The Suspense Project: The Cave of Ali Baba -- AND A REQUEST

"The Cave of Ali Baba" is today's Suspense episode. It's the first full program recording we have with William Spier in full command of the series. https://suspenseproject.blogspot.com/2023/01/1942-08-19-cave-of-ali-baba.html It's a Lord Peter Wimsey mystery, adapted from a Dorothy L. Sayers story. The script includes Ian Martin, one of the beloved guests at the early Friends of Old Time Radio Conventions. Martin's career was long and includes authoring many scripts, including Theater Five and CBSRMT. He's one of five actors to be in the Summer 1942 season of Suspense and the final broadcast season.
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT TOMORROW'S POST (Jan 20 '23) -- it will be about The Hitch-hiker and it has lots of "new" information that Suspense and other classic radio fans will find very interesting. It will be a very good post to share with as many of your OTR acquaintances as possible. If you read it and agree, your help for this project would be greatly appreciated!
