"Johnny Madero, Pier 23"
This series ran from 4/24 to 9/4/47 on Mutual at 8pm on Thursdays and starred Jack Webb as Johnny Madero, a San Francisco waterfront troubleshooter, who rented boats and did as he says, "anything else you can blame on the environment". Jack Webb did this show after he left San Francisco for a career in Hollywood in 1947. Essentially the same character as Pat Novak, whom Webb had played earlier on, the character's name was changed to Johnny Madero because Pat Novak For Hire was still in production. The Johnny Madero series was Webb's first national exposure on radio. The show was famous for its frequent use of wild and often hilarious metaphors.

NOTE:
Due to a server crash recently at SaveFile.com, these files are currently
unavailable.
I have been very busy with my new Disc Jockey company and with production of new
episodes of
The Glowing Dial of late and have not had time to upload these files once again.
SaveFile.com does not have batch uploading so all the files have to be
uploaded one-at-a-time.
This is very time consuming so please be patient and I will try to get the files
back up as I have spare
time to do so. I apologize for any inconvenience.
All
episodes of Johnny Madero, Pier 23 can be downloaded here.
NOTE: The new file storage system we are using deletes files (episodes) automatically if they sit on the server for 30 days without a download. This is beyond our control and we have no realistic way of keeping up with checking on this. So, we ask you, our loyal listeners to inform us if you find a file (episode) missing. Upon receiving such a notice, we will upload the episode to the server in as timely a fashion as we are able.
ALSO: Please do your best to not be a "bandwidth hog". We ask that you limit your downloads to a "reasonable" amount per day. Please do not use "download managers" either. Although we have unlimited storage space and unlimited bandwidth at our current storage location, we do not wish to "abuse" this privilege and "crash" or "severely limit" their server. Remember, there are many others who want to download these files as badly as you do so please give them a fair chance too.
