Episode 611 - All Saint’s Day (The Saint)

Down These Mean Streets (Old Time Radio Detectives)

The radio adventures of The Saint premiered in January 1945, and we're celebrating the anniversary of his radio debut with four tales of Simon Templar. Several actors played the Saint over the years, but the voice that's synonymous with the character belongs to Vincent Price, and he plays "the Robin Hood of modern crime" in our quartet of crimes: "The Saint Goes Underground" (originally aired on Mutual on July 31, 1949); "The Problem of the Peculiar Payoff" (originally aired on NBC on July 9, 1950); "Reflection on Murder" (originally aired on NBC on August 13, 1950); and in his final radio performance as The Saint in "Pin No Roses on My Corpse" (originally aired on NBC on May 20, 1951).
