The National Lampoon Radio Hour
Interrogation of John Wayne
par
The National Lampoon Radio Hour brings the irreverent humor of National Lampoon to radio, with a cast of performers presenting comic sketches and satirical material. Its comedy draws on the magazine’s sharp, often provocative approach to American culture and everyday life.
The program is an ensemble production rather than a single-narrator performance, using character voices and acted scenes to deliver its jokes. The title identifies this recording as “Interrogation of John Wayne,” suggesting a sketch built around the iconic actor, while the show’s broader format ranges across satirical situations and comic performances.
The result is brash, unconventional comedy with the energy of a live-feeling radio revue. Listeners can expect a distinctly countercultural sensibility and a willingness to push at the boundaries of mainstream humor.
This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
