Saturday Night Radio Drama - Gregg Taylor - Black Jack Justice

Another busy week, another week of not finding a new radio drama to post.  So I'm going to introduce or re-introduce my readers to the great, very funny series of hard-boiled detective stories featuring Black Jack Justice (Christopher Mott) and Trixie Dixon Girl Detective (Andrea Lyons).  Hard to tell who's the more hard boiled of them.  There are lots of stories to choose from they kept it up for fourteen seasons of stories plus a book.  I'd recommend starting at the beginning and listening through, there's a slight variation in quality but I didn't find any of them fell below quite good.  They're an inspiration of what's possible with minimal materials in service to good stories, amusing dialog, and good voice actors.  Other recurring characters include Lieutenant Victor Sabien (voiced by Gregg Taylor) and Freddie "The Finger" Hawthorn (Peter Nichol).  All of the episodes give full credits, something I really like to hear.

I wish more of the audio-drama community would drop the sci-fi, fantasy stuff.  It's discouraging to look for something new to post when most of it falls into those categories.   They're too easy.  You can just make up any old thing.   You can have fun without resorting to those.
