My wife and I just finished listening to this on an antique Motorola 6y console tube radio. Fantastic work. We both loved it.
Thank you! I so appreciate it - wow, I bet it sounded really great on that tube radio - the tones are so warm and rich! Nothing like it!
@@JerryScullion Yes, they have a unique sound. Really meant to be payed attention to and enjoyed. It's awesome to dim the lights, sit and listen to a radio drama or two. Extremely relaxing stuff.
@@FirstLast-vr7es I love that - my brother in law has a Blaupunkt from the 40's that has a similar 'warm' sound - I love that you are playing this sort of stuff through it - perfect!!
❤
This is what we need more of now a days like podcasts there will be radio stories/dramas
This was fantastic. The story could use some tweaks, but the voice acting was great on all counts, and you nailed the "feel" of an Indiana Jones adventure. I'm not usually a fan of audio dramas, audio books etc., but I could easily see myself listening to a whole series of these. Thank you for helping Indy go on one more adventure!
My Gosh - you made my day! I put so much into this, and it's really, really humbling to hear a wonderful compliment like that. thank you!!
@@JerryScullionLeast I could do. I've been looking for more Indy or Indy-style adventures ever since I realised the series is definitely over with Dial of Destiny last year. Sadly there's not much out there that measures up, and the little that does I already knew. So unexpectedly finding your production was like finding a lost treasure. It belongs in a museum! :)
I can almost see Harrison Ford pointing at everyone and everything.
Thank you!! That made my day! I really appreciate it!
Well, compared to his retirement plan in Indiana Jones 4 - The Disc of Diarrhea it simply can't be so much worse. 🤣
What a great radio play this is. Thank you, I enjoyed it from the first to the last minute.
Wow - thanks so much! It was a blast to record, and I truly only ever "heard" it fully when it was assembled and completed - so, I feel the same way! Thank you!
This is a great Indy adventure.
Do more of these please
Fan-funding is so low that it rarely ever is worth the time wasted on it... 😢
Quite a few comments about the “bad” French accents. Just want to say: I am French, and yes the accents are forced and fanciful, BUT I really did not care and I recommend you get over it because you would miss a super cool experience. I can’t imagine the work behind this audio. Having all these characters with good development in less than 2 hours is impressive. The voices are solid if not excellent (Marcus and Henry are absolutely fantastic, Indiana and Marion, if not identical to the movies, are very intelligently done so that you can totally do with the tone differences, Salah is good too). You can picture a lot of scenes in your head, thanks to the smart writing and the sound engineering. This has been the thing I’ve listened to for the past months now, always falling asleep in the middle of the story (but not from boredom). I finally really finished the whole thing without missing a part. It might be not perfect (for example I’m not really digging the supernatural part in the end) BUT I can only congratulate the team behind this project which is made available for FREE! You properly captured the spirit of Indiana Jones stories, with good references/easter eggs (the Elsa files, the young guide’s name at the end, etc.) and in my crave for more Indy stuff (really happy for the fifth movie btw, I enjoyed it a lot), it’s a real treasure.
Thank you.
Wow -thank you so much, Jean-Baptiste - really, really appreciate you taking the time to comment and leave your thoughts. Truly. And, it was a lot to put together, with people all over the country, doing their parts and then getting it all assembled, etc. A true labor of love, and I love how it came out. This was back when there was no more Indy projects on the horizon, so it was 'all we had' "Indy-wise" - and it was great to see it come together! Thank you again - I really appreciate your comments!!
Just stumbled upon this and I could not be happier about it. If only there were more like it!
Love the little musical nod at 34:53 ;)
@@joehooson7254 Awesome! That made my day! Yes, this was indeed a true labor of love by all and was a lot of fun. I wish there was a follow up as well! :)
There is one more: ua-cam.com/video/i40s9t5v6pg/v-deo.html
there is quiet a few star wars and james bond radio dramas if your interested.
It is exquisite. Great acting. I could recognise the voices and see the faces of all the actors. Amazing voice similarities. Kudos to Pendant audio. 🙇
Thank you! It was so fun to do, and even for me, to finally hear it when it was 'fully assembled"!
Indy's dad is hilarious. Thank you much.
@Jerry Scullion, I listened to this years ago and loved your voice work as Indy, you really understood and utilized the nuances in Ford's cadence of speech. Also, whoever did Marcus was SPOT on and I could have sworn Denholm Elliott was in the recording booth!
