In the early to late 70's NPR attempted to bring drama back to radio. They encouraged many of the playwrights of the era to contribute their work to be turned into a radio production. The result was some fantastic programs with outstanding actors and production standards... in stereo! On this track is "Alice Through The Intercomb".... and remember if the rain they have (2 inches) in the program, happened to be snow.... well it would be 20 inches! :)

Audio Introduction gives brief background of "Earplay" and then goes into a synopsis of this excellent drama by Lee Devin that was aired on NPR in 1973, part of Volume 5 of Earplay series. Very dramatic story... well written... acted... produced with some excellent musical background in sections of this piece. This track will be stored in the Earplay playlist.

Meghan Sapphire joins us today to talk about her hoe-volution. She's been in the radio business for 15 years and you may have heard her reporting traffic or the weather. But you sluts most likely know her from her podcast, Sapphire's Earplay.  We begin the conversation by talking about the prostitute archetype which is coined by Carol Myss and share some of our insane dating stories. Meghan then shares what happened when she finally met a man who matched her freak, how she went from being a pro hoe to a selective hoe, why she thinks people are scared of sluts, and what it was like editing porn. We finish the conversation talking about why some women slut shame more then men and what we hope for our future slutty selves. 

Two stories from the EarPlay collection from the late 1970's... "Intro to Prune Danish" and "Get a Job." Two short stories edited on one track. Interesting and very well produced. Earplay "playlist" holds more stories from Earplay.

NPR's "Earplay" - a short story of "A Short Sweet Life" - Very clever, well acted, VERY different. Runs about 7 min

Bonnie Catcher, Jack Bivens, Bob Hartenburger, and Mary Skoll were the actors, Carl Schmidt was the Director. These are three short (less than 9 minutes each) quite funny and well acted plays that were written for Earplay which was produced at WHA Radio by the University of Wisconsin under a grant from the corporation for public broadcasting. They were originally aired on NPR. Tracks will be stored in "Earplay" playlist. I noticed I spelled Gentleman incorrectly in the photo...I claim seniority!

Earplay with a story originally written by Franz Kafka and adapted for Earplay by John Robinson. Audio intro gives some background on the story... a little "synopsis" :) This is a very well done radio play... all the Earplay stories and broadcasts were first class... NPR has an incredible reputation in supporting the arts.

In ancient Greece, Dynamene is prepared to die from grief over the death of her husband and has barricaded herself, fasting, in his tomb. She has brought her faithful servant along to die with her (a plan that said servant is not 100% on board with). But it's not long before Dynamene is distracted from her death wish by the arrival of a handsome soldier, Tegeus, providing a problem for maintaining her grief in this comedy about love and expectations. Track will be living in "Earplay" Playlist.

This is a NPR Earplay program, written by Anne Leeton centered on the women of the Golden West, Age, Days... Women who lived where men were panning and digging for Gold. The program features several stories about different women and their experiences in the West at the time of the Gold Rush in CA. Around 1848. There was also the Gold Rush in Alaska that started in 1896 and lasted until 1904 when most of the accessible gold had been mined or claimed. The Alaska Gold Rush drew about 100,000 people from all over the world... and at the peak of the Rush (1898) there was 40,000 people in Dawson City.

Pamela has been called a “vagipreneur”.

She finds women who are in their 40s, 50s, & 60s... professional women both hetero and bisexual women... are exploring and expanding their sexuality, taking their sexuality by the reigns and finally paying attention to themselves... they want it all! And newsflash... "Eroticism doesn't age."She explained how nice it is for women to experiment with a female practitioner in a safe space, how women should stop asking for permission to be who they are and tend to their own needs and wants, and ask for support from their partner instead. Take charge!She strives to help women connect with all parts of themselves, thrive in community with other women, and encourages them to play and explore.  Ruan:Ruan on Sapphire's Earplay podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sapphires-earplay/id425291233?i=1000622805333Neighborhood Sex Secrets: affiliate linksBuy links:https://books2read.com/u/3R5MZjhttps://amzn.to/3CVxzw8Ruan's books and audiobooks; https://books.ruanwillowauthor.com/ Support the showSign up for Ruan's newsletters: https://subscribepage.io/ruanwillowhttps://linktr.ee/RuanWillowRuan is a Manscaped Ambassador get 20% OFF+Free Shipping with promo code RUANWILLOW20 at https://www.manscaped.com/ Ruan is a Kiirro Toys Ambassador get 10% OFF with code RUANWILLOW10 at https://www.kiiroo.com/Copyright 2021-2023 Pink Infinity Publishing LLC

The audio introduction will set up this powerful story written by a 21 year old writer in the late 1970's... his first radio production... that was a hit on the BBC and made into a movie in 1978. Earplay was a dramatic anthology series aired on NPR from 1972-1990. "Earplay" now has its own playlist.

