"Spare My Brother" Part 2, by Jim Dowling on Scratched Up Radio Theater

8:00pm, 8-8-2024

Part Two of "Spare My Brother", written and directed by Jim Dowling, airs at 8 PM on Thursday August 8th on KKRN 88.5 FM, and at kkrn.org. It originally aired on KKRN in April 2018, and was one of our first several broadcasts.

The historic demise of the Ruggles brothers, stagecoach robbers, in Redding California in 1892 is the focus of Spare My Brother. As they reflect on their ill-fated adventure, more serious problems start to brew.

The cast of Spare My Brother consists of:
Nick Brown as John Ruggles
Spencer Deardorf as Charles Ruggles
Dickie Magidof as Sheriff (Tom)
Laura Christensen as Linda
Terri Orwig as Lilly
Kaxia Wilkins as Hannah
Bob Christensen as Gus Hickman
Ragan Ragan as Missouri Bob
Elsie Ritchie as Hiram
Joe Graceffo as Emmett
Linda Ragan as Samantha Little (reporter)

"The Ballad Of John Ruggles" was performed by our host Bob Christensen. The broadcast is dedicated to Bob, Elsie Ritchie and Ragan Ragan.
Lyrics and technical production by Lili Dubois.
