This exclusive special release is part of the Spirit Talk Show – Bedtime Stories for Grownups archive series, featuring a fully acted and sound-designed revival of The Planet Man, lovingly recorded by Doyle more than a decade ago. In this limited-run sci-fi event, listeners will hear Doyle step into several character roles, bringing new life, personality, and dimension to this classic 1950s radio adventure.
Originally produced in New York and syndicated in the early 1950s, The Planet Man followed Dantro, an agent of the League of Planets, as he protected the galaxy with courage, curiosity, and a deep commitment to interplanetary peace. Though much of the original cast remains unknown, the imagination behind the series has endured for generations.
In this premiere episode, Orbit the Moon, Earth’s first rocket ship to the Moon veers toward catastrophe—until a mysterious cosmic guardian intervenes. Dantro saves the doomed crew just moments before disaster, setting in motion a sweeping adventure that spans alien civilizations, political intrigue, and the fragile alliances that hold the universe together.
What you’re about to hear is retro sci-fi rebuilt for modern ears: immersive soundscapes, character-driven performances, and a nostalgic narrative elevated through Doyle’s multi-role acting and contemporary audio production. These special releases celebrate the magic of vintage storytelling while honoring the joyful creativity that inspired Doyle to record the entire series long before Spirit Talk Show existed.
Settle in, dim the lights, and journey back to the Golden Age of radio drama—reborn.
The adventure begins now.
