Radio Drama Revival – Episode 164

This week we return to and wrap up our series on ghosts – the spooky, rather than the malevolent type.

Our featured artist is Never Paid Radio, a group out of Prescott, Arizona that first introduces us to a painting of a train depot near the Grand Canyon… A place where a man had an extraordinary experience and lost someone, seemingly forever.

That’s “The Depot,” followed by “Can’t You See the Possibilities,” a story of invisibility and its potential – and downfall!

Finally, we round out this mega-episode with a moving portrait of World War I by the Wireless Theatre Company called Dulce Et Decorum Est Pro Patria Mori.
