RAS #134 - The Martian Chronicles

Dec 3, 2013

This week on the show we got a request from a listener.  Always something that I enjoy and I believe that you will to. Darrel, from Vancouver, WA has requested a tale from the great author Ray Bradbury. In addition to our normal segments, “What's That you say” and our story for the week, we have a new news section.  You never know what you might hear, because I am still working it all out. Please let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions.

Our story comes from the 50's OTR series Dimension X.  It is a scaled down version of The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury and It first aired on August 18, 1950.

I had to read The Martian Chronicles for a high school project way back when. The cold war was still a real threat and as a class we all came to that conclusion. Later I remember reading Ray Bradbury talking about it as well.

I found you and it is much easier to leave comments. My favorite book of all time and I think you are right about the cold war thing. - Brian.
