Podcast appearances and mentions of orson welles' war

On a warm Halloween Eve, October 30, 1938, during a broadcast of H G. Wells' War of the Worlds, Orson Welles held his hands up for radio silence in the CBS studio in New York City while millions of people ran out into the night screaming, grabbed shotguns, drove off in cars, and hid in basements, attics, or anywhere they could find to get away from Martians intent on exterminating the human race. As Welles held up his hands to his fellow actors, musicians, and sound technicians, he turned six seconds of radio silence—dead air—into absolute horror, changing the way the world would view media forever, and making himself one of the most famous men in America. The revisionism lately of Orson Welles War of the Worlds 1938 broadcast is that it did not affect many beyond l the East Coast and most people did not believe Martians had invaded and were exterminating the human race with heat ray guns and poisonous gas. William Hazelgrove's new book “Dead Air The Night Orson Welles Terrified America,” points to a different America thrown into mass panic from the broadcast produced and directed by the twenty-three-year-old Welles.Did people really believe that Martians were exterminating the human race and did mass panic engulf the country? Willliam Hazelgrove makes a convincing case people did believe the broadcast and the ensuing terror and panic was a real time example of what would happen if aliens ever did land on earth.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"The War Of The Worlds". The most famous radio show of all time. Mars invades New Jersey. + The wireless is interrupted by a special bulletin. "Professor Farrell of the Mount Jennings Observatory reports observing several explosions of incandescent gas occurring at regular intervals on the planet Mars. The spectroscope indicates the gas to be hydrogen which is moving towards the earth at enormous velocity". What is this unexplained phenomena? Most definitely the most famous radio drama ever broadcast and still as gripping today as ever.

Het is zonder twijfel het meest legendarische radioprogramma aller tijden: Orson Welles’ War Of The Worlds. Toen in 1938 dit hoorspel over een invasie van marsmannetjes in Amerika op de radio werd uitgezonden, raakten talloze luisteraars compleet in paniek.In het toneelstuk Orson Welles’ War Of The Worlds wordt een reconstructie gemaakt naar de aanloop en gevolgen van dit staaltje fake news avant la lettre. Schrijver van het stuk Dick van den Heuvel is te gast.

We're back and discussing a story that reportedly caused quite the social stir at the time of its broadcast.  War of the Worlds was a 1938 radio drama that purportedly incited mass hysteria over an other-worldly invasion filled with destruction and violence throughout the Eastern United states....but did it really or was it just hyped in the printed press?  Leisa and I interrogate tantacled invaders spawned from the legend that cemented the fame (or infamy) of a young director/actor named Orson Welles and opened the door for him to do Citizen Kane.  Radio was a newer media and frequently delivered news to American living rooms nation-wide.  It's easy to assume that panic ensued due to the news report format that was 'World's vehicle of delivery to its audience.  How does the evidence for nation wide panic hold up 80 years later?  We discuss what was the new media of the 20th century and contemplate the new media of the 21st...Follow us on Instagram @american.mayhemFollow us on Facebook @AmericanMayhemPodcastFind us on Twitter @Podcast_Mayhem

Tune in today as we are getting into some classic sci-fi with Mr. Orson Welles himself and his Radio Broadcast of War of the Worlds, which has more or less become the most famous radio broadcast in history. In this episode we will give you a history on Mr. Welles' life leading up to the Broadcast in 1938, the panic that it caused, some notable re-makes, and how the real story is probably far different than what most people know. We even give you some thoughts on future versions and the power of media in our daily lives!

American Gods' season two ended with "Moon Shadow," not what we typically expect from a season finale. There wasn't much resolution, heart-pounding action, or massive reveals. And we were left with more questions than answers: Is Mad Sweeney really dead? Why did Wednesday flee? How does the World Tree work? Does Salim own a different shirt? The King Bee dives deep into Orson Welles' "War of The Worlds" while Gene Lyons examines the new Tech Boy and how his powers might make him a god unlike any we've ever seen.

