Thanks for the songs from Golden Earring ("Twilight Zone"), A Gift From Todd remixed by Vinny Marchi (“Hostile Government Takeover”), Nick Lowe (“Cruel to Be Kind”), Kendrick Lamar (“Not Like Us”), The Clash (“Know Your Rights”), and the Talking Heads (“Road to Nowhere”). Clips and excerpts from John Oliver; Steve Bannon; Russell Vought; Hakeem Jeffries; Major Garrett; Dana Bash; Kristi Noem; and Kaitlan Collins. Episode 225.
"Donald Drumpf Theatre" is the weekly radio theatre show about a fictional presidency, with parody radio coverage of the radio and its headlines. Now with computerized news readers, and fewer meddling reporters, plus aggregated reporting, and automated music. It is often a mash-up of the week's news, and sometimes a radio news fantasy with song parodies and covers all mixed in a style similar to Spike Jones, Dickie Goodman, Dr. Demento, or Richard Foreman with comedy skits, sketches, radio waves, and more. Produced by Tom Roe. Clips and songs are from some of the sources below.