Thank you so much - this was so fun (and challenging) to do, but it really came out great. I always wanted to post this all in one audio file, but was hard to track down the originals, but i finally was able to. Thanks again for the nice words - I did try to mimic the style of cadence that Ford does as Indy, and the supporting cast was really great as well. Marcus was dead-on!! :) And, it's cool that you listened to this back in the early days of Pendant Audio Productions! :)
@@JerryScullion Back in 2010 I discovered Pendant Audio and listened to hundreds of episodes, especially their Superman: Last Son of Krypton.
Thank you so much for putting this together, it was well worth all the effort it took!
I kid you not, I'm in tropical North Queensland on my veranda listening to this enthralling cast and a 'giant' grasshopper/locust has just landed on my right thigh and scared the living daylights out of me!
It must be dead by now…..
Don't worry, just another Indiana Jones fan from an unexpected species. 🤗
Thanks for this new discovery for me!!!
Club "Solo"... very good 😁
What is the timeline placement for this? I'm a nut for cannon
The story is set in 1941 , essentially after The Last Crusade, which is in 1938 :) Thanks!!!
Indiana’s voice actor does a spot on impersonation of Ford.
Wow, thank you - that was me! I really appreciate it!!
@@JerryScullion I really liked it and you did a great job
I used to love pendant productions, Brassy battalion etc. Great that this is on UA-cam still.
It was a great adventure to listen to.
Awesome- thank you!!
Thanks Jerry, I used to watch these with my dad Jerry Sr. before he passed🥰 nice charger 😊 he had 67 Camero my auntie had yellow chevelle
Hey Melissa, thank you so much. I love that you watched these with your dad. I watched them with my son as well, and we quote these lines back and forth. It's things like this that make those special memories that only you and your dad could share. He sounds like a great man, and I'm sorry for your loss, no matter when it was. Sounds like he did things right in raising you, too. Melissa, you absolutely made my day today. :)
All my girlfriends thought my dad looked like Sean Connery, he just loved that. And he was bravest, toughest, most adventures man I've ever known. We moved to Alaska from Kansas when I was 5. He made me the adventurous, tough, explorative, woman I am today... I love you dad❤
Really enjoyed this. Thank you
I remember listening to this way back when it was available, its actually not half bad. The story is fun and clever, and it has all the big ones, Marcus, Indys father, and of course Sallah. its pretty much an all hands on deck story.
Thank you! Appreciate it!! It was a really great to do back then, and I think it came out pretty well. It just shows the breadth of the Raiders universe, and raises the question (to me) as to 'why' we didn't get more Indy through the years? :)
@@JerryScullion What is Marion saying at 59:02? I could never make it out
@@Bondmanproductions Pretty sure it's "I thought that was obvious, but maybe only to us with brains"
@@JerryScullion NAILED IT!! she spoke a little muttled but yes thats it! thanks Jerry! btw im in voice over myself. if you need an actor id be happy to oblige
Antoine's outrageously silly French accent took a bit of getting use to , reminds me of John Cleese taunting the English in The Meaning of Life , except it sounds as though Cheech Marin is playing the part . I found , for the first 15mins or so , the delivery/dialogue a bit wooden , but , it settles down and improves significantly as the story takes off . Just over halfway through , thoroughly recommended .
Thanks, Adz, appreciate the comments. This was a lot of fun to do - let me know what you think when you get finished!
@@JerryScullion ha ha , will do .
- I kept dozing off , I'll have a ponder back through , see if I can remember where the haze set in . Shortly after my comment I suspect .
The haze was down to me , not the production - I hasten to add...
What’s the song at 5:02
@@micheleebling9196 I actuall found it a while back it’s called “String of Pearls” by Glenn Miller not “In The Mood” but thank you!🙏
Indi looks like he is walking out of class after the teacher yelled at him
Very well done, love it.👍👏
A cracking yarn, this. Some very creditable performances, particularly the Jones Boys. Shame about Antoinne, though. I’ve genuinely never heard a worse French accent.
Bang on dude , it was almost painful until I got attuned - I , almost , gave up . Glad I didn't tho , as found it a relaxing , funny , easy listen .
