Part 2 samples the first two episodes of Bogart and Bacall's syndicated action-adventure radio series Bold Venture, 1951-1952. Slate Shannon (Bogart) and Gail "Sailor" Duval (Bacall), operate a hotel and charter boat in Havana, Cuba, before the revolution, and are natural magnets for adventurers and revolutionaries.

Larry Groebe returns with the season finale of Project Audion with a special show indeed - a NEW episode of Fibber McGee and Molly, written in tribute to this classic OTR comedy by one of Bob Hope's own comedy writers, Robert L. Mills. "Fibber's Missing Tux" is one you'll want to hear, as Mr. Mills packed his script full of Old Time Radio references (and some more recent pop culture as well), visits from some of the McGee's famous neighbors, and yes, Fibber manages to open that old overstuffed hall closet door - probably the most famous sound effect in all of old time radio. We have a sterling cast which mixes Project Audion regulars with newcomers to the group. But wait! There's more! Before "Fibber" takes the air, I'll talk with Mr. Mills in Hollywood about his OTR memories and his decades working for Bob Hope. And the whole production is introduced by Audion veteran Paul Arbisi from Peoria Illinois, hometown of Fibber's husband-and-wife stars Jim and Marian Jordan.