  Parallax Views returns from a holiday vacation with a special on REAL alternative media. First up, a conversation with Mickey Huff, director of Project Censored. Then a discussion with Nathan J. Robinson, founder and editor-in-chief of Current Affairs.Before presenting these two stimulating conversations, however, I open the show with a special musical intro and an op-ed by yours truly on the state of alternative media today. In this segment I discuss how a new, real alternative media is rising up to counteract the phony, false opposition that has tried to claim the alternative media mantle while wholly supporting the status quo and railing against any attempts at truly substantive social change. In particular, I give what I hope is an amusing burial to Infowars' Alex Jones and disgraced ex-hipster Gavin McInnes in light of their spectacular downfall late last year. As these pretenders to the thrown fall down truly alternative voices continue to blossom. Alex "THEY'RE TURNING THE FRIGGIN' FROGS GAY!" Jones and "Mr. Boo-Hoo the Hipsters Kicked Me Out of Their Club" Gavin McInnes of the ̶I̶n̶f̶o̶w̶a̶r̶s̶ DorkWars Squad DON'T BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU HEAR... Project Censored is an organization aimed at promoting media literacy, exposing news censorship, and championing independent, investigative journalism since 1976. Project Censored's Mickey Huff joins the show to discuss this organization's rich history and it's continued work in the 21st century. Mickey helps us unpack how the problems of media so prevalent to public discourse today, such as fake news and junk food news, actually has a storied history long predating the rise of Donald Trump in the 2016 Presidential election. In addition we discuss the new Project Censored anthology Censored 2019, which covers what the organization considers to be the top 25 underreported stories of the past year. Mickey explains why this anthology is subtitled "Fighting the Fake News Invasion" and how the infamous 1938 Orson Welles' War of the Worlds radio broadcast, alleged to have created a mass hysteria in its time, provides an insight into today's predicament. What is the "black smoke" of fake news and how can it be fought? Mickey Huff and Project Censored are here to provide the answers. Mickey Huff CHECK OUT CENSORED 2019, AVAILABLE NOW FROM SEVEN STORIES PRESS! Current Affairs is a magazine of politics and culture providing a left-wing perspective on the news of the day for both the seasoned politico and the casual layperson. Nathan J. Robinson, the magazine's founder and editor-in-chief, brings his youthful exuberance and sharp mind to Parallax Views for a rousing discussion of what sets the political left apart from the political right as well how the left can build a successful movement for the future. The conversation begins with Nathan explaining what he believes are the defining features that define the left, particularly a basic empathy for one's fellow man and a belief in equality and fairness as vital social values. He then goes on to explain how he sees the conservative mindset, in contrast, as being driven primarily by a pessimistic worldview (a point that some right-wing thinkers have actually made themselves) which leads us to a conversation about the right's conception of "human nature" and the contradictions inherent to the libertarian-flavored mythology of American individualism. Nathan J. Robinson This brings us to the topic of the conservative movement's current media darling Jordan Peterson, whom Nathan incurred the wrath of last year after penning a critique of him entitled "The Intellectual We Deserve" (see also: "Dear Lobsters, There is a Better Way"). During this portion of the conversation we discuss what led Nathan, after an initial reluctance, to tackle Peterson's ideology and arguments. He explains that while he felt that Peterson's thinking was less than stellar, the Canadian psychologist's skyrocketing online popularity required a response. From there we dissect some of Peterson's specific (and often peculiar) obsessions starting with his now infamous invocation of lobster hierarchies as a justification for social Darwinism. Nathan and I mention the philosopher Peter Kropotkin and his concept of mutual aid as the counterweight to this kind of argument as well as discussing the immanent pitfalls of applying animal hierarchies to human social relations. We then move onto Peterson's hand-wringing over "equality of opportunity vs equality of outcome". Nathan and I pick apart this false dichotomy and strawman against the left with a little help from the late, great literary icon Kurt Vonnegut and his often misunderstood short story "Harrison Bergeron". A theme that looms over the whole of the conversation with Nathan that particularly asserts itself during this portion of the discussion discussion is the idea of freedom. The left-right divide is often situated as a fundamental debate over equality (left) vs freedom (right), but Nathan argues that the left's goals, contrary to the right's image of the left, are as much about liberatory emancipation as equality and fairness. In this regard Nathan and I discuss how our current consumer society and the problems of inequality it creates actually harms people from all strata of society, top to bottom. From there Nathan and I delve into the right's concentrated and ever-increasing attacks on academia, specifically the humanities and social sciences. Nathan provides his nuanced take on these attacks noting their kernel of legitimate criticism while pointing out the important research the social sciences have contributed and continue to contribute to society. We begin wrapping up the conversation by discussing how factual, logical, and sound arguments are not the only tools the left needs to be successful. In this sense we consider how narratives and the stories we tell ourselves about the world and each other are an additional necessity to the building of a viable left-wing movement. I then briefly allow Nathan to address last month's Democrat Party war of words between supporters of Beto O'Rourke and those hoping for another Presidential run from Bernie Sanders. Finally, Nathan and I close out the conversation with some positive thoughts, something the cheerful editor-in-chief of Current Affairs has become known for, including mention of Nathan's "Thirty Years Hence" (Pt. 1 & Pt. 2) essays that rang in the new year.

