--------------------
SUSPENSE was broadcast on CBS Radio from 1940 through 1962 and was one of the premier programs during the Golden Age of Radio. The show was subtitled “Radio's Outstanding Theater of Thrills” and focused on suspense thriller-type scripts, usually featuring leading Hollywood actors of the era. Approximately 945 episodes were broadcast and more than 900 are known to still exist.
The program’s heyday was in the early 1950s, when radio actor, producer and director Elliott Lewis took over. Here the material reached new levels of sophistication. The writing was taut, and the casts featured stars such as Orson Welles, Joseph Cotten, Henry Fonda, Humphrey Bogart, Judy Garland, Ronald Colman, Marlene Dietrich, Lena Horne, and Cary Grant.
The series expanded to television with the Suspense series on CBS from 1949 to 1954, and again in 1962. The radio series had a tie-in with Suspense magazine which published four 1946-47 issues edited by Leslie Charteris.
The final broadcasts of Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar and Suspense, ending at 7:00 pm Eastern Time on September 30, 1962, are often cited as the end of the Golden Age of Radio. The final episode of Suspense was “Devilstone,” starring Christopher Carey and Neal Fitzgerald.

The second one Nothing up my Sleeve was kind of silly and
didn't make any sense but was intriguing here and there.
