Escape - "The Golden Snake" (Old Time Radio)

Escape presents “The Golden Snake,” episode 106 of the CBS radio anthology, originally broadcast April 14, 1950. This sustaining presentation was written for radio by Les Crutchfield from Paul Pierce’s “Grand Canyon Suite,” and directed by William N. Robson. The cast includes Tony Barrett, Jeanette Nolan, John Hoyt, and Paul Frees. Helicopter pilot Steve Lane takes a lucrative assignment in Yucatán, flying an archaeological expedition toward a remote Mayan temple. But as Lane, Gail Barry, and Dr. Conrad press deeper into the jungle, legends of Kukulkan and a rumored golden treasure cast an ominous shadow over the journey. Escape presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
