RB085 The Deep Country

 Our Ranger Bill exciting adventure for a Thursday afternoon, 9/3/2026, is 

RB085 The Deep Country

Col. Anders and his wife get lost in the deep country while they are on vacation. The colonel’s assistant tells the Anders’ daughter that her parents are missing. Those two plus the slow-motion folks who live in the deep country make Bill’s job of finding the Anders nearly impossible.

This is one of Ranger Bill's very first adventures. It was probably first broadcast in 1950 when the show was several 15-minute adventures aired on Monday afternoons in the greater Chicago area only. Our cast may have also performed this show live to Sunday Schools and church groups to help advertise the broadcasts.

Nature Corner/Storybook Room - Darwin Frog

  Nature Corner/Storybook Room for Saturday morning, August 29, 2026

Duke the Darwin Frog hops into Uncle Bob Devine's Storybook Room this morning to tell us about himself. 

Duke comes from Argentina in South America, and his family can be found in Chile as well. Duke is only about an inch long. Darwin frogs live in the forested regions of Chile and Argentina. Their numbers are declining because many of their forests are being turned into tree farms and a fungus is attacking and killing many of the remaining Darwin frogs.

Now let's hear from Duke and Uncle Bob:
