In the brief Stout biographies at the back of many Bantam editions of Wolfe, a radio show Stout M.C.'ed during World War II is mentioned: "Speaking of Liberty." Has anyone heard recordings of the show? It would be interesting to hear Stout speak in general and to hear, in particular, whether any Archie-isms or Wolfe-isms are evident. Maybe he even said, "Pfui."

I used to have a site bookmarked with old radio shows on it, but I've lost it in my various computer meltdowns. I know they had Nero Wolfe dramatizations on it, but I'm not sure about the above mentioned show. They had tons of stuff. Maybe if you Googled classic radio? It may even have been named here in one of these threads.
Edited to add: I've read samples of some of Stout's letters, and they do seem to be a cross of Wolfe and Archie.
