Lamont Cranston is not the Shadow. Kent Allard is the Shadow. Lamont Cranston is a name he uses.
Well, yeah, I know that. I was just trying to keep the OP in the reference. The point I poorly made was that the novel posits a whole different backstory for the Shadow including use of the Lamont Cranston name.
Wait, so who is the rich guy on Gilligan’s Island?
The Shadow knows?
Wasn’t that Thurston Howell III?
Yes, Mary had the power of Minerva, I think. And Uncle Dudley wasn’t actually related to the Batsons.
As strong as an ox, and almost as smart… (a Benny Hill gag, but I am sure it was not original to him.)

The Lone Ranger fans on board might enjoy the Wiki article on Brace Beemer whose voice I can remember about as well as any from that era.
Does anybody else know the voice of J. Scott Smart?
Name some other radio actors and let us try to guess which character(s) they voiced…
Bud Collier; William Conrad; William Bendix.
The LR was John Reid; Dan was his brother; Butch Cavendish was the gang leader.
Who often goes by the name of Sebastian Toombs?
Good ones! Before looking them up, I’m going to guess Superman, Matt Dillon and Riley.
Anybody else got others like these?
Kee-rect! Well done! 
Not Val Kilmer, that’s for sure. 
I broke down and did a look-up on ST and was surprised that Sonny Tufts wasn’t the right answer.
Also, the sources I checked on the John Reid issue have that coming much later in the LR legend than radio. Dan as the nephew was the only one I was sure of back in the days when I hadn’t even seen Clayton Moore yet.
Did you ever order LR stuff from Merita Bread? 
de Monet!
Ah yes. I think I say both names with a snotty Hahvahd underbite.
But I did used to hear The Shadow on olde timey radio – Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men. The Shadow knows - mwhahaha!
that would be Bud Collyer as Superman.
William Bendix as Chester A. Riley.
though William Conrad is best known as Matt Dillon on Gunsmoke he did many hundred appearances as minor characters and as a announcer.
You’ve just pointed to an idea that might make a fun thread of is own: identifiable laughs and the characters/actors associated with them. The key issue with such a thing would be whether mere typing could make the specific laugh stand out enough for its uniqueness to be seen. As an example, could simple typing get at the gist of Three Stooges Curly " Certainly, Whoop, Whoop, Whoop, Nyuk, Nyuk, Nyuk"?
That would be fun…but I won’t even try typing the laugh of The Great Gildersleeve!
I know of Lamont Cranston because of an episode of Sanford and Son when Lamont Sanford, says something like “Hi I’m Lamont…” and then he changes his mind–he doesn’t want to give his last name, and finishes with “Cranston. WHo knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men.”
EDIT: I’ll fess up. Until I googled, I thought that Lamont Cranston was a character in Conrad’s Heart of Darkness.
