TCOT Podcast Episode 063 - Credulous Quarry

Season 4 - Episode 2

Originally aired - September 24, 1960

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 4 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.

Dee Spills the Tea:

Raymond Burr helps out a fellow actor:

In the 1950s George E. Stone (court reporter in this episode) worked often in television. When his eyesight began to fail, industry friends helped him get small parts. Raymond Burr was one of them and arranged for him to play the court clerk on more than 40 episodes of perry mason. I also remember him playing a bartender in one episode. Nice guy, Ray!
