Radio Roundup
Apr. 1st, 2013 04:00 pmHEY INTERNET! You have another chance to listen to Wind in the Willows! DO IT. If it doesn't make you smile, you get your money back. Those clever fellows at the BBC went and hid it inside another program so I didn't find it earlier; you have until Friday to listen to it for free but after that you can buy it on AudioGO and treasure it forever.
Aside from that, here are three shows linked by the common theme of American Voices On British Radio:
In The Event of Moon Disaster - A documentary on famous undelivered speeches, from what would have been said if the Apollo 11 team hadn't returned from the Moon, to the speech Kennedy would have given in Dallas, via discarded drafts from G.W.Bush's speechwriters, Nixon's hypothetical non-resignation, the speech Tony Blair cancelled on 9/11, and many others.
The Last Infirmity - Docudrama on the hunt for a Yellow Fever vaccine. It's a good show, but I might not bother to link it, except that I went to Florida for the first time this Christmas and it was very much on my mind the whole time.
Shane - A radio dramatisation of the book that inspired the classic film ... I haven't actually listened to it yet but it was directed by Kate McAll and recorded in LA so I am hopeful but mainly intensely curious.
