WARNING: Sanity Threat
BixLives!
A 30 minute radio play that bests Sophocles' Oedipus Rex. Plus, an Agnes Morehead performance powerful enough to make you sterile. In less than 30 minutes, this play reverses 2000 years of successful parenting. I might be underrating the dangers but I'm not easily alarmed. Alas, your sanity is threatened. You won't be celebrating Mother's Day for a couple of years. Long-term, in-patient care is not inevitable. Anti-psychotic meds have dramatically improved. PTSS is not necessarily permanent. Employment is possible. You might get a job closing the eyes of sardines in the vacuum tin, prior to being sealed. No wants to open a tin of kippers & see 48 dead eyes staring at them. However, BEFORE you listen to this play, consider; you cannot UN-RING a bell. How did this script creep past the network censors? Good question! They probably didn’t know that the gun was loaded. CBS still has a LOT of explaining to do. Enjoy!
