RAS #655 - S.O.S.

On the show this week we visit the history of the radio series CBS Radio Mystery Theater. Then we have four listener stories. An author has something strange happening with one of his manuscripts, a true story about a deadman floating home, a pen that can duplicate itself, and a ghost boy who lives in a cemetery. Our featured story asks the question, What does crime look like in the year 2185? A group of criminals find out that crime doesn’t pay. The story is titled SOS and comes from the OTR series The Mysterious Traveler. Featured Story - S.O.S. Our featured story comes from the OTR series Mysterious Traveler.  The radio series debuted in 1943 on the Mutual Broadcasting System. Our story is about a gang of thieves working in the future, 2185 to be exact, and coming to the realization that not only doesn’t crime pay, but also has its consequences. As you might guess this one falls under the umbrella of science fiction.  It is oddly titled SOS and first aired on May 2, 1950.  Other Stories Include: Murder Under The Big Tent, History of CBS Radio Mystery Theater, My Manuscript, Deadman Floating Home, Pen Or The Tulpa, and Ghost Boy Lanie.
