The Good Old Days of Radio Show

Episode 429: Coffin In Studio B


Listen Later

Today we have another quietly spooky one. This is the classic "Coffin In Studio B," a script written by the highly original Wyllis Cooper, back in the '30s when Cooper was heavily involved in the legendary (and mostly lost), Lights Out! run. We have it from a short revival series from July 13th, 1946. The story focuses on three men late at night in a lonely radio studio, frantically rehearsing for the radio drama, minutes before it goes live. Maybe the best realistic portrayal of what working on a live radio show was like. Oh, except for that coffin part.
