANADA!_*
PS: If all goes well - our next programme is due to premiere this US Independence Day / 4th of July 2022.
In the meantime & in between time - if you enjoyed this Columbo, we hope you'll visit us online at ProjectWasabi.com. There, you'll find more Columbo, as well as Law & Order, Dragnet, and others. Blessings! And _we'll talk with you soon!_
i can't to you how much. i 💘 Columbo to see him or hear him, i can do all day thank you
Cherrie! THANK YOU SO MUCH! What a gracious comment. For other free audio dramas, I hope you'll check out my website projectwasabi.com
Hi,Brian. Happy New Year to you and your family
I was happy when murder lend a head came out but i was block😐😣. I hope you come with more..Tks 😚
HEY SONIA! Bless your heart. Blocked HERE on TH-cam, but you can hear it at my website. I humbly invite you to visit us online at projectwasabi.com
Great work. My sister is a huge Columbo fan. I`ll introduce her to your work, She`ll love it. Thanks.
Thank You Mr Valiant, for the good words! Hugs to you & your sister. :-)
Long live the great columbo and all who made it
Hear Hear! Not least of whom *_Richard Levinson_* and *_William Link._* As you probably know - these two appear as "characters" in another Columbo story.
We humbly invite you to check out our spoken-word audio drama of *_MURDER BY THE BOOK...!_*
th-cam.com/video/6DiLPhGJRoE/w-d-xo.html
Excellent Brian. Please give us another Columbo.
+Simon Davies LOL / I'm honored! Thank you so much. You just made my day.
''ANOTHER COLUMBO'' eh? Funny you should say that. I just completed the first third of my next Columbo Drama. :-)
In the meantime, I invite you to go up to ''DESCRIPTION'' - and click the link ''SEE MORE''. :-) Thanks again!
+Brian Newberry My pleasure Brian. Am a huge Columbophile. Got the whole series for Xmas, still binge-watching them. Fantastic to see you adapting them for a new medium. Adapting them in this way is fresh and exciting.
+Simon Davies if all goes well - "PRESCRIPTION MURDER" will broadcast starting March 17th (St. Patrick's Day). Hope to see you then! :-D
+Simon Davies
Thanks for all the support! :-D There's still a few bugs I'm workin' out, but I think you'll enjoy this latest audio drama - published today - "Prescription Murder":
th-cam.com/video/fG5q7XWBvnk/w-d-xo.html
Brilliant. Subbed ✌🏽
Awesome, thank you! Dude! I only just now saw your gracious comment. THANK YOU SO MUCH! :)
@@BrianNewberry You are very welcome my friend. Blessings, peace and respect to you and your family 👍🏾✌🏾
Please produce more Columbo audio shows. I like them all. I like the one with staring Johnny Cash, The Swan Song.
Roger that, Pilot! THANK YOU Amigo, for the good words.
If all goes well - "Be On The Lookout" for STREETS OF SAN FRANISCO, coming this Labor Day, 2017. :)
OH, the Columbo program starring JOHNNY CASH is my FAVORITE!!! I would be so grateful to hear the audio of that show, The Swan Song!!!
I LOVE that episode. I love Johnny Cash almost as much as I love Columbo. But here's the problem: I cannot stand to see Johnny Cash get arrested ("again"). This is the same reason I cannot do that wonderful Ruth Gordon episode where she locks the guy in the vault. I LOVE RUTH GORDON so much that I can't do an episode where she's the villain! (though I would guess both Ruth and Johnny Cash LOVED their parts as villains).
PLEASE Don't hate me for being beautiful! ;-)
My wife wanted the Ruth Gordon episode, and only recently has she started speaking to me again. LOL.
Don't know if you got the message - but there are at least two feature-length programmes on my personal site which are 'NOT' here on TH-cam (NBC Universal said "NO DICE").
The good news is - I posted them elsewhere, and I hope you'll come check them out! :-)
"Law & Order RENUNCIATION" ( Renunciation.projectwasabi.com ) and "Law & Order UK: DEFENCE" ( Defence.projectwasabi.com ). If you like them - i invite you to "Share", but if not, that's OK too.
