Podcast Players: Recent Episodes
MWC
The Podcast Players are amateur actors and actresses who create radio plays. Randy "Shotgun" Shannon travels to area high schools in the Northeast Wisconsin and works with students to create unique productions. We produce public domain or original material. Our productions are recorded live, with all sound effects created by hand, and music added in after for effect. The goal is to create some entertaining episodes, while teaching students about the rich history of broadcast radio.
