Yup. This site has his radio appearances. Obviously, not all that's listed in 'LINE UP'.

I wasn't aware of the Jim and Marion Jordan episode - found it on YouTube last night. It was really good, and well-acted! I had heard an interview Jim Jordan gave near the end of his life where he talked about the difficulty of getting work after Fibber because people didn't even know who "Jim Jordan" was. (They were billed as "Fibber and Molly" on the Suspense episode I heard.) Definitely a shame because they both had talent outside of playing those 2 characters.

Anyway, thanks for sharing!

I was curious to hear Walter Tetley (just wanted to see if he tried to do anything different with his voice) and picked "Too Hot To Live" from your list. Funnily enough, he is not actually part of the show itself in this episode. He plays "Johnny Plug Check" in two, one-line appearances during the Auto Lite commercials. But Howard McNear was in this episode, so maybe this one belongs on your Howard McNear list.

Here's the full cast credits (from the wonderful site radiogoldindex.com):
Suspense. October 26, 1950. CBS net. "Too Hot To Live". Sponsored by: Auto-Lite. Richard Widmark, Hy Averback, Harry Bartell, Paul Frees, Howard McNear, Joseph Kearns (announcer), Sam Rolfe (writer), Elliott Lewis (producer, director), Harlow Wilcox (commercial spokesman), Bert Holland (commercial spokesman), Walter Tetley (commercial spokesman), Lucien Moraweck (composer), Lud Gluskin (conductor).?
