Have Gun Will Travel was a popular American Western television series that aired on CBS from 1957 through 1963. It was the #4 show in the Nielsen ratings in its first year, and #3 for the next three years. It was one of the few television shows to spawn a successful radio version. The radio series debuted on November 23, 1958. The show followed the adventures of Paladin, a gentleman-turned-gunfighter played by John Dehner on radio, who preferred to settle problems without violence, yet, when forced to fight, excelled. Paladin lived in the Carlton Hotel in San Francisco, where he dressed in semi-formal wear, ate gourmet food, and attended opera. In fact, many who initially met him mistook him for a dandy from the East. When working, he dressed in black, used calling cards and wore a holster which carried characteristic chess knight emblems, and carried a derringer under his belt.

    Great listen
    Andrew does a great job editing the sound quality of these old shows. There seems to be a debate whether or not commercials should be left in. Personally, I find them a historical frame of reference and choose to focus on enjoying the great entertainment Andrew is making available to the public gratis.

    Good show, not-so-good host
    Audio quality of the shows is outstanding. However, the host is obviously uncomfortable speaking and needs to learn a lot about editing. Too many commercials left in the shows. One old commercial for nostalgia is OK, but EVERY single one has been left in, which is annoying and disruptive. Host needs to listen to other OTR podcasts to get an idea of what people are looking for.
