Jan 07, 2021
Produced by Tom Roe.
Vol. 208 The Telephone Call 2 The Wrath of Drumpf. This week our hero makes a call to Georgia.
Thanks this week for the songs from Kraftwerk ("The Telephone Call"), Ray Charles ("Georgia on My Mind"), Gladys Night & The Pips ("Midnight Train to Georgia"), Jim Croce ("Walkin' Back to Georgia"), Charlie Daniels ("The Devil Went Down to Georgia"), The Gregory Brothers ("11,780 Votes"), and Golden Earring ("Twilight Zone"). Clips and excerpts from Rod Serling; Rudy Giuliani; Cartman; Richard Nixon; Wolf Blitzer; Donald Trump, Jr; James Comey; Kristen Welker; Jimmy Kimmel; Seth Meyers; Ted Cruz; Stephen Colbert; Carl Bernstein; Brad Raffensperger; Ryan Germany; Pumpkin from "Pulp Fiction;" J.L. Cauvin; and Montgomery Burns. 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 or three episodes. Then a new show, "Turn on the News," takes its place, in the same time slot, with a similar sound and approach, though about a fictional radio network.
