As I've mentioned before, Arch Oboler frequently used his radio series Lights Out to comment on the contemporary rise of fascism, particularly in Germany. Such an episode is "Execution" (broadcast April 27, 1943). In this episode, a German takes relish in ordering a woman's execution - yet the same woman keeps appearing before him, proving he is the one who has been condemned!
