4 NOV 2026 · Archie sees a chance to catch an escaped prisoner and impress Veronica. His plan has all the confidence, and all the complications, you would expect.
In Nazi POW in Riverdale, a newspaper report sends Archie and Jughead into action. Archie thinks capturing the fugitive will make him a hero. The trouble is that being certain about a suspect is not the same as being right.
This 1945 instalment of Archie Andrews combines a wartime premise with the misunderstandings of teenage comedy. Familiar Riverdale ambitions turn a serious-sounding headline into a comic adventure driven by Archie’s eagerness to prove himself.
Listen for how the boys interpret what they see, and the gap between their heroic expectations and the situation developing around them.
Episode: Nazi POW in Riverdale
Series: Archie Andrews
Original broadcast: 23 June 1945
Listening themes: mistaken identity, teenage schemes and Riverdale comedy.
