PROJECT AUDION 50 - Mystery in the Air
February 23, 2024 12:12 - 41 minutes - 25.6 MBPeter Lorre is an actor with such a distinctive voice and presence that even now, 60 years after his death, he's still instantly identifiable.

As a summer replacement show, there were only 17 episodes, and only 8 or so recordings exist -- so Project Audion asked Pete Lutz to create a NEW Mystery in the Air script. The result is both light-hearted and supernaturally spooky, and thanks to...
