Dimestore Radio Theater’s May the Fourth Special!

WFMU Playlist & Interactive Live Chat (The Digital Salon)

For those of you who live in past – maybe it was long, long ago? – then this holiday might evoke certain kinds of nostalgia that you might have mixed feeling about. So it is our pleasure to zig when you thought we would zag, and instead bring you the first seven installments of the 1935 Flash Gordon radio serial.

And, during a very special edition of Dimestore Revelations, we get into the background of the making of Star Wars, how the Flash Gordon serials inspired it, and how Star Wars inspired the 1980 Flash Gordon movie.

It’s a heaping helping of not-quite Star Wars for your May the Fourth Celebrations.

 

 

 

Enjoy!
