Season 2 - Episode 5
Originally aired - October 18, 1958
The Case of the Podcast is a Perry Mason Fan Podcast. We love and enjoy episodes from a tv show from the late 1950’s and early 1960. It’s so old, it was filmed in Black & White.
This is an episode from season 2 that we are choosing at random using a random number generator. We will be choosing our episodes this way season by season. We’re excited by this new process which will give each season a chance to shine.

Warren William: The First Perry Mason
The Case of the Curious Bride was made into a film long before the TV show. It aired in 1935 and featured Warren William as the first actor to play Perry Mason. William played Mason in four movies, this was the second. In the movie version, our protagonist was Rhoda Montaine (not Reynolds) and she was Perry’s ex-girlfriend. Also, this is the first movie appearance by Errol Flynn who went on to attain worldwide fame. Flynn played Richard Moxley (or Artie Kane of the tv version). Perry Mason Mysteries: The Original Warner Brothers Movie Collection (featuring all four of Warren Williams appearances as Mason) is available on Amazon for $28.
