Radio Rama

[Krsnanatha]

I recall in the early eighties, Srila Prabhupada's disciple Bhakta dasa produced a mock radio show which spoofed modern material society's media and it's ability to sanitize or ignore some of the more tragic aspects of the material world.

There was a game show spoof called "What's Your Karma" starring a "Don Yamaraja" and another skit called "Reality Tours" which imagined a bus load of ordindary folks touring some of the most hellish places imaginable (such as dropping in on the terminal wing of some cancer ward). It was both entertaining and quite strong in the message it was putting forth.

It would seem someone in former President Jimmy Carter's group has decided to actually make an actual "Reality Tour" theme park of sorts as explained in this article. . http://boston.com/dailynews/152/technology/Habitat_for_Humanity_to_open_s:.shtml

By the way does anyone else recall hearing this tape? I still have a copy floating around somewhere in my personal archive.
