    This Is My Best | (27) Heart of Darkness (Welles' first episode as producer and host) | March 13, 1945

    Sponsored by: Cresta Blanca. A trip up an African river...into the heart of darkness! An excellent use of radio. This is one of the best regarded and most typical of the works of Joseph Conrad described as a deliberate masterpiece for a downright incantation.

Orson Welles was a genius - as an actor, a film director - and as the creator of drama for radio, the legendary Mercury Theatre on the Air, which presented so many great classics besides the justly famous War of the Worlds. It is also very entertaining to hear Welles with other stars from the 1930s and 40s in various other radio shows - a time travel to legendary "Radio Days".
