The Resistible Rise of J. R. Brinkley is a four part audio drama podcast, set in the 1920's and 30's, about a quack doctor/politician who first became famous for his cure for impotence: implanting goat testicles into human testicles. It uses comedy and country music to illustrate Brinkley's life as he moved from being a small town doctor to a millionaire to a candidate for governor of Kansas to a conservative talk radio star with an ear for country music. Hosted by Dan Butler, known best for playing Bulldog on Frasier, starring Tony Torn as Brinkley, and produced by Untitled Theater Company No.61, a Theater of Ideas based in New York. Written and directed by Edward Einhorn. Each episode also contains a short interview with an expert about the background of the story, including the history of country music.
