The Control Group

  • Summary

  • In season two of THE CONTROL GROUP (Civil Defense), the airwaves are filled with announcements of a nuclear attack on the United States. As panic threatens the community of New Canaan, a housewife (Tess Malis Kincaid) tries to protect her daughter (Allie Ficken) from both the atomic and the human dangers that surround them. Woven throughout the story are fragments of “Quasar-1,” an animated children’s television program about a space pilot (Hannah Fierman) assigned to protect a distant planet from self-destruction.

AMAZING!!

I loved the radio drama feel to it especially the little ads that run during the episodes.

There’s a lot of opinion podcasts, but not enough radio dramatizations.

….and certainly nothing this good!! Love it!