From February 5, 1979 on CBS Radio this is the first episode of Sears Radio Theater. The Host is Lorne Green and stars John McIntire and Janette Nolan. Announcer is Art Gilmore. Air check from KMOX St. Louis. Sears Radio Theater was a radio drama anthology series which ran weeknightly on CBS Radio in 1979, sponsored by the Sears chain. Often paired with The CBS Radio Mystery Theater during its first season, the program offered a different genre of drama for each day's broadcast.In 1980, the program moved to the Mutual Broadcasting System and became the Mutual Radio Theater. The Mutual series broadcast repeats from the CBS run until September 1980, when a short season of new dramas was presented. Sears continued as a sponsor during the Mutual run.Monday was "Western Night" and was hosted by Lorne Greene. Tuesday was "Comedy Night", hosted by Andy Griffith. Wednesday was "Mystery Night" with Vincent Price as host. Thursday was "Love And Hate Night" with Cicely Tyson doing honors as host. Finally, Friday brought "Adventure Night", first hosted by Richard Widmark and later by Howard Duff and then by Leonard Nimoy.Actors heard on the series included Parley Baer, Mary Jane Croft, Howard Culver, John Dehner, Virginia Gregg, Janet Waldo, Vic Perrin, Hans Conried, Marvin Miller, Elliot Lewis, Jeff Corey, Lesley Woods, Robert Rockwell, Lurene Tuttle, Eve Arden, Keith Andes, Harriet Nelson, Alan Young, Tom Bosley, Marion Ross, Lloyd Bochner, Rick Jason, Frank Campanella, Toni Tennille, Arthur Hill, Dan O'Herlihy, Jesse White and Frank Nelson.It was produced and directed by Fletcher Markle and Elliott Lewis. The theme was composed and conducted by Nelson Riddle.Though less long-lived than NPR's Earplay or the Mystery Theater, it was an ambitious attempt to reinvigorate a neglected field. Like Earplay, it was broadcast in stereo.

This is Part II of "Judgement" ... the conclusion. Please listen to Part 1 first as there is an audio introduction there that gives background on the series and this particularly powerful BBC production of the play. Part 1 and Part 2 of "Judgement" live in the "Drama/Adventure" Playlist

Audio introduction provides background of this powerful World War II setting play by Barry Cullen and starring Colin Blakelly as Captain Andrei Vukhov. It is a 2 Part series, so look for Part 2 of "Judgement" to complete the story. This will be stored in the "Drama/Adventure" Playlist.

Hello World! The interview recording begins during a discussion about choir, as Bonnie stays active in various ensembles. Bonnie: "What's nice about keeping up with...side gigs of singing is it keeps your voice in check and it gives you an excuse to practice everyday..." From there they discuss college music programs and how they can vary. Bonnie went to Duquesne University for an experimental multimedia and music program (which they would eventually pull the plug on). As a result, she got to focus on the kind of multimedia technical skills she wanted to, within that umbrella. After graduating she toured with a few different theatre companies. "But eventually like, whenever I started doing games ... if you think about interactive cool theatre where stuff happens, and audio happens and visual cues happen, games are pretty much a theatre that you play...when you play a game you are entering in to this world and the experience is like you're sitting in a 4D theatre..." After talking more about education and the changing times, Bonnie steers the conversation towards the gender advocacy perspective of gaming. She's enjoyed seeing the growth of women's participation in the gaming audio industry. She reflects on her raising (in Pittsburgh we should add), as a sole younger sister among several brothers. She remembers playing with all the same toys as her brothers, including the power tools (for instance). Bonnie wonders, if she had been treated differently from her brothers, would she have had the resilience to join and thrive in a male dominated industry like gaming? Bonnie: "This is the interesting part of the interview where I'm left alone..." wherein she drops a fabulous plug for her web presence. After Tangela comes back, Bonnie describes a zombies-themed multimedia production she got to organize in Pittsburgh. A couple of the extras from the production worked for Schell Games. They later recruited her to the company. Bonnie says that getting a bachelor's degree in something, "even if it's math," is important for getting a staffed position at a gaming company. She points out that she likes to see a balance in resumes she looks at, where, yes they have a degree in something pertinent, and they've got some kind of portfolio in related work. After talking about representation and free educational sources, they spent some time discussing social media. Bonnie points shares a little about her time managing social media for multiple theatre related projects and companies. From there, Bonnie shares her perspective on Gamergate. One of her colleagues at the time was the target of some severe harassment. During the Game Developers Conference in July, Bonnie participated in the Loud Secrets of Game Audio Roundtable (presented by International Game Developers Association). This roundtable was organized for discussing sexism and related issues in the workplace. That discussion includes the subject of hiring practices and office politics, and how to combat those issues. These issues are becoming more and more topical across all sectors of the audio industry. Bonnie is on the board for the National Audio Theatre Festival, and reports they just had their first diversity and inclusion roundtable discussion. Bonnie likes the roundtable format over the panel, because it's less structured and more open. She says the best ones she's seen have been the ones that weren't recorded (to save from liability). This episode was recorded over squadcast.fm on October 27, 2021. Bonnie Bogovich always has her fingers in a plethora audio pies! As a sound designer, she has spent over a decade designing audio on a variety of award-winning educational products, virtual and augmented reality simulations, interactive experiences, audio plays and theme park attractions including "I Expect You To Die", Sea World's "Race For The Beach", Legendary's "Annihilator", Earplay's "Jurassic World Revealed," KQMP's "At The Tone", and the upcoming multiplayer...

