Good eve. Welcome to Skywave, your Gtown program for live radio play pleasure. Tonite we have 2 treats. We begin with a script from the Candy Matson detective series. Originally aired 1950, "The Egyptian Amulet" concerns the curious significance of an ancient Arabic amulet, a middle eastern real estate owner, an insane cult leader and a Scottish photographer about to become homeless in San Fran. How ill Candy fit all these pieces into a solvable puzzle. We continue with a piece of comedy from the Vic and Sade series. 1st broadcast in the '30s, "The Washing Machine is on the Blink" is mostly a gag fashioned from a science experiment; namely how to have fun shocking mom with an electric current under the plot guise of washing machine repair. Okay? Well, better be 'cause that's what we have for laffs this week. and here to keep you amused are voice actor regulars Carol Moog, Stephen Medvidick and your host, Andy Pettit.
