Show Notes

Happy Thanksgiving! We asked listeners to vote for an episode from a list of titles originally broadcast during the week of Thanksgiving. The results are in and we are listening to “The Thing from the Sea” from Dark Fantasy! Originally aired in 1941 (although according to The Digital Deli , it was broadcast December 5th rather than November 28th), this is the story of a lost ship stumbling upon an island that has just reemerged from the ocean. What became of the civilization that once lived here? What fate does the strange creature in the young woman’s dream foretell? Are you sure you wouldn’t rather vote for The Green Hornet? Listen for yourself and find out!