Introductory audio gives background on the NPR Series "Earplay" and the importance it played in being the most ambitious nationwide projects in the medium of radio in the U.S. during the 1970's and 1980's. "Murder Therapy" written by David Kranes and featuring Ralph Bell, Jane Murray and Ken Jerome . This is a heavy drama built around distinct psychological problems... that involves "Murder Therapy".

Sears Radio Theater was a radio drama anthology series which ran weeknights on CBS Radio in 1979, sponsored by the Sears chain. Often paired with The CBS Radio Mystery Theater during its first season, the program offered a different genre of drama for each evening's broadcast. In January 1980, the program moved from CBS to the Mutual Broadcasting System and was renamed the Mutual Radio Theater. The Mutual series broadcast repeats from the CBS run until September 1980, when a short season of new dramas was presented. Sears continued as a sponsor during the Mutual run. The program turned out to be Mutual's final radio drama series. Mutual continued to broadcast repeats of the program (along with a few previously unaired episodes) until December 1981. Monday was "Western Night" and was hosted by Lorne Greene. Tuesday was "Comedy Night", hosted by Andy Griffith. Wednesday was "Mystery Night" with Vincent Price as host. Thursday was "Love and Hate Night" with Cicely Tyson doing honors as host. Finally, Friday brought "Adventure Night", first hosted by Richard Widmark and later by Howard Duff and finally by Leonard Nimoy. Several actors from the Golden Age of Radio were featured on the series. Among the actors heard were Jim Jordan, Henry Morgan, Daws Butler, June Foray, Parley Baer, Mary Jane Croft, Howard Culver, John Dehner, Joan McCall, Don Diamond, Virginia Gregg, Janet Waldo, Vic Perrin, Hans Conried, Marvin Miller, Elliott Lewis, Jeff Corey, Lesley Woods, Robert Rockwell, Lurene Tuttle, Eve Arden, Keith Andes, Harriet Nelson, Alan Young, Tom Bosley, Marion Ross, Lloyd Bochner, Rick Jason, Frank Campanella, Toni Tennille, Arthur Hill, Dan O'Herlihy, Jesse White and Frank Nelson. Veteran radio actress Peggy Webber was heard on 52 episodes. The program was produced and directed by Fletcher Markle and Elliott Lewis. The theme music was composed and conducted by Nelson Riddle. The program was broadcast in stereo. Though much less long-lived than the CBS Radio Mystery Theater or NPR's Earplay, the series was an ambitious attempt to reinvigorate radio drama.

Host Bradley Metrock (CEO, Score Publishing) interviews Jonathon Myers, CEO and co-founder of Earplay, and his Chief Creative Officer, Dave Grossman. As Earplay is involved in producing interactive games and immersive audio experiences, the episode begins with a discussion of the state of monetization of voice applications, and spans a wide range of video game-related topics, including Myers' and Grossman's favorite video games of all time, and what makes a good audio-based game in the first place.
