Shows are 1/2 hour long, so the second starts at 8:30 if you didn't want to join in the middle.

So the second is 'And the Moon Be Still as Bright,' from Bradbury's "The Martian Chronicles," one of my favorite "novels" as it were. A really wonderful view of the future and finally reaching out for the stars, tinged with sadness. "We Earth Men have a talent for ruining big, beautiful things."

Thanks for listening, mystery listener. :)
Ideally, I'd hoped to post a mention of the radio show surreptitiously from work, but that never happened. I'll try to alert people earlier next time as I know there are a few out there who'd like to listen.
