DANGER, DR. DANFIELD: THE PROFESSOR (AUGUST 18, 1946)

 Considered by some to be the worst radio detective show to ever hit the airwaves, Danger, Dr. Danfield featured an "insulting, obnoxious, conceited,  and condecending" unlicensed "private investigator/criminal psychologist with an ego complex."   The acting was terrible and the writing worse.  Steve Dunne played the title character, with JoAnne Johnson as his secretary, Rusty Fairfax.  The show ran on ABC Radio from August 18, 1946 to April 13, 1947 and then was sydicated for several years after.

When a show gets that bad a reputation, you know I have to check it out.  Maybe you'll want to, also.
