Weekly Program
Songs from Angela Lansbury ("We Need a Little Christmas"), Randy Rainbow ("Rudolph the Leaky Lawyer"), Oscar The Grouch ("I Hate Christmas"), Amber Ruffin ("A Brutally Honest Christmas Song"), Laura Benanti, and oth
NOTE: Show is posted early this week for the holiday. 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 four or five 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.
Clips and excerpts from Rod Serling; Rudy Giuliani; Cartman; Richard Nixon; "The Late Show;" Peter Serafinowicz; Jimmy Kimmel; Melania Drumpf; Trevor Noah; Laura Benanti; J.L. Cauvin.
