Now with computerized news readers, and fewer meddling reporters, plus aggregated reporting, and automated music. It is often a mash-up of the week's news, and sometimes a radio news fantasy with song parodies and covers all mixed in a style similar to Spike Jones, Dickie Goodman, Dr. Demento, or Richard Foreman with comedy skits, sketches, radio waves, and multiple points-of-view. Produced by Tom Roe. Make sense of the unreality here. Get discombobulated.