80 years ago, Orson Welles caused a panic with his broadcast of “War of the Worlds”. This broadcast, on Sunday evening, October 30, 1938, was realistic enough that some listeners actually thought the Earth was under attack by Martians.  Erika Dowell, the associate director and curator of modern books and manuscripts at Indiana University’s Lilly...

Hoaxes are the topic of this podcast episode that really really happened.  Join the Boys and Ghouls duo as they explore two horrific hoaxes.     First, they take a look at the Orson Welles “War of the Worlds” 1938 broadcast, as well as the H.G. Wells (no relation) Martian invasion novel that inspired it.  Also, they discuss the made-for-tv movie “The Night That Panicked America” (1975) that dramatized the events of the night that people all over America thought that Martians were coming due to innovative radio-play storytelling and convincing foley.   Then, it’s over to England where, on Halloween night of 1992, the BBC ghost story “Ghostwatch” was presented as such a convincing piece of tv-journalism (it helped that real and recognizable tv presenters were playing themselves) that people of the great nation felt betrayed… after feeling very very frightened because its use of the mockumentary medium was some very effective spookery.   So, join Kat and Marshall, for this totally real podcast about some horrific events that people thought were really real.  

In this episode of the Fan2Fan Podcast, host Bernie Gonzalez is joined by fan/comedian/podcaster Chad Lind to discuss Orson Welles and his classic/controversial 1938 War of the Worlds broadcast. They examine the show's production, its reported impact, and how it's a perfect example of a "false document" (a work of fiction with elements of truth purposely inserted to make the fake feel real). Bernie and Chad also talk about Orson Welles and his legacy as an innovative actor, director, writer, and producer. Please rate and review the Fan2Fan Podcast on iTunes!

Welcome back to the Horror 101 podcast! Another Halloween is upon us! This year we're featuring a television special which was broadcast by the BBC1 back on October 31st, 1992. Not since Orson Welles' War of the Worlds radio broadcast in the 30s has a live show ever caused so much uncertainty and panic. Way before mass communication like the internet was available as a social crutch to validate the facts, this show took an unprecedented approach at reality TV as real journalists were used in a mockumentary which investigated paranormal activity. All the stops were pulled to invent a realistic and frightening scenario which many viewers believed was really happening. Its quite possibly the most effective and terrifying hoax ever released on television and has been the influence for several reality TV productions that followed. And for these reasons the Horror 101 team is spotlighting BBC's Ghostwatch starring Michael Parkinson and Sarah Green. We take some time to remember The Godfather of Gore, Herschell Gordon Lewis who passed away the day we recorded. Join us for this year's Horror 101 Halloween Special! Show Highlights: 01:00 Prelude to Terror... 03:10 Halloween III revisit??? 04:35 Retraction from the Tales From the Crypt show... 06:15 Remembering Herschell Gordon Lewis... 10:30 "The program you're about to watch..." 12:08 Using real news people and journalists... 14:50 The insidious disappearing spectre... 17:30 The 'Pipes' sightings... 18:30 Gloryhole...(its not what you think) 20:20 The hoax within a hoax... 22:00 Nood's problem with the host... 23:23 From disarm to alarm... 26:30 And now you question your reality... 33:00 The public outrage... 35:08 Scoring the show... 37:40 Conclusion...thanks for listening and Happy Halloween!

Spark Youth Producers perform the iconic radio play "War of the Worlds" on this episode of Radio Uprising. Later we discuss the evolution of news and media broadcasting, focusing on the impact news programming has on public perception. Finally we discuss the possibility of recreating a scenario of mass hysteria, akin to the hysteria experienced by the radio listeners hearing Orson Welles' "War of the Worlds" for the first time, using today's new media, including television, social media, and photoshop. 

In part one of this very special Halloween edition of the Golden Age Radio podcast, Bob Gariepy presents the legendary "War of the Worlds," a spooky suspense story about martian invaders attacking Earth. Originally broadcast in October of 1938, the show was said to have been so convincingly produced that listeners who missed the intro feared that an actual alien invasion was taking place.

On October 30, 1938, Orson Welles and the Mercury Theater on the Air, broadcast a dramatization of H. G. Wells' novel "The War of the Worlds". This broadcast caused widespread panic in the United States as listeners believed that we were truly being invaded by Martians. On this episode of Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site, we look back to that evening 75 years ago, and discuss the many contributing factors that made this broadcast believable. The state of the world then which was heading toward war, the listening habits of the American public, and the infallibility of radio at that time, all contributed toward the panic that engulfed thousands of listeners. This fascinating event is truly worth remembering and more so on the 75th anniversary of this famous broadcast. In addition, we ask the question could something like this happen again? For the answer, as well as an enjoyable look back at the Golden Age of Radio, join us on this episode of Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site!
