Jack London declared nothing could match the pleasure of curling up with a good book and a bag of candy on a Saturday afternoon. While nothing can match it, one thing can surprass it: that is driving down a moonlit road, bathed in the green glow of the dashboard lights while listening to a riveting radio thriller!

NEW SHOWS NOW AVAILABLE:

The Case of the Four Little Beatles” (75 minutes)

The Day the Beatles secretly came to Cape Cod is both an historical fact and the departure point for this sendup of Agatha Christies’ classic mystery play, “Ten Little Indians”. Stellar cast includes regulars Dave Ellsworth and Wally O’Hara; Beatles sound alikes; as well as Jerry Nelson , creator of numerous characters from The Muppet Show and Sesame Street (e.g. Count Von Count).

 

“The Case of the Calico Lobster” (85 minutes)

Mobster kidnaps Hercules, world’s largest captive lobster, and holds it for ransom, threatening to devour it unless radio DJ, Molly Neptune, pays off her father’s gambling debt. Now Capt. Underhill must save the lobster before it ‘sleeps with the fishes’. Includes material contributed by Tom Lehrer.

Ode to the Front Page

 By: Thomas St. Eve

         

Cape Cod Radio Mystery . . .

    Perfect for trips all alone,

    To give one companionship,

    When you’ve got no cell phone,

     Except on lonely stretches,

    Of highway exposed.

     Who’s in the backseat?

     Nobody knows.

 

 Cape Cod Radio Mystery . . .

    Martians invading,

    Killers masquerading,

    ‘Down these mean streets’,

    Edge of your seat.

 

Radio Mysteries . . .

    Things that give one a fright,

    Like drunk drivers driving,

    On Saturday night,

    Other things that go bump in the night.

   

Cape Cod Radio Mystery . . .

    Victims slumping,

    Bodies sagging,

    Underhill discerning,

    Then learning,

    Then testing,

    Then besting,

    Then arresting,

    Then bragging,

   Scofield nagging.

   

Cape Cod Radio Mystery . . .

      We keep singing our name,

       Like the proverbial stool pigeon,

       Because it lifts us up,

       In the verbial search engines,

       Repeating key words,

       Works very well,

       But this is a secret so please 

       don't tell. 

 

Cape Cod Radio Mystery . . .

       Try one, if you like,

       We hope you'll buy more,

       To keep our actors from   

        succumbing,

        To the wolf at the door,

        And prevent us from posting,

        'Alms for the poor',

 

Cape Cod Radio Mystery . . .

       Our strategy's shifted,

       It you, valued customer, we're

       thanking, the gifted,

       Borrowing a page,

       From Burma Shave,

       From whence this pitch was

       lifted.   

 

  Burma Shave.
