Fun, with caveats.


(3 Sterne)

This is a fun little series in its way; however, it has a couple of silly premises. 1) All of Barton Drake's stories supposedly come from his apparently only published book, but, since he numbers the stories up into the hundreds, the book must be thousands of pages long! 2) Drake's pal, the police "Inspector," is an obnoxious, dumb loudmouth who feels and acts as if he has total police jurisdiction wherever he and Bart may go! (Why Drake even likes him is beyond me.)

Pretty good


(3 Sterne)

Yes, "Hobby" is pretty good. Not superb, not brilliant, but is good entertainment. It's also good that it's not a typical detective or crime drama, and it also includes a little humor here and there. Decent writing and good acting are included, too. I would suggest this program to other classic radio listeners, and, of course, thank you to the archives. A bigger thanks goes to those who took the time to post classic radio shows. -Charlie S.

Glen Langdon Does Well In Detective Show


(5 Sterne)

I am looking forward to hearing more episodes from "Mystery is My Hobby." Glen Langdon did well as a low-key, quick-witted detective. The supporting cast was good and the plot and pace of the first episode kept me interested. Thank you for airing these entertaining shows.

Duplicates


(4 Sterne)

I have listened to all of the shows now, and the very first poster is correct. There are 75 total shows to listen to/download. 12 are duplicates, 63 are original shows. It does not detract from the fact this I did enjoy the show, I just bypassed the duplicates.

many repeats


The upload is appreciated, but the person who put up these episodes did not check for duplicates. There are more than a few here.

wrong material!!

#3 does not belong with this group. It is mystery house. Please correct

fun series.


(4 Sterne)

I like this series.i know it is kind of corny but it is a fun series. At times the acting is over the top and the writing ok overall but not great. I still listen to it for a change of pace.

Very entertaining!
