When CBS resurrected Jeff Regan, Investigator in 1949, Frank Graham stepped into Jack Webb\\u2019s shoes as the titular gumshoe. The versatile and talented actor created a new Regan \\u2013 less hard-boiled and cynical. Joining Graham in the new series was Frank Nelson \\u2013 frequent radio nemesis of Jack Benny \\u2013 as Anthony J. Lyon, Regan\\u2019s penny-pincher of a boss. It was a union of two of radio\\u2019s most talented performers and a combination unlike any other detective duo. We\\u2019ll hear them in \\u201cThe Little Man\\u2019s Lament,\\u201d originally aired on CBS on November 11, 1949.
