The Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) was set up in 1963 to alert Americans, via TV and radio, of nuclear attack. Stations were required to test the EBS once a week, but some got bored of reading the same sombre script, and tried to recite the script as a jaunty jingle. Nuclear war delivered with some easy listening?
I have a bonus podcast episode out NOW on the 1971 event when an EBS test went wrong, and was broadcast across America as a real alert. Find it on Patreon here: www.patreon.com/atomichobo

First in our new series, examining WHEN THE WIND BLOWS, four minutes at a time.
(Please excuse any snaps or clicks you might hear. It's my pup chewing. She's too young to be left unattended, or to sleep soundly whilst I'm recording. Some sounds have intruded, but I have tried to edit out the most obtrusive ones, and thrown some music down over the general snufflings.)
