Radio Roundup

[tealin]

1984: Part II is up, for completeness' sake – I'm becoming more comfortable with blaming the dramatist for my problems with Part I after reading his writeup, but Part II has a possible underground resistance (for which I am a sucker) and actual peril, as well as some philosophy, so that was an improvement.

The Wind in the Willows is about as different as you can get while still being a radio play and is so delightful I grin all the way through. It's sort of half radio play, half concert ... I dunno, it works, just give it a listen. As you can see it ended up on ye doodle pad, which should be no surprise considering it's basically Edwardian Redwall. Listen quick, though, because it expires Saturday!

Barricade Week on Les Miserables is all in one chunk now, for your listening convenience. The omnibus edition expires Sunday so if you just can't get enough of endearing and otherwise intelligent young men throwing themselves away on a lost cause, cram it in before then.

This is your weekly reminder that Day 6 is always worth listening to: this week we have humour in religion, why some people are making a hero of Chris Dorner, insight on the Westboro Baptist Church (you know, them) from a banished member, and other assorted bits.
