    Brett's Old Time Radio Show Episode 777, Yours Truly Johnny Dollar, The Missing Mouse Matter

    Good evening and welcome back to Brett’s Old Time Radio Show. I’m Brett, broadcasting from Lyme Bay. Visit www.linktr.ee/sundaynightmystery for all my links, and follow me on Instagram and YouTube. Send feedback to brett@tourdate.co.uk. Tonight, we’ll discuss ”Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar,” a radio drama that aired on CBS Radio from 1949 to 1962. Johnny Dollar, a freelance insurance investigator, was initially portrayed by Charles Russell, Edmond O’Brien, and John Lund. The show gained popularity with Bob Bailey’s portrayal from 1955, known for his detailed and character-rich stories. The format typically started with a call about an unusual insurance claim, leading Johnny to investigate, often facing danger. Each episode included Johnny’s expense account details, adding humor and structure. Later episodes included romantic elements and personal insights into Johnny’s life. Despite CBS’s attempt to move production to New York in 1960, resulting in Bob Bailey’s departure, the show continued with Bob Readick and Mandel Kramer until its end in 1962. ”Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar” is considered a landmark in radio drama, marking the end of the golden age of radio. Attempts to transition the show to television were unsuccessful.
