# Let George Do It – "Tune On A Triangle"

When George Valentine's telephone rings on a fog-thick evening, it draws him into a case as discordant as the jazz melody that becomes its twisted centerpiece. A woman's desperate voice crackles through the static with a tale of a mysterious musical composition—a tune that three people claim ownership of, and for which at least one of them is willing to kill. As George traces the melody from smoke-filled nightclubs to concert halls to the shadowy apartments of desperate composers, he discovers that the real song being played is one of jealousy, betrayal, and artistic obsession. The interplay between music and menace creates an atmosphere thick with danger, where every note struck in the darkness could signal another step toward violence.

"Let George Do It" arrived at radio's golden moment when listeners craved quick-witted heroes who could navigate the moral ambiguities of the postwar world. Airing on the Mutual network from 1946 to 1954, the show followed George Valentine—a man without a badge but never without a solution—as he solved cases that official detectives couldn't touch. Bob Bailey's rapid-fire delivery and impeccable timing made George irresistible, turning each episode into a whirlwind of clever dialogue, sharp plotting, and genuine peril. "Tune On A Triangle" exemplifies the show's genius for finding extraordinary drama in unexpected places, turning the world of classical music into a noir landscape.

Tune in to hear George unravel the mystery behind the triangle's three corners—and discover which corner hides a murderer. This is detective noir as only radio could deliver it: vivid, urgent, and unfolding in real time in your living room.
