"Adventures of the Federated Tec"! A series of 8 initial episodes of 7 dramatized stories featuring Dashiell Hammett's nameless detective. We call him the Federated Tec ("Tec" being short for detective), but you probably know him as something else. We've chosen Hammett's first few stories that have moved into the public domain, and have done our best to stay true to the originals -- and why not? The originals are just fine, as far as we're concerned.

So here is episode seven, part 2 of "The Tenth Clew", adapted by Pete Lutz from Hammett's sixth published Op story, in 1924. We hope you enjoy it and will join us for future episodes. 

ADVENTURES OF THE FEDERATED TEC WAS CONCEIVED BY PETE LUTZ AND DEVELOPED BY PETE LUTZ AND MARK SLADE.

"The Tenth Clew" was directed by Pete Lutz, mixed and mastered by Daniel French of Fishbonius Sound Design. 

Our Cast consisted of the following players:

ANNOUNCER: Darren Rockhold

THE FEDERATED TEC: Pete Lutz

SGT. O'GAR: Jason D. Johnson

CHARLES GANTVOORT: John Bell

MESSENGER BOY: Jessica Rainville

FAKE DEXTER: Jordan Bruster

DEXTER MADDEN: Jeff Moon

FERRYMAN: Frank Guglielmelli

CREDA DEXTER: Rhiannon McAfee

OLD MAN: Joe Stofko

VOICE OF HAMMETT: Paul Arbisi

THEME/INCIDENTAL MUSIC: Dr. Ross Bernhardt

Join us next time for episode eight, our Season 1 finale, "Night Shots"!

Season Two of Old-Time Radio Essentials continues! It's our new co-host's choice this episode -- and New Dave, for our 5th episode of 2021, and has picked a very exciting episode of The Adventures of Philip Marlowe for us to discuss.

And since we're on the subject of discussion, we hope to determine whether this entry meets the following criteria:

1. Is it truly representative of that series? (Can anyone point to it and say, "Yes, that is what [NAME OF SERIES] was all about.")

2. Is it an episode worthy of inclusion in any and every OTR aficionado's private collection?

So with this in mind, we three bring you, as our twenty-fourth number (but 11th official episode of S2), this episode of Philip Marlowe from 1950. We'll introduce the show, play it in its entirety, then discuss it at length. Thanks for joining us, and we hope you enjoy it! 

Please show your support of the podcast by doing any of the following!

To comment on how we might improve OTR-E, or give suggestions for future discussions, please write to us at f6point3@gmail.com . Put the word "Essentials" in the subject line.

Your feedback means a lot to us! A review at iTunes or at your usual podcatcher would be appreciated.

SAVE THE LAST WORD FOR ME #3: Chatting with voice actor and friend Alex Moore (10/2016)

Again from our archives, we present the 3rd episode of a discussion podcast that I had high hopes for, but which only went for 9 episodes or so. But the discussions are fun and if you're interested in voice actors' lives, we delve pretty deep in these interviews. 

Alex Moore is a terrifically talented voice actor from Texas, whom I first met when we acted together in a production of Love's Labour's Lost at Del Mar College in Corpus Christi. Since then she has moved to the Dallas area, and has lent her voice to anime productions and commercials, and has appeared on the professional theatrical stage as well. I'm also proud to say that she's appeared in a handful of my audio dramas.

I'll be posting these re-runs monthly -- they originally launched on a different platform that I never use anymore, so you probably never heard of this show. Still, I hope you'll listen and enjoy.
