Shows For You To Gobble Over Thanksgiving

Shows For You To Gobble Over Thanksgiving

Joy has been at it again, giving me some sharp elbows to the ribs about getting a new radio station up...

...  And how can I refuse, when she's going to be cooking a wonderful dinner for 14 family members on Thursday (although I'm certain to be roped into peeling some of those vegetables...) 

From those clues, I'll bet you can hazard a guess as to what the station is? 

Yes! You guessed it, I've created a new radio station for Thanksgiving.

If you want to indulge in some classic old time radio shows after you've had your fill of turkey I've managed to dig out some real classics for the holiday period.

One, that I'm sure you are going to love, is The Screaming Woman, which was written by Ray Bradbury and was first portrayed by Suspense for Thanksgiving in 1948 under the direction of Anton Leader.

Here's a quick plot summary to whet your appetite.

Margaret O'Brien Stars in the lead role as 10-year-old Margaret Leary. Just before Thanksgiving dinner young Maggie gets sent on an errand to her auntie's house. To get there she takes a short cut through Mr Kelly's Lot, which is a place where she and her friends often play. Today, things look a little different. She goes to investigate and hears a screaming woman - seemingly buried alive.

Desperately Maggie hurries home to tell her parents but they do not believe her. They put it down to her over zealous imagination and say she's been reading too many comics.

Maggie doesn't know what to do but knows that she is the only one who can do something to help the screaming woman.

Margaret O'Brien is magnificent in her performance and at times I was sitting on the edge of my seat!

You can listen to the radio station by clicking on the link below, or by clicking on the RUSC Radio menu option to the left.

However you spend your Thanksgiving holiday, I hope that these shows will add to your pleasure and entertainment.

And so, on behalf of myself and my wonderful wife Joy, I'd like to wish you, and your family, a very Happy Thanksgiving holiday. Thank you again for your friendship and support of RUSC throughout the year.

Happy listening my friends,

Ned Norris
