Maybe it's because I'm playing some Firesign Theater clips later, but this feels like an ancestor in some way or another. (And I feel like there's a Bob & Ray Connection, here, too.)

I think I heard a "car-crash" SFX in there that I've heard used in countless radio & TV show, and even some movies.

I wish I could play and write songs like this. I would love to make Mills Brothers style songs, if I could only play guitar.

Acknowledging the script? Very cool...
Avatar 👻 Swag For Life Member 8:22pm
Austin Rich:

Unrelated: my boss bought a bunch of Dr. Who scripts. Then he went to a convention, and got a bunch of Dr. Who cast and whatnot to sign the scripts that they worked on. Now he has a lot of VERY VALUABLE Dr. Who scripts for us to sell. If you're a David Tennent fan: my boss has stories about meeting him!

Oh, I see. Looks like he did it on "Suspense"? I might have heard it, but I'm not entirely sure.

If Dimestore Radio Theater runs long enough, I'll probably start running "Suspense." That should keep me busy for a few years.

"Radioland." For some reason, that phrase is so evocative in my head. I love the idea of "Radioland." It's such of mid-century idea, but it really works for me.

That little 1-2-3 bit makes me think of WFMU dj Jim Price.

I should listen to him more. Another personality I'm not as familiar with, but I'm sure I would enjoy.

Jim did a bunch of shows with another legendary WFMU dj, Frank Balesteri aka The Vanilla Bean. It was called Price is Beans. Archives from cassettes are available.

Hey all! Been listening while driving around, doing stuff, and I am also amazed at how modern this humor is. Way back in 1951?! These guys were nutty!
