An intriguing story about alien invasion.

[@gregorycapp6688]

These episodes with Himan Brown as host were rebroadcasts done around the year 2000 on NPR .the intros were redone to remove all references to the CBS network .E.G.Marshell was unavoidable due to his death in 1998 June 13-2020

Himan can't hold a candle to Marshall. :/

[@artmoss6889]

​@@mulemule Marshall was the superior actor, but Hi Brown was one of the most important directors/producers in radio history. In those capacities he had a hand in approximately 30,000 radio episodes.

@@artmoss6889 I did not know that. It would make for an interesting documentary. (For real.)

That was actually kind of touching 😢 ‘Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.’ Or in this case a woman.

Horrible broadcast all around. It was a weak attempt at aping OTR radio from the 30s/40s. It was supposed to take place in 2029, while using vernacular from the 40s.

[@UncleEarl97]

@ACS Shap, you somehow expected vernacular and present day 2020s references in a story written no earlier than the 1970s?
