Shownotes
80 Years ago this very night, a nation was riveted with news of an occurring alien invasion..... or so they thought. Since they tuned into the middle of the Mercury Theater on the Air, playing their dramatization of H.G Wells The War of the Worlds. Though announced properly, many people then were into the habit of channel surfing when their shows went to commercial, and so the show in progress was mistaken for an actual alien encounter.
Mike and Sheldon have decided this anniversary needed to be honored and so we review the Orson Wells broadcast that swept a nation by storm on the night it aired, Oct 30, 1938. Join us as we review a radio broadcast on a movie review podcast because why would we do what you expect on Halloween?
