Volume 142 The Phone Call. This week, our hero tries to answer questions about a phone call to Ukraine.
Songs this week from Tony Bennett ("Rags to Riches"), Billy Joel ("Pressure"), The Clash ("Rudie Can't Fail"), and Golden Earring ("Twilight Zone"). Clips and excerpts from Jimmy Kimmel; Henry Hill in "Goodfellas;" Volodymyr Zelensky; Stephen Colbert; Seth Meyers; Scott Pelley; Kevin McCarthy; Rudy Giuliani; Lester Holt; Hallie Jackson; Sean Hannity; Chris Cuomo; Laura Ingraham; Kate McKinnon, Alec Baldwin, Aidy Bryant, and Beck Bennett from "Saturday Night Live;" Mike Pompeo; Martha Raddatz; Chris Wallace; and John Oliver. "Donald Drumpf Theatre" is an original radio theatre show about a fictional, theatrical presidency, with most sounds culled from the previous week. 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. The network has currently ordered another 15 episodes, but there are threats of cancellation. Anyone who would like to contribute to the show should contact info@wgxc.org.
