The CBC, in its podcast "Rewind", broadcast the influential May 1954 radio satire "The Investigator" back in March. The program was produced at the height of Senator McCarthy's accusations of Communists working in high levels of the United States government. After the program aired, recordings of it circulated here in the States, denounced by the right and embraced by the left. Even Ed Sullivan denounced the radio play. You can download the mp3 podcast at this link and read about the program at its Wikipedia entry and a 2000 National Post piece about the program.
