This week we’re listening to Barbara Stanwyck’s lone appearance on Suspense, “The Wages of Sin”! Stanwyck stars as a hard-boiled woman being used to help cover up a murder. But once the police become involved she comes up with a scheme to secure a sizeable payday for herself! Will she successfully get her payout? Or will she die trying? Can someone bowl so badly that isn’t funny to watch? Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think!

All of these issues are heightened when I speak extemporaneously so my apologies to listeners. That being said, writing and speaking are two different functions, supported by two different parts of the brain! C’mon, man! The fact that I write scripts and spell interpret correctly and even hear it pronounced correctly in my mind when I read the word has no real bearing on how I pronounce the word in conversation.
