re: #261 Bear

Going way way back to preTV some of the radio dramas would make your hair stand up. The way sound could be used to make programs seem real.

The standard example being Orson Welles’ production of “War of the Worlds”.

You can hear the original 1938 broadcast here: archive.org

As you listen, try to keep in mind that Orson Welles was only 22 years old at the time.
