We are proud to announce that Infocom has now made it possible for all
radio listeners to pick up Hitchhiker's! Before it was an interactive
story, before it was a TV show, before it was converted into four
phenomenal best-selling books, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy™ was
a twelve-part radio serial on Britain's BBC. Now Infocom is sponsoring a
rebroadcast of the entire serial on National Public Radio (NPR).

This is radio as you've never heard it before. Conceived and written by
Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide radio serial is hilarious and
contains some of the best sound effects ever produced. Before the
interactive story came out, many considered this radio serial the best
rendition of The Hitchhiker's Guide. If you have never heard it, you will
find it funny, outrageous, mind-boggling, and well worth listening to.

Beginning in January 1985, episodes will be made available to
public radio stations across the country for inclusion in their schedules.
Check local program listings for times — each station puts together
its own schedule independently. If your local public radio station is not
carrying the show, call to point out that it is available and that you are
interested in it (phone calls are surprisingly effective). So tell your
friends ... and don't forget your towel.
