Incomparable Radio Theater 4.10: There You Are: Floyd Collins

Tink carries a rope. Cherish misty steps. K’ronng stabs a cloud. Jaee(’s player) reads her character sheet. Levithia punches the air. Tony Sindelar with Annette Wierstra, Erika Ensign, Kat Griffiths, Kathy Campbell and Monty Ashley.

After weeks of superhero cartoons we’ve moved on to HBO’s Lanterns series. A couple of space-cops with a magic ring that can make anything they imagine manifest before them in physical form set out to solve the mystery behind a mass shooting at football stadium in Nebraska. That’s the pitch. Is it a good show? Yes. You should watch it. But also listen to us talk about it. Dan Moren, John Moltz and Guy English.

Don’t catch the Space Madness, because it’s time to talk about the latest episode of “Strange New Worlds,” in which Trelane puts the Enterprise (except Pike) into a soap opera! Once again, we’re genre hopping—but is “Q episode” not a tried-and-true Trek genre? And does this not emotionally serve Pike, who recently survived a “life-in-a-day” episode of his own? Get your popcorn ready and watch out for evil twins. Scott McNulty and Jason Snell.

Now the curtain is going up, “The Sting” is starting the show! Snappy patter and jokes, along with the star power of Robert Redford and Paul Newman, drive this story of an elaborate con that goes right—or does it?! Also there’s a lot of Scott Joplin music. Jason Snell with Micheline Maynard, Dr. Drang, Monty Ashley and David J. Loehr.

Are you ready for some football? Football is Life is back and your friends Chip, Brian, and Kathy are excited to see some actual football in this show. The Greyhounds are up against Chelsea in the FA Cup, which is certainly exciting; but, there’s also a fair bit of quality time spent with the many relationships on the show. Tune in for some predictions from Chip and Kathy on where things might end up by the season’s end! Chip Sudderth and Brian Warren with Kathy Campbell.

In this edition of Random Pursuit there’s a lot of guessing, many colours, and quite a bit of self-doxxing. Most importantly, a good time is had by all! Erika Ensign and Steven Schapansky with Jay Miller, Jesse Reid, Lex Friedman, Monty Ashley and Scott Ensign.

This week Q takes us to Battle World on My Adventures With Superman. Once that gets sorted out we’re up against the Big Bad. Can Clark get his powers back? Will our gang save the day? Are they going to stick the landing of this fun and unexpectedly thoughtful show? Dan Moren, John Moltz and Guy English.

Jaee jigged when she should have jagged. Tink(’s player) has so many questions. K’ronng reaches out to the porch. Levithia is menaced by a monster. Cherish is livin’ glaive life. Tony Sindelar with Annette Wierstra, Erika Ensign, Kat Griffiths, Kathy Campbell and Monty Ashley.

Inspired by the true story of a man caught in a cavern while spelunking, the show makes references to three generations of one family of Broadway composers. Also, a quick preview of the next run of shows and even some live shows coming up. David J. Loehr.

Is a car wash a building with machinery in it or a robot? This question allows us to flip the “episodes since ‘Robot or Not’ was about robots” sign back to zero. John Siracusa and Jason Snell.
