Mystery is My Hobby Old Time Radio Program Mystery is My Hobby
Broadcast before a live audience, Mystery is My Hobby is a classic “whodunit” show from the gentleman-detective genre, starring Glen Langan as Barton Drake. The conceit of the show is that Drake is the urbane, well-to-do author of the book Mystery is My Hobby. Each episode he introduces a true-to-life “case history” from his book, in which he is always a central character. The dramatic action ensues, during which Drake cuts through the mayhem to solve the crime du jour--be it murder, larceny or blackmail--with the aplomb and savoir faire of a Peter Wimsey. He ends each episode explaining how he solved the mystery to feckless lawmen and criminal alike with the tagline “ . . . because mystery is my hobby”. The star of the series—Glen Langan—made a successful transition from radio and B-movie actor to frequent guest on the ubiquitous episodic TV shows of the 50s and 60s. He is best know as the star of “The Amazing Colossal Man”, the cult favorite from 1957. Laden with dramatic musical stings and enthusiastic audience applause, each episode began with the following: “Ladies & gentlemen, Barton Drake speaking. For tonight’s drama, I’ve selected case history number __ from my book, Mystery is My Hobby. I call it . . .” Although Mystery is My Hobby is not as well known
as many of the other old-time radio detective shows, it offers an
intriguing half-hour of entertainment for fans of the genre.
