Donald Drumpf Theatre Vol. 199 The Waiting (Audio)

Nov 05, 2020
Produced by Tom Roe.
Vol. 199 The Waiting. This week our hero rants while votes are counted.

Thanks this week for the songs from DJ Shadow ("The Number Song"), Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers ("The Waiting"), and Golden Earring ("Twilight Zone"). Clips and excerpts from Rod Serling; Rudy Giuliani; Cartman; Richard Nixon; J.L. Cauvin; "The Late Show;" Emperor Palpatine; Padmé Amidala; Bane; and Bret Baier. 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 two 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.