I really enjoyed all your Columbo audio dramas. I look forward to hearing more Columbo episodes from you. Do you have a Twitter account... I wanted to send more Columbo fans your way? Just one more thing...WELL DONE!
DANIEL! Thank you my friend! You just made my night. I don't have a Twiter - but I am on Facebook - facebook.com/ProjectWasabi/.
Regrettably I won't have a new Columbo will 1 January 2019. In the meantime - I humbly invite you to check out my website projectwasabi.com - there are some programs NBC blocks here on TH-cam, so I must post them elsewhere. EVERYTHING is sort of "corralled" at my website and my facebook.
Thanks again for the good words amigo! Blessings!
Brian, Thank you ever so much for all of the time and effort that you put into bringing us these wonderful audio series. I know I speak for us all when I say we truly appreciate all of your hard! ⚘💖
KIT! THANK YOU so much for the good words. Truly - I am honored for every minute NBC/Universal permits.
Top pocket 💯
Top Notch. Your descriptions and commentary is on the make. Very, very talented and generous. I can tell this is a labor of love for you. Really, thanks for sharing your gifts...Do you have a podcast I can tune into?
Hey Joseph! Thanks for the good words. I have the next best thing to a podcast.
TH-cam lets me keep about half of my content up online. The rest can be found at my website.
Come visit us online at projectwasabi.com
If a goes well - our next project is due out Christmas 2020 - the British police drama - "Murder Investigation Team".
Blessings and SALUD! :)
For real...your Columbo is the best! ...Catch you on TH-cam
Best scene: Columbo at the Tailors. Needs a $200 coat to attend a dinner-dance @$17.50 per ticket. The tailor witheringly suggests that C go, instead, to 'dept stores'. But C gets his clue about the case, despite the tailor's snobbery. Irrepressible Columbo. And a reprieve for his raincoat.
Well said, amigo! Thanks for weighing in! :)
Omgoodness! Produced and narrated by Brian Newberry, wow just wow.
:-) THANK YOU LORETTA! If you enjoyed this audio drama - you might enjoy my OTHER narrations. All available at my website projectwasabi.com :)
Brian Newberry I'm on it!
Oh, I also clicked the subscribe and the like buttons 💖💖💖
at 39.24 they're playing the music from the Janet Leigh episode
Hiya Pearl! "THE FORGOTTEN LADY". Very perceptive of you! I'd not noticed that. As you probably know - that music was part of the original TV sound track. But SOME of the music - I put in myself.
Since you like the music aspects - I hope you'll check out (approximately) 26:02 where Columbo is at his dentist.
At 26:02 you hear the opera RIGOLETTO in the background. RIGOLETTO is part of the original TV soundtrack (I didn't put that in; it was already there).
.
But BEFORE THAT, at 25:25 as I begin narrating, you can hear RIGOLETTO Before.
That part of Rigoletto I put in, and SYNCHed it so it would match the Rigoletto in the TV show.
That way from my narration - into the dental scene - the Rigoletto is steady & continuous. Fun! :)
Love all of Columbo...but this is one of my Top fives....
Right on, Bobbie! I think this is my favourite too. I did take a few liberties in removing the CHP inspection checkpoint. It might work "visually" - but in terms of narration - as a writer - I just couldn't verbally *_explain_* that scene nearly as well as Irv Perlberg & Irv Pearlberg and Alvin Friedman wrote it. Probably why Columbo is such an amazing experience all 'round.
cette serie est mervelleuse merci beaucoup
Ah joo kamsa HAM nee dah! :projectwasabi.com -)
Do you plan on uploading more of these?
Oh Yes! It's an addiction of mine! :)
If all goes well - our newest Audio drama should be out by Christmas 2021.
In the meantime, we hope you'll check out our website which has additional titles, not all available here on TH-cam. ProjectWasabi.com
I love Colombo!
Columbo Rocks! :)
Peter Falk: A Jewish actor playing an Italian cop.
You're right. Also good to note - "by way of from New York. "
Peter Falk was Polish, Hungarian, and Russian.
He was Jewish? ✡ cool. I don't know.

These are ideal to listen to when in the shower 🚿
Right on, Radium! Glad you enjoy them! For other titles _(some of which not available here on TH-cam)_ we hope you'll visit us online ProjectWasabi.com
