This one's Pete's pick, and there's action a-plenty in the selection, followed by fast-paced discussion of its merits by the three co-hosts. Will Pete and Paul have a Walter Brennan voice-off, reluctantly judged by Dave? Tune in and find out!! (NARADA RADIO COMPANY)</p> <p>And since we're on the subject of finding things out, while you listen you'll learn if we feel this entry meets the following criteria:</p> <div class="libsyn-item-body"> <p><em>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.")</em></p> <p><em>2. Is it an episode worthy of inclusion in any and every OTR aficionado's private collection?</em></p> <p>So with this in mind, we three bring you, as our thirty-second number (but 7th official episode of S3), this episode of <em>Lux Radio Theatre</em>, from 3/3/49. 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! </p> <p>Please show your support of the podcast by doing any of the following!</p> <p>To comment on how we might improve OTR-E, or give suggestions for future discussions, please write to us at f6point3@gmail.com .
