<article><p>
Pat Novak, for Hire is a detective drama radio series set on the San Francisco waterfront. The show portrays the city as a dark, rough place where survival is key. The title character, Pat Novak, is not a detective by trade, but he owns a boat shop on Pier 19 where he rents out boats and does odd jobs to make money. The series is known for its fast-paced, hard-boiled dialogue and action, as well as its witty one-liners. Each episode follows a similar formula, featuring Novak taking on unusual or risky jobs, often finding himself mixed up in murder mysteries with sultry female characters and a cat-and-mouse game with Police Inspector Hellman, played by Raymond Burr.</p><p>The show originally aired from 1946 to 1948 on KGO in San Francisco as a West Coast regional program, with Jack Webb starring as Pat Novak and Richard L.
