For this episode, we are joined by our esteemed Patreon supporter, Atticus! Atticus has brought us an episode of CBS Radio Workshop, “A Pride of Carrots!” Written and narrated by the novelist Robert Nathan, the story concerns the first astronauts to reach Venus and the fantastical creatures they find there. Will the Earthmen be able to escape the absurd machinations of the Venusians? Does the political satire still hold up after all this time? Did Atticus just sneak an episode of Rocky and Bullwinkle into our podcast? Listen for yourself and find out! Then vote and let us know what you think!
Death to 🥕
Shortly before this episode aired, there was a Robert Sheckley story called “From Cordle to Onion to Carrot.” I think the name “Cordle” may have been a reference.
Death to Carrots!
The only good part of the whole thing.
