Classic Radio Rewind Episode 64: Murder and Espionage!

Step back in time with Classic Radio Rewind Episode 64, featuring two thrilling tales of crime and Cold War intrigue!

First, walk the beat with the detectives in "The Line Up" and their challenging "Paradise Murder Case." In this gripping police procedural, Lieutenant Ben Guthrie is on the hunt for a killer. When a man is murdered, Guthrie’s suspicions fall on an unlikely individual – another man who reported being robbed at the very same time. Tune in to hear how the officers unravel the clues in this realistic and suspenseful investigation, a hallmark of this classic series known for its authentic portrayal of police work.

Then, delve into the shadowy world of Cold War counterintelligence with "I Was a Communist For the FBI" in the episode titled "The Crossed Heart." Join FBI informant Matt Cvetic (portrayed by Dana Andrews) as he navigates the dangerous and duplicitous life of an undercover operative deep within the Communist Party. Experience the paranoia and high-stakes tension as Cvetic works to expose threats to national security, all while protecting his own cover in this dramatic story reflecting the anxieties of an era.
