Folks,
My favorite version of The Empire of the Air is the little known radio
drama version written and directed by Dave Ossman of Firesign Theater
fame. This was released on CD around 2004, but has dropped out of sight.
Fortunately, it was included the 70th Anniversary of FM Radio broadcast
from the Armstrong Tower at Alpine, NJ in on 42.8 MC in 2005, and is
preserved here:
