Publisher's summary

This episode of The Green Hornet first aired on March 26, 1946.

The Green Hornet debuted on a Detroit station, WXYZ, on January 31, 1936, and later aired on the Mutual and ABC Blue networks until its final broadcast on December 5, 1952. The masked crime fighter was the secret identity of newspaper publisher Britt Reid, who relied on his valet, Kato, and a supercharged roadster, the Black Beauty. Al Hodge portrayed The Green Hornet during the series' first seven seasons, followed by Donovan Faust, Robert Hall, and Jack McCarthy. The series was created by the same team that brought The Lone Ranger to the air.

Reminds me of "Happy Days"! Well done!!

If you could sum up Youth Takes the Headlines in three words, what would they be?

Classic Happy Days!

What other book might you compare Youth Takes the Headlines to and why?

Any of the wonderfully presented Green Hornet episodes!

What does the narrator bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Realism and emotion combine to make an exciting flow to the story!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Just a nice case of "Yeah that is how is should be!"

Any additional comments?

Well played and expertly presented, Radio Spirits does it again with another fine restored episode of the Green Hornet!

Times Don't Change

Just a hooligans' type of show but still I hooked on this series. Getting ready to start the next one.
