Good Morning, GWA!

The amazing u/goodboymarcy has done it again with this spectacular script!

This is my first time trying to record a Trans-Atlantic accent (especially for almost 30 minutes), so I decided to record a version with a more neutral accent as well. The different accents make it feel like they're unique characters as my accented version is more poised than my own wild self, so I hope that you enjoy both experiences!

I recorded the intro music to set the jazz scene. Marcy sets up a thorough backstory for this one, so please, read through it before listening!

Centropolis, 1949; a lively city with a penchant for debauchery and known for attracting the worst kind of trouble. And lately, troublesome attractives… the drop dead gorgeous face and angelic voice of that dame came through town and left her mark all over outta nowhere, like some freak twister tearin’ up saloons in the Ol’ West. Thing is, everybody’s heard the girl sing–not a soul’s caught her speaking; not here, not ever. Right around the same time, somethin’ takes the airways at night, somethin’ strange and sultry… makes all the receivers in Central start moaning and cooing and makin’ all kinds of salacious sounds–a rogue radio station known only as RGWA 66.9.

I get a call late last week–some big shot record exec from downtown–says he’s been reppin’ the dame and she’s off the leash. He claims she broke contract ‘cause she’s runnin’ some ‘less-than-decent side gig’, and knew the label wouldn’t let it slide; but that girl, she knows she can take those pipes and sing anywhere she likes, so off she went. Well, the suit says it’s an easy ten grand in my pocket if I can prove the singer and that seductress behind RGWA are one and the same dame. So I say, I’m all in–I mean, I like the girl’s work–both kinds–hell, I’m even a fan; but I’ve done shadier jobs for shorter coin.

But this one–I got a bad feeling about this one… this woman’s trouble. And, speak of the devil… I’d recognize the silhouette of that figure anywhere… I just never thought I’d be seeing it cast up against my office door.

Special thanks to my hubby u/MrRum for helping me edit this!
