Episode 147 – Wolfe in Sheep's Clothing (Amazing Nero Wolfe)

Down These Mean Streets (Old Time Radio Detectives)

Billed at one time as "the handsomest man in the world," silent screen idol Francis X. Bushman may seem a strange choice to play Rex Stout's gargantuan gourmet Nero Wolfe, but in 1945 he lent his considerable stage presence to the role on radio. Bushman headlined The Amazing Nero Wolfe, a short-lived series that co-starred radio actor and director Elliott Lewis as Archie Goodwin. We'll hear their take on the classic gumshoes in the show's sole surviving episode – "The Shakespeare Folio," originally aired on Mutual on November 30, 1945.
