This show was a REBROADCAST
The Original Performance Date was 2007-09-29

This week's classic rebroadcast: a September 2007 rewind from the Fitzgerald Theater in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Nick Lowe sings "Rome Wasn't Built in a Day" and "Lately I've Let Things Slide," Martin Sheen joins our Royal Academy of Radio Actors for a little drama and comedy from the wireless' Golden Age, BR549 play "The Devil and Me" and "Little Ramona," and Maria Jette performs "September Song" and "Song of the Auvergne." Plus: Pat Donohue leads The Guy's All-Star Shoe Band on the "Milwaukee Blues," the host sings a few Gene Autry songs with help from BR549, and our sound effects man Tom Keith pays tribute to French mime Marcel Marceau. In Lake Wobegon, the Magendantzes add a concrete walleye to their menagerie of yard statuary.
