There was a rough desert wind blowing into Los Angeles that evening, one of those hot dry Santa Ana winds that come down through the mountain passes and curl your hair, make your nerves jump and your skin itch. Philip Marlowe closed up his office early and went out to get a beer. There is a drunk in the bar then a guy named Waldo enters looking for a tall good-looking girl in a silk dress and bolero jacket. He finds she isn’t there and as he leaves the drunken guy kills him with a shot from his gun. Philip Marlowe finds himself investigating who shot Waldo and why. This was the first episode of The Adventures of Philip Marlowe.

Customer Reviews
A fresh take on the classics
I stumbled upon this show through Reddit. It caught my attention because I love old time radio shows. The Mindstream Players do an uncanny job of breathing new life into classic old radio show scripts, sometimes with faithful adaptations, and other times as parodies that had me cracking up.
These are livestream recordings and yet somehow they have injected music and sound fx to give the show an audio drama feel. For the most part, the various microphone audios hold up for being a livestream (at first I didn't even realize it was a livestream, that's how well the audio holds up.) And even in the very few times that it falters, the music and production is still higher than most podcasts. It doesn't detract from the show at all.
The voice-acting is top notch and the writing is sharp. But forewarning, this podcast is sometimes NSFW. "The Hairy Handed Hitchhiker" episode is very funny but it's for mature audiences only. 😂 Anyway the podcast is a gem and I'm happy I found it. I'm gonna keep them on my feed and I hope to hear new episodes soon.
