Show XLIX

Show XLIX of It's All Been Done Radio Hour was performed at MadLab theatre in Columbus, Ohio on Saturday, July 13, 2019 at 5PM. It was written by Jerome Wetzel and directed by Samantha Stark.
This was the program's fourth anniversary show and the first time the full 80-minute running time consisted of a single story: Packer & Ratcliff "The Pursuit of Packer."
The warm-up for the show, usually done by an outside group (mostly The Good, The Bad, & The Geeky), was instead performances of four Radio Hour musical songs, showcasing some of our favorite numbers from the past few years.
Noah Martin was scheduled to reprise his role as Donald Trump. Unfortunately, Noah was not able to make the show and was replaced by Joe Morales. Narrator Chris Allen also took the month off, and Ella Palardi subbed in.
Former cast member Amanda Iman was invited back to play a sizeable role as Ragina and a small part as Amber Showers. When she declined, Ragina was left out of the story entirely and Kristin Green once more played Amber, which funny enough, she also played in the original performance of the episode the reprised scene came from.
A trailer was released for this show.
The air conditioning in MadLab was out during this show, so fans were run during rehearsal and the stage lights were kept very low.
== Segments ==
There was just one segment, Packer & Ratcliff "The Pursuit of Packer." Characters from Universe Journey, Daniel Kravitz, Chosen One, Morning Show, The Scary Dead, and Pornstar Detectives were encountered, but only in service to the Packer & Ratcliff story. Some actors played multiple roles.

== Suggested Music ==
Cast member Keith Jackson suggests songs that would go well with these episodes. The music was not used in the show, nor were any rights obtained.
Song 	Artist 	Notes
"Giorgio Moroder" 	Chase 	
"All the Time" 	The Strokes 	Search ALL THE TIME.
"I Predict a Riot" 	Kaiser Chiefs 	The Packer pursuit is narrowed to the time of the Zombie Apocalypse across the 13 dimensions. Larry (Shane Stefanchik) witnesses his own future demise in a skirmish from The Scary Dead. Serendipitously, the first line of this song is "Watching the people get lairy is not very pretty I tell thee." 
"In Between Time and a Race" 	Van Defrans 	
"Damned for All Time / Blood Money"	Jesus Chris, Superstar	The immortal Packer is now stranded without a time machine and seemingly doomed to spend eternity in one timeline. Chase, the actor who voices Packer, also played Judas in a production of Jesus Christ Superstar. Judas sings an especially relevant refrain from the song's chorus "...I really didn't come here of my own accord/ Just don't say I'm/ Damned for all time."
"Something You'll Never Find" 	Barenaked Ladies 	"You're looking for something/ That you'll never find/ You've got the questions/ You've got the TIME😁🙃😉/ You've got the bruises/ To show you've been blind/ 'Cause you're looking for something/ That you'll never find."
