Two Fisted Tuesdays with Philip Marlowe - Trouble Is My Business
Welcome to Two Fisted Tuesdays, Dieselpunks' weekly beat on the mean streets.
We're listening to The Adventures of Philip Marlowe until we either run out of ammo or until poor Philip lays down for the big sleep.
Starting with the famous lines, "Get this and get it straight! Crime is a sucker's road and those who travel it wind up in the gutter, the prison or the grave. There's no other way, but they never learn." First broadcast in 1947, The Adventures of Philip Marlowe runs about 25 minutes without commercials.

Marlowe is hired by a dying millionaire to clean up his spendthrift son's gambling debts by digging up dirt on the pretty shill helping him drink his way through the family fortune. But Harriet Huntress is brighter than your average gold digger, and when Marlowe's information merchant turns up a few choice facts about her past, she begins glittering in a whole new light--and skeletons begin turning up in the most unexpected closets.
If you're interested in reading the original Trouble is My Business directly from the pen of Raymond Chandler, you can now buy it from the Dieselpunks store! All money raised via the Dieselpunks store is put back into the website, so your dime not only goes towards good noir, it also goes towards maintaining your favorite website.
I looked down at the chessboard. The move with the knight was wrong. I put it back where I had moved it from. Knights had no meaning in this game. It wasn't a game for knights.
