Old-Time Radio Essentials Ep 13

It's the Old-Time Radio Essentials Season Two opener and PANDEMIC SPECIAL! Pete, Paul and Dave bring you "The Peoria Plague", a one-shot, independently produced radio drama, made in 1972 in Peoria, Illinois. Famous now for its depiction of a quickly spreading plague, told through live "news" reports (paralleling "The War of the Worlds"), this show seems to have had no impact on the people of its time. We'll get into that in our post-show discussion. Meantime, don't leave your house -- there's ZOMBIES!! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
