Candy Matson, YUkon 2-8209 was a detective drama radio show that featured private investigator Candy Matson, known for her sassiness and fearlessness. Set in San Francisco, the show's premise revolved around Matson solving cases in real Bay Area locations, often ahead of her love interest, Lt. Ray Mallard. The show opened with a ringing telephone and the main character answering it with "Candy Matson, YU 2-8209," followed by the organ playing the theme song, "Candy." The show's tone was marked by a blend of suspense, humor, and clever, caustic responses to threats from the unflappable, blonde sleuth.</p><p>Candy Matson, YUkon 2-8209 first aired on the NBC West Coast in March 1949 and ran until May 1951. It was created by Monty Masters and starred his wife, Natalie Parks. Candy Matson was popular in San Francisco, even receiving the local newspaper's "Favorite Program Award" in 1950. However, the show failed to secure a sponsor throughout its run. Only 14 of the 92 episodes are known to still exist today, with additional episodes preserved in audition shows and radio theater adaptations by producer Joe Bevilacqua.
