Our thanks to Ryan for suggesting “The Iron Coffin” from The Adventures of Philip Marlowe, part of our Listener Library series! Raymond Chandler’s famous hard-boiled detective investigates a 16th century castle moved stone by stone from Spain to California, including the coffins that store the castle’s ancient family. What are the strange sounds that have been heard in the castle’s crypt? Is a haunted castle not a suitable location for a Philip Marlowe story? OR IS IT? Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think! (Tim is a little sick this episode. It’s winter in Minnesota so please bear with his ragged voice. Also! We briefly mentioned the Cowles Center, known as the Shubert when it moved, in Minneapolis. Learn all about it!)

Glad you liked it! I love Gerard Mohr.
Thanks again for the recommendation, Ryan. One thing I forgot to mention on the podcast was the gum commercial. I found it strangely effective. “Not only is Wrigley refreshing, delicious and lively, but the chewing itself gives you a little lift!”
I hope Tim gets over his cold soon!
Thanks for the kind wishes! I’m feeling much better now but (peek behind the curtain) we record several episodes in one sitting so I’m afraid I’m going to continue sounding sick for a few weeks on the podcast.
Just coming around to this episode. Loved it! It doesn’t get any better than 1955-56 Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar but Adventures of Philip Marlowe is second place in my book.
I totally agree with you!!
