Let's be honest--it doesn't take a lot of effort to imagine and envision 99% of all OTRR scripts, particularly domestic comedies like this. . I hoped you've lived long enough to see the podcast era. It will never be as popular as radio was, of course--too much competition from other types of media--but it proves that the kids these days can still follow a fictional story told solely by sound.
