Episode 100: The War of the Worlds

We’ve reached our 100th episode and as a thank you to those listeners whose support pushed our Patreon page above $100 per month, we’ve prepared a special giant-sized recording for Mercury Theatre on the Air’s legendary version of The War of the Worlds, an adaptation of H.G Wells’ novel about the invasion of Earth by deadly Martians!

Wait, Orson Welles and H.G. Wells were interviewed together? Listen for yourself and find out!