From Kathmandu I can imagine Sean Connery & Harrisson Ford ! 🤩👍
That is the best compliment you can give, bar none! Thank you!!
The Knock kncok "Hallo" at 23:17 cracked me up!, cause it sounded exactly like a Danish person saying it XD
Really great job this was a lot of fun.
I listened to this a few months ago, and liked it. Unfortunately, I just tried to listen to Indiana Jones and the Bridge to Yesterday, and had to dump it a few minutes in. There is a problem with the sound quality of the talking part, and also, the music and background sounds drown out the talking. Raising the volume to hear the talking better won't help because that also raises the volume of the music and background sounds. It also doesn't make the dialog any clearer. I wanted to leave this comment on that page, but the Comments section for that page is closed, so I decided to leave my comments here, since it's a related audio story.
i felt the same. bridge to yesterday was a mess.
Tony's Lovely "Lamb." 😉
MARION: I love you.
INDY: I know.
Killer job !
Any chance of another production? Its sooooo good.
Unfortunately, only one Indiana Jones, but everyone I did this with makes shows over at pendantaudio.com/. They did a real good James Bond a few years back - archive.org/details/jamesbondtotheend
@@JerryScullion I've listened to this numerous times. Its so good that I can close my eyes and imagine the original cast playing it. I prefer IJ over JB. You guys did a fantastic job bringing IJ back to live.
@@chaikohmin Thanks so much!! This was an absolute blast to do, and then when even I heard it finally all assembled, it was awesome. I feel the same way you did - it makes me really want more Indiana Jones.
Enjoyed the show, but I'm puzzled. There are over 28,000 views, but only 325 likes. How come there aren't many likes? I get that there are going to be some people who don't like a show. But the percentage of likes here vs views is way out of whack. The only thing that makes any sense is that maybe most viewers didn't bother to hit the LIKE button. I do sometimes forget, but most of the time I do manage to hit the LIKE or DISLIKE buttons.
While I prefer video media over audio media, I do like audio stuff too. I mostly watch video media on my desktop computer, and mostly listen to audio media on my phone. I found out early on that audio media uses less battery charge than video media, so the battery charge lasts longer. Since I don't need to watch the screen for audio stuff I keep the screen dimmed down to about 20%, unless I decide to watch a TV show or movie on my phone. This makes the battery charge last even longer.
Between podcasts, talk sites, online radio stations, radio plays, audio books, and music, there is plenty of stuff to listen to while I eat or do chores.
Anyway, enjoy this and other audio programs.
Wow - thank you for that observation Questor - I was noticing the same thing - ah well, could be worse - it could be 300 "dislikes'!! :)
People start it so it appears in their history. Like a bookmark whilst deciding what to watch. That’s what I do
I love this even with bad accents the story is fun
Uh im putting this on right now!
Wait, so all of this was made by fans? This isn’t an official novel that was simply adapted?
Correct- this was done by www.pendantaudio.com/ back in the day, with a group of like -minded people who enjoyed radio drama acting.
Story was pretty good, the accents were good enough. It's like complaining about Star Wars special effects from 1970s, comparing them to now. The 1970 Star Wars is still better than a new special effects we have. Sometimes bad accents does not make a bad story. I think it's called suspension of disbelief.
Thanks, Derek! Great insight!
Really club solo the singer armadala
Well done 👍
Wouldn’t it be good if film producers tried their hand at audio productions including John Williams
24:35
Pants!
low key worst french accents
You can just say "bad French accents", you don't have to put "lowkey" in front of it. It's not like it reduces your insult.
FIDEL. Oh my fucking god.
The accents are atrocious.
1:06:37 "Mon petite cherie"?? They don't even speak actual French ;-)
This audio is horrible I don't know who engineered this but compression you need compression this is pathetic damn near unlistenable
Can hear it perfectly fine.
Keep trying 😂
Would be better if not in character with tv , and ,you no Jedi, voice , almost radio , running out of fiction stories ,
Listening to Indiana Jones on the radio is like a radio version of Tom and Jerry. Hopeless.
Tons of action series - adventure, science fiction, horror, etc., were on the radio from the 30's through the late 40's. You just have to use your imagination. Most people have forgotten how.
You do realise that audio drama adventure is older than television!
I thought Sean Connery was in this. Love what this is? Can you do more
Sounds great, why not ask yhe actual cast to voice it.
