Howdy Folks! It’s The Kendog with another episode of Radio Daze! This edtion features one of the most successful spin off shows of all time. “The Great Guildersleeve” started in 1941 and ran all the way until 1954. Throckmorton P. Guildersleeve had previously been popular on Fibber McGee and Molly and proved to be just as possible on his own show. Played for most of its run by the talented Harold Peary, Guildersleeve was the Water Commissioner for the town of Summerfield and the guardian of little Leroy (Walter Tetley) and Marjorie (Virginia Lynne). Like Fibber McGee & Molly, this show had a variety of colorful characters and the show had its own groove. The first two episodes here are from 1941 and show how good the show would become! Enjoy and snuggle up to the old radio tonight! So Sayeth The kendog!
