Chicken Man

Party at the Chicken Cave, Part 2 of 3

English · Humor, Radio, Satire

Chicken Man is a comic radio series centered on the mild-mannered Benton Harbor, who becomes a crime-fighting hero despite having no special powers or remarkable abilities. His earnest attempts to do good, and the contrast between his ordinary nature and his heroic ambitions, are at the heart of the show’s humor.

The program plays as a fast-moving audio comedy, using dialogue and sound to bring its characters and situations to life. Its playful take on superhero adventures makes room for absurdity and gentle satire, while keeping the focus on Chicken Man’s well-meaning efforts.

With its distinctive hero and light, offbeat tone, the series offers a cheerful send-up of crime-fighting stories. This installment is identified as the second part of a three-part story titled “Party at the Chicken Cave.”
