Redbook Dramas is a captivating radio series that aired in 1932, during the Great Depression. Based on short stories originally published in Redbook Magazine, these 15-minute episodes offer a mix of love, mystery, adventure, and romance. Let me share some intriguing highlights:

Diverse Settings: The stories transport listeners to exotic places like Yucatan, France, Dalmatia, and Manchuria. You’ll encounter remarkable characters and circumstances along the way.


Unforgettable Characters: From a surly Army private whose pet goat causes trouble to an American schoolteacher embroiled in political intrigue abroad, the characters are both relatable and fascinating.


Noteworthy Authors: Elaine Carrington, known for radio soap operas like When a Girl Marries and Pepper Young’s Family, wrote one of the episodes. Frank R. Adams, with his knockout revelations in “A Gent Passes By,” showcases his talent from popular magazines of the day.


Charming Musical Interludes: The broadcasts include delightful musical bridges, adding to the nostalgic flavor of the era.
