Howdy Folks! It’s The Kendog here with another episode of Radio Daze! This time we’re featuring a couple for the great Jack Benny! Eternally 39 years old, cheap, and a horrible fiddle player, Benny ruled the airwaves for almost 25 years. The writing team was tops and his supporting cast, including Mary Livingston, Phil Harris, Dennis Day, announcer Don Wilson, and his valet Rochester, was among the best in comedy history. Enjoy these two offerings from the Lucky Strike Era! So Sayeth The Kendog!
Radio Daze: “Fibber McGee & Molly” Are Back For Your Old Radio Listening Pleasure!
Howdy Folks! It’s The Kendog here with another episode of Radio Daze! This one features two episodes of the fabulous “Fibber McGee & Molly” program starring real-life husband and wife Jim and Marian Jordan. Both master of comic timing, the show is best known for its long list of supporting characters who come to visit the McGee household. Folks like Harold Peary’s The Great Guildersleeve, Bill Thompson’s Mr. Wipple (and The Old Timer) and Gale Gordon’s Mayor La Trivia were among the many who contributed to the laughs on this classic show. These two episodes are from April of 1940, including the Fifth Anniversary episode! Enjoy this classic comedy! So Sayeth The Kendog!
Radio Daze: Jack Benny Is Alive And Kicking For Your Old Radio Listening Pleasure!
Howdy Folks! It’s The Kendog here with another episode of Radio Daze. This edition features the legendary Jack Benny during his years on the Jello Progam. These two episode are from 1940 and feature Benny with legends Orson Welles and Fred Allen. Allen, in particular is a funny counterpoint to Benny, as the two good friends had quite the radio feud that ran from the late 1930s all the way through the 40s. Both of these programs feature Benny at his best. Truly funny programs to listen two huddled up by the fire during the evening! Enjoy! So Sayeth The Kendog!
