Pat Novak 4 Hire 2023

In the 1940's Pat Novak For Hire was a beloved crime radio drama/comedy. Since then, all episodes have fallen into the public domain. Along comes this energetic/creative team of Showbiz professionals who create a collective to rescue this classic from the PD dumpster and update original episodes to the 2020's... sorta.You see... our version of Pat Novak takes those original episodes and rewrites and re-records them with modern updates to story... jokes... and references. But... this show lives in a netherworld that is both modern and old. Still Noir... but better.

    Fresh dialog and plots for the 21st century
    Loved the OTR version of Pat Novak for hire. This podcast keeps the same feel but brings it into the 21st century, fresh plots and witty one liners delivered at a fast pace by the lead actress playing Pat Novak. The "test ads" could be better placed so as not to interupt the show. I hope there will be another season. I was just getting used to the actors playing Jocko Madigan and Inspector Hellman towards the latter episodes.

    Film Noir with a Twist
    The writing is sharp with modern bon mots intertwined with Mickey Spillane type dialogue. A fun listen!

    A great first episode
    The perfect show for those of you who love old timey radio... but also love modern day comedy. It's new, it's old. It's Noir, it's funny.
