I can remember the opening lines of that radio show as though it were yesterday-a clear sign of aging when one remembers oddities from the past and forgets current matters.

Conrad with his gravelly voice began, "a Way out West there is only one way to handle the killers and the spoilers and that's with the US Marshall and the smell of… (Sound of Pistol shot with ricochet) Gunsmoke!"

Interestingly, many of the radio scripts were then used for television scripts and the same stories were simply retold with video. It seems they as time went on the television program became more and more soap opera and less and less Western. (I get it, a horse opera).
