Radio Drama Network © 2026 Ep3 "The Bullet" FULL | Himan Brown's Radio Mystery Theater © | Original Archive In an ordinary American city, salesman Jerry Price is stunned when his old Army buddy, Paul Gardner, walks into Paddy Noonan’s bar — especially since Paul died nine years ago in Vietnam. Worse, he brings unsettling news: According to the Divine Plan, Jerry was meant to perish that day, while Paul was destined to survive, marry Jerry’s wife, Marge, and father a world-changing child. But cosmic balance must be restored, and time is running out for Jerry to meet the fate he narrowly escaped. ---- Radio Drama Network and CUNYTV announce the launch of the archival anthology podcast series IF YOU PLEASE: HIMAN BROWN'S RADIO MYSTERY THEATER, premiering June 4 About This Show Radio producer Himan Brown created over 10,000 programs in his lifetime, with a vigor and intensity that kept him going for a century. His life and prodigious output are celebrated in the podcast series Audio Maverick. Now, we offer rebroadcasts of a select group of Brown’s programs in a new series called If You Please, Himan Brown’s Radio Mystery Theater. Brown flourished during the Golden Age of Radio, the period between the late 1920s and the 1940s during which radio was the dominant entertainment medium in the country. But he was especially proud of his inventive re-imagining of radio drama for contemporary times—the CBS Radio Mystery Theater series, which ran from 1974 to 1982. Our new series—beginning with two 13-week seasons—will offer some of these exciting works again. Each of our thirteen programs will be introduced by editor and former communications director John Slavney, who is authoring the definitive guide to the CBS Radio Mystery Theater programs and will share details about the original series host—the distinguished actor EG Marshall—the playwrights, the actors, and the origin stories of some very strange plots.
