From AudioFile This collection of stories that highlight the twentieth century's most important events is from THE ONION, a satirical print and online newspaper out of Madison, Wisconsin. A hit-and-miss affair, its funniest pieces are about the TITANIC, the Depression and the Apollo moon landing (harsh language on this one). The narrators are great at re-creating the tones and inflections of the radio era. They bounce from outrage to forthrightness to straight news delivery, depending on the story. The sound effects are also very good.
