One of radio\\u2019s men of a thousand voices, Paul Frees was heard all over the dial during the Golden Age of Radio, as Boris Badenov on television, and as the ghostly host at Disney\\u2019s Haunted Mansion. In honor of this versatile, talented actor\\u2019s birthday, we\\u2019ll hear him in two episodes as The Green Lama, the pulp hero who came to the airwaves in his own detective series. Frees stars as the Lama, aka Jethro Dumont, in \\u201cThe Million Dollar Chopsticks\\u201d (originally aired on CBS on June 26, 1949) and \\u201cThe Adventure of the Perfect Prisoner\\u201d (originally aired on CBS on August 21, 1949).
