THE CELLAR MS4 EP1: INCIDENT IN THE LIGHTHOUSE
WARNING: RATED NC-17
For adult language, sexual situations, violence. LISTENER DISCRETION ADVISED.
Welcome to the fourth miniseries of The Cellar! This is the first of five planned episodes of this long-running series, and in our humble opinion, the plays keep getting better and better.
Episode 1, Incident in the Lighthouse, is set in early 20th-century France, in a coastal town. Lighthouse-keeper Remy is a shy young man, very pious, whose older brother Remy, a sailor, is 180° different -- fun-loving, irreverent, and impulsive. When they get together, Remy brings along two women of questionable morals. When the brothers learn that their mother is in danger, will Remy deal with the stress in a positive way? TUNE IN AND FIND OUT!
CAST:
FLEUR: Carole Krohn
LISETTE: Aileen Corpos
THE PRIEST: Chuck Wilson
ACHILLE: Mark Kalita
REMY: Ian Federgreen
PADRIG: Les Marsden

SONIC SUMMERSTOCK PLAYHOUSE 2024:
QUIET, PLEASE: How Are You, Pal?
Originally released in August 2024 on the Mutual Audio Network as part of the annual Summerstock podcast series, we proudly present this remake of an episode of Wyllis Cooper's classic old radio series. The only extant recording seemingly available is very difficult to listen to: full of scratches and badly damaged. I like to say that the record it came from might've been used in the owner's house to level out a table leg or something.
Anyway, this is the tale of a guy who hooks up with an old friend after a couple decades, and it turns out they have a lot to chat about. In Cooper's inimitable style, it's mostly told in first-person, with some bits of dialog coming in as flashbacks. Still, the actor we hired to imitate Ernest Chappell, the guy who tells the story, isn't too awful. But don't take our word for it. Listen and decide for yourself.
CAST:
ANNOUNCER/COOPER/MAN ON PHONE: Andy Hartson-Bowyer
THE GIRL/HER MOTHER: Jesirae Kesler
CHAPPELL/DANE: Pete Lutz
Music by Ross Bernhardt

Project Audion invites you to some light summer fare. This Audion Original -- "Matinee with Bob & Ray" -- is Bob Elliott and Ray Goulding like you've never heard before, because it's made from fresh sketches in tribute to "The Two and Only." If there is such a thing as mid-century-modern comedy, Bob & Ray are the leading example - a comedy team formed (legend has it) by accident in the mid-1940s when a baseball game broadcast was rained out and these two young men were thrown together to ad-lib on the air. That began a five-decade partnership that saw them on every radio network, on TV, films, and even Broadway. Their wit and deadpan characters influenced many later funnymen, including Bob Newhart, David Letterman, Jay Leno and many others. Also Pete Lutz, who wrote this half-hour of new absurdly satirical routines to bring back to life a "Matinee with Bob & Ray!" ENJOY! Bob Elliott - John Bell, Alabama Ray Goulding - Pete Lutz, Texas Organ - Ross Bernardt , Texas Production - Larry Groebe, Texas In case you were led here by a direct link, idle curiosity, or a friendly, enchanted bear, you may not realize that John Bell & Pete Lutz created an earlier Bob & Ray Show in 2021.

In the long lineup of fictional hard-boiled detectives, Philip Marlowe stands out as one of the earliest and best. Raymond Chandler's creation first reached print in the early 1930s, then went on to memorable adaptations in film, television, and of course radio. "The Adventures of Philip Marlowe" had a solid four-year run of well over 100 episodes on CBS. Still, a handful of recordings are lost today. Now Project Audion recreates one of these missing episodes - "The Quiet Number" - directly from the original script, exactly seventy-five years after it was broadcast. "The Quiet Number" wasn't penned by Chandler, but we meet the son of the man who wrote this and most of Marlowe's other radio adventures. Then our transcontinental voice cast performs this gritty story of lost love in a hot Los Angeles summer via a live transcription that sounds just like 1949.
Our versatile voice actors were:
Andy Hartson-Bowyer in Virginia
Richard Durrington in Idaho
Gary Layton in Texas
Lothar Tuppan in California
Kristen James in Nevada
Holly Adams in New York
Kyle Bonn in Oregon
Larry Groebe produced and directed from Texas

PROJECT AUDION EPISODE 56 - The Jack Benny Program w/guest star James Stewart (orig. rel. 6/14/24)
Project Audion once again brings you laughs, with an all-new original episode of the Jack Benny Program sponsored by Lucky Strike cigarettes. This Audion Original was written for us by former Bob Hope staff writer Robert L. Mills. Jack Benny was his childhood comedy inspiration, and once again Mr. Mills has recreated that classic Benny style and humor so faithfully, it's like discovering a lost episode! This week, Jack has snagged Jimmy Stewart as his guest star, so the Benny gang (Mary Livingston, Dennis Day, Phil Harris, Mel Blanc, and the rest) can stage their send-up of the Alfred Hitchcock film "The Man Who Knew Too Much." Also, after a trying violin lesson with Professor LeBlanc, Jack faces a tax audit which requires a trip to the IRS to explain some of his more mysterious deductions. Performing live in our virtual Zoom studio, our coast-to-coast cast and crew once again capture the sound of the Benny show right down to the studio audience. Tune in and join in the laughter!
