When I owned several radio stations, we actually did 1940's-style radio plays on Sundays with the crew and sound effects, the whole nine yards. And folks enjoyed listening to it. Our Halloween shows in particular were classic revivals of ancient scripts and brand new radio plays by writers and artists. All original stuff although we cheated a bit and recorded them rather than trying to do them live with foley and all.It was SO much fun. But then again, we were a generation that grew up on the cardboard box it came in was often more fun than the product inside it and imagination was everything. Creativity! THIS is precisely the reason why our nation is in the toilet lately for innovation. Folks would rather be couch potatoes and "absorb content" rather than creating anything novel. :( Radio used to be an art form. Now it's only yelling, screaming and car ads. :( |
