  • Ava The Angel

    Ava The Angel
    Sep 16 2024
    This time, a show dedicated to one of the most spellbinding actresses of her generation - Ava Gardner - and a trio of movies she made before she became the icon we know today. She's a big city girl who returns home for one last try with her down-at-heel boyfriend in 1946 thriller, Whistle Stop, a bride-to-be whose home is being menaced by Bela Lugosi and The East Side Kids in 1943's Ghosts On The Loose, and finally, a race-horse owner who's determined to have her man in 1945's She Went To The Races. Ava also takes centre-stage for a taut tale of tension in radio's outstanding theatre of thrills - Suspense!

  • The Phantom Vampire's Ghost Speaks!

    The Phantom Vampire's Ghost Speaks!
    Jul 16 2024
    In this edition of the show, allow me to introduce you to two of the weirdest, yet joyously entertaining B movies from one of Hollywood's pioneering studios on Poverty Row... First up, its bloodsuckers ahoy in 1945's The Vampire's Ghost starring one of the most unlikely leading men of the forties. Then we're heading into supernatural mind swap territory for 1945's The Phantom Speaks, in which one of the best character actors of the Golden Age turns to the spirit world to prove his theories, with disastrous results... Radio this time comes from Arch Oboler's masterful Lights Out, and one of the most meta horror stories ever broadcast on the air To gain instant access to an entire universe of bonus extras sign up NOW at https://www.patreon.com/attaboysecret Learn more about your ad choices.

More talent than a BBC production.

I listen to about 60 regular podcasts while I work, some are really good, but few are even half as good as this podcast. it is genuinely repeat worthy entertainment, with historical insite into Hollywood in its prime.

For Golden Memories

Great podcast for people who love the Golden Age of Hollywood or who want to know more. Amusing old time adverts, radio plays and a host who seems to love what he is doing. My goto podcast for those times when I just want to escape the modern world for a while and be entertained.
