May 07, 2020
Produced by Tom Roe.
Donald Drumpf Theatre Vol. 173 Live and Let Die. This week our hero says some of us must die.

Thanks this week for the songs from The Beatles ("Getting Better"), Bruce Springsteen ("I'm Goin' Down"), Wings ("Live and Let Die"), Roberta Flack ("Killing Me Softly"), Roy Zimmerman ("The Liar Tweets Tonight"), and Golden Earring ("Twilight Zone"). Clips and excerpts from Rod Serling; Rudy Giuliani; Cartman; Richard Nixon; Seth Meyers; Judy Woodruff; Jared Kushner; Stephen Colbert; J.L. Cauvin; Inigo Montoya; Ari Melber; Chuck Todd; Kristen Welker; Jimmy Kimmel; and Anthony Fauci. An original radio theatre show each week, with most sounds culled from the previous week, about a fictional, theatrical presidency. Contradictions tell the story, with songs, skits, and clips from political news shows and late-night comedy routines. The definition of "radio theatre" is stretched here, with an updated Dickie Goodman and/or Richard Foreman-meets-mashup style sometimes, and a more straightforward take other weeks. Currently airing on 30 or 40 stations around the world, the network has ordered another 11 months of episodes. Anyone who would like to work on a production, or have their work air in this timeslot, should contact info@wgxc.org.
