The National Lampoon Radio Hour
Festival of Summer Reruns
by
The National Lampoon Radio Hour brings the irreverent humor of National Lampoon to radio, with a comedy ensemble performing sketches and satirical material. Its humor draws on the magazine’s sharp, often outrageous approach to American culture and everyday life.
The program is built around performed comedy rather than a single narrator. The cast shifts among characters and situations, using voices, dialogue, and comic scenes to deliver its jokes. This recording is identified as a “Festival of Summer Reruns,” suggesting a selection of previously aired material.
The result is an energetic, sometimes provocative comedy show with the loose variety of a radio revue. Listeners can expect a mix of satirical observations and character-based humor, presented in the distinctive irreverent spirit associated with National Lampoon.
This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
