Inside the collective mind of The Electric Arc Radio Show

by Chris Roberts, Minnesota Public Radio
Listen to feature audio

St. Paul, Minn. — Chris Roberts traveled to the home of the creators of the Electric Arc Radio Show, a comedic serial radio drama performed before a live audience that focuses on the absurd comings, goings, and wanderings of four writers who live in the same house.

In the attic lives The Electric Arc Radio Orchestra - the house band. Chris was expecting to interview the writers, actors, and musicians about their surreal existence together and the new CD the group is releasing.

Instead, he ended up putting his life in danger.
