GENERIC RADIO WORKSHOP SCRIPT ARCHIVE genericradio.com/ Welcome to the Generic Radio Workshop's online repository of scripts from the Golden Age of Radio: the original and largest collection of radio transcripts on the World Wide Web.
OLD TIME RADIO RESEARCHERS GROUP otrr.org/pg06a_scripts.htm Original radio scripts have been archived for the following shows.
“Dan, I'm not a Republic serial villain. Do you seriously think I'd explain my master-stroke if there remained the slightest chance of you affecting its outcome? I did it thirty-five minutes ago.”
“The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout 'SAVE US!'...and I'll look down and whisper 'No.”
TRACY: (desperate, over the edge) Because I have needs too, Harold! Did that ever cross your mind? Christ! Did it ever fucking occur to you that I have desires as well? You say how you love me, how you need me, and how I'm always there for you. And you know what? It kills me. I die every time I hear you say those words. It's the bolt of lightning that strikes the tree. It bursts into flames. Oh, but this lightning strikes more than once. It happens again and again and again. And you know what? That tree still burns. because I know that I'll never hear you say how much I need you. And how you will always be there for me. Because I know, dammit, I know!- that it's all a lie.

"I was robbed! I spent the whole night waiting for the Great Pumpkin when I could have been out for tricks or treats! Halloween is over and I missed it! You blockhead! You kept me up all night waiting for the Great Pumpkin and all that came was a beagle! I didn't get a chance to go out for tricks or treats! And it was all your fault! I'll sue! What a fool I was. And could have had candy apples and gum! And cookies and money and all sorts of things! But no, I had to listen to you! You blockhead. What a fool I was. Trick or treats come only once a year. And I miss it by sitting in a pumpkin patch with a blockhead. You owe me restitution!"

GLOSSARY: TERMS FOR SPEAKING ABOUT VOICE
Volume – relative loudness of voice
Pitch – relative highness or lowness of voice
Rate – speed at which you talk
Pauses – small breaks carefully timed for impact, but not too many vocalized pauses like 'er' and 'um'
Vocal Variety – VV refers to changes in volume, pitch, rate, and pauses, and is crucial to making your voice lively and animated. This is one of the main ways to differentiate between reading and performing.
Pronunciation – words should be pronounced correctly and articulated distinctly
SFX- sound effects including slaps kissing sucking etc...
Accent/dialect – regional variations of inflection

My eyes searched once more for that wayward tail of light. A flash at the corner of my vision caused me to turn and catch a glimpse the wounded star sinking towards the horizon. Before I could tell him about it, it had already vanished. Quickly I closed my eyes and made my wish, "I want him to kiss me." I opened my eyes and turned to find him already looking at me, his mouth cracked in a kind smile. I fumbled underneath the blanket groping for his hand; I found it and gave his gloved grasper a squeeze. His blue eyes turned back away setting me free of his gaze .I watched the sky for what must have been a millennia, and just then as I was giving up hope a white light raced across the night sky's zenith. In unison we both exclaimed "did you see that!" He grabbed my hip and rotated my whole body towards him, brushed the bangs from my face and before I knew it his warm lips clasped mine. I felt like a camera crew was about to pop out and reveal it was all a prank. I am wound up bundle of issues and this guy courted me for over a month without so much as a kiss. It was just too perfect for what normally happens in my life. When our lips parted a shiver ran through spine and as I looked into his eyes I could'nt help but say “this is so anime.”

It is awful lonesome around here. I have to go, and well, we'll just see what happens, right. And if it falls off again, Back it will come. That's the plan. Get here by being here. Be here all the time and we will be expected to be here all the time. Come on. Prove I'm not crazy, wouldja?
Jaxson Gonzalez
Oh nevermind. I made a newbie mistake and spoilered our macro. I have been a shitton of resources,so ....
Can you train your voice like other talents? I have had a lisp since I was a kid, can I learn to speak out of it? I also tend to talk more on the nasally side. Are some people just more inclined to be better VAs than others?
Caleb Martinez
Even at the risk of bumping what I hoped would have fallen off the board by the time I got home, I have to answer your sincere question.
The short answer is, "Yes." The longer answer involves knowing how noticeable the lisp is and what causes it. We had a performer on FSA who started out always, saying "I don't think my voice is right for this" and three years later, she retired as one of FSA's most legendary performers. She had a small lisp too, but she worked it into the content and it got better over the time. I do not know if she had any therapy or anything.
If this one survives, it will ever be known as "the one with the spoilered macro"

Ya'll niggas need to start henching for the crooked man.
- He runs fable town
- Pretty damn easy workload its mostly just doing runner jobs and collecting shit from his clients....sometimes with force.
- If your high up enough on the ladder you get exclusive use of the girls at Puddin and Pie. and I mean ANYTHING you want
- Get access to the best apartments in new york rent free.
- Great steady income
- He treats you like a friend and not just some random employee.
- Free Glamors
and if you think he's going to be taken down by the law or anyone else well there's nothing that that flea bitten mutt sheriff bigby or Ichabod Crane can or will ever do to take him down in a million years.

Requesting someone voices blackhat from villianous. Just saying anything in blackhat's voice

To screw up our macro so no one can find us? Power to screw up? Yeah. There are one or two requests I might do, but I feel like I have to do all of them because I fucked up. It will be a triumph of irony if this is the thread that makes it to the bump limit.

Succsessful threads have some qualtities in common:
1. A good dozen-or more, loyal posters and lurkers from around the world who help keep the thread up.
2. An off-site presence. The Drawlthread has the booru and lots of links for books, Win-0-is all links,and the Star Wars thread has its own pastebin of links.
3. Thread is setup, or reset by anyone who uses the same format and similiar or rotating macros
4. Input on thread goals, structure etc... are agreed on by the thread's microcommunity
For us, I hope to build the loyal posters, find more off-site resources, and think about a discord agree on the setup and guidelins and keep it updated in a pastebin, and get input from all of you.
Requesting more macro's too. Just keep the name and you can do whatever feels good.
I think we need to develop a series of questions to ask VA's an other pros who stop in, that aren't all, "How do I get into the business" Something more open-ended like, "What was your favorite role to play? or the most memorable job you had to do?"
I can guarantee three things if this succeeds.
1. More voice actors will visit. In our short time here this month, we've already had two or three.
2. More voice actors will credit Sup Forums for helping get them started. This will take longer but it's good press.
3. Both of these things will bring more traffic to the site.
Any questions? I do want to hear.

And if my manifesto doesn't kill the thread, I'll be surprised. If I was desperate to keep it bumped, I'd post the Conan challenge again.
