The Radio Broadcasting Company Is On The Air!
Nov 6, 2006
Some of you may remember the old time radio show I did, "The Merklesons." It was supposed to be a small part of a more ambitious project, but got shelved. Now I'm back at it. The original show has been re-recorded, with new material included. So even if you've heard it already, go back and give it another listen.
If you don't know what I'm talking about, here's the deal. I thought it would be fun to produce a radio comedy, or drama, that sounds exactly like you're hearing it in the 40's - scratchy, mono sound coming from one of those old radios. The twist is that the content of the show would more modern. The characters could say things they wouldn't dare say in the 40's. The first episode is a comdey called "The Merklesons." I've created a fictional radio network, RBC (The Radio Broadcasting Company) and sponsor, "Gold Leaf Cigarettes." There's even an original Gold Leaf ad tacked on to the end of the show.
So go check it out, I hope you enjoy it. More shows are in the works, and, as always, your opinions are welcome.
