Show XIII

Show XIII of *It's All Been Done Radio Hour* was performed at MadLab theatre in Columbus, Ohio on Saturday, July 16th, 2016 at 3:30PM. It was written and directed by Jerome Wetzel. Because it was the first anniversary show, a fourth segment was added over the customary three. With the additional music (see below), the show ran more than ninety minutes long.

In keeping with the anniversary occasion, most of the segments were more pivotal than usual. *Universe Journey* ended a six-episode miniseries (and its first season). *Pornstar Detectives* resolved the fate of a recurring character in a non-traditional episode in which there was no mystery (which also happened to be its season two premiere, though it was not called that at the time). And *Daniel Kravitz, Chosen One* seemingly ended with the death of a lead character, Abby Reynolds.

Show XIII featured live music by the band So Long, Stargazer, which covered *Radio Hour*'s theme songs, as well as playing some of their own, original music. The theme song covers can be found on the podcast episodes released. A special podcast episode containing SLS's version of "Welcome to Our Show" and some of their own music, performed before the show and during a commercial break, was released as podcast episode 52. Singer Chase McCants did the intro for the show over music from the band.

Cast member Wendy Parks was not able to attend this live show, although she pre-recorded a phone call for the *Daniel Kravitz* segment. Cast member Katelyn Hamilton was scheduled to be present, but had to call off, resulting in guest star Shannon Marie Watts substituting in for the recurring role of C'mon Ambassador Tizz in *Universe Journey* and Katie Boissoneault filling the guest role of Geneva Pines.

*Radio Hour* started on the 2nd Saturday of the month, and usually sticks to that pattern. However, five monthly shows have been on a different Saturday, four in this first year at MadLab because the show was added to the schedule late, and this was the first of those occurrences.
