Episode: Episode #331: Halloween 1938: The War of the Worlds
Description: This is a broadcast we've been avoiding on this podcast, since it's been overdone by just about every old time radio program in history. But there is still so much interest in this historic broadcast, especially among younger listeners, we caved.

John explains the legend. Happy Halloween.
