...I WAS A COMMUNIST FOR THE FBI

In addition to being a lemonade junky, I am also an old time radio junky. I highly recommend the American Council for the Blind's Radio Treasure Trove.

Today, I got to hear an episode of one of my favorite shows, I Was a Communist for the FBI! This ridiculously wonderful early 50's era drama tells the story of undercover FBI agent Matt Cvetic, a loyal servant of all things American, who fools the evil Communists into thinking he's a loyal member of The Party. The best part about this show is that, though it takes place solely in the United States, all of the Communists have great Russian accents and outrageous 'Russian-esque' names like Comrade Johnsonovich or Comrade Mitchellslav. Apparently the show was actually (loosely, I assume) based on the experiences of a real guy named Matt Cvetic, and there was a movie, as well...
