Free Old-Time Radio Listening

Here is a quick entry to get a resource out to you for some fun listening.

I do some shopping around to find deals for my own physical media and the most efficient ways of getting audio media. Today's offering is a perfect example.

Let me introduce you to Antioch OTR (Old-Time Radio). This Internet streamer runs a schedule of classic radio programs continuously. The programs cover many genres and there is no cost to listen. You can start streaming here:

I Confess - I Liked it a Lot

I have not been blogging recently but that is easy to explain: I have a full-time job, a part-time job, a commute of one-and-a-half hours each way most days, and a side business. But tonight I found the energy for the simple reason that I really enjoyed a show enough to get the word out. I have been following the Knives Out movies since the first. I found that first movie interesting, but very focussed on a specific political message. The second was more neutral than the first and was just more fun. I do find that the main character, private detective Benoit Blanc, played by Daniel Craig, to be a little hard to accept as a brilliant sleuth. The clues are good, his observations of them lead to a satisfying conclusion of the mysteries, but the general character doesn't seem to be a man who notices things or has subtle reasoning going on. That does clear up a bit in the newest Knives Out movie, Wake Up Dead Man. I won't spend  a lot of time critiquing the other two movies because ...

Keeping Up with the Past

One of the things I have been doing to be well-informed in my craft and provide some material for this blog is to explore and many TV, podcast, radio, and other media-based crime entertainment series as possible. This gives me a chance to find things that my audience may like. It also lets me compare styles, themes, and plots of various shows. For instance, one episode of the Rockford files is actually a reworking of a Sherlock Holmes short story. Without ranking or reviewing at this point I just want to offer a list starting with the shows I am currently working through: Perry Mason - evening viewing Sherlock and Co. - podcast while commuting Columbo - TV movies during lunch hours Here are some others that I have watched. Unless marked "partial" I finished the entire series. Please don't take this list as recommendations. I would be very sorry, for instance, if you read this blog and then watched Broadchurch. I am sorry for anyone, including myself, who HAS watched Broad...

Welcome!

Welcome to my blog! I am here for mysteries, magic, and puzzles, and I hope you are too. When you visit here you can expect to read about my own writing, the mysteries I like (both real and fictional), magic and magicians, and occasionally puzzles. My main goal here is to provide some entertainment and introduce you to my fiction. I got hooked on mysteries myself way back in fourth grade when I read some Edgar Allan Poe stories. Then one dreary Sunday afternoon I discovered my father’s copy of The Complete Sherlock Holmes. I looked for a story I had heard of, The Adventure of the Dancing Men, since it was mentioned in a book about codes and ciphers in my school library. From there I strayed into more Holmes stories for a bit then moved on to other genres. It wasn’t until college that I turned back to mysteries in a serious way. I read everything I could by Doyle (thank God for Dover reprints), Agatha Christie, Dorothy Sayers (wished I could dress like Lord Peter), G. K. Chesterton, a...
