Theme Time Radio Hour (season 3)


The third season of the Theme Time Radio Hour premiered on Wednesday, October 8, 2008, the same week that saw the release of a new edition of the Bootleg Series, Tell Tale Signs. Somewhat eerily, given that it aired during the week of a worldwide financial crisis caused by the collapse of the credit markets, the first show's theme was "Money: Part 1".
Season Three concluded on Wednesday, April 15, 2009, with the airing of the show's 100th original episode. The theme of that show was "Goodbye".

    Episode 7: War

First aired November 19, 2008
War was an unusual episode in several respects. Although TTRH has aired three 2-hour specials and the unique Time episode ran slightly over an hour, War was the show's first 90-minute episode. War was the second episode not to feature Ellen Barkin's voice in the opening intro, and the first not to use the "Night in the Big City" introduction. Instead, the show replaced the usual opening with a collage of audio war-related clips. War was also the second episode not to have any closing credits in its premiere broadcast, although the credits were added in later rebroadcasts.
