At last we reach the final three chapters of Carlton E. Morse's corking good thriller, "The Thing That Cries In The Night." Plenty of clues are given to the identity of the murderer, more crazy running around in the middle of the night, and everything comes to a fantastic climax in this action-packed radio serial from 1949.

We are almost done with our series devoted to the famous voices that worked on radio and cartoons during the golden age. This week, Satn Freberg is back, this time with a radio essay on The CBS Radio Workshop, about satire. Helping Stan make his point about the importance of satire, we hear many great voices also heard in cartoons, such as Daws Butler, June Foray, Bill Thompson, and even Parely Baer (who did the voice of the Keebler Elf in commercials).
