February 24, 1946 – The Jack Benny Program from Palm Springs. The Hot Dog Man (who would later be called Mr.Kitzel) is featured as Jack and Mary roam the streets before showing up late for their own show. Phil Harris has got it coved. 🙂
Jack has a bone to pick with Esquire magazine. Listen to my intro to see what else was featured in that issue from 1946.
March 4, 1951 – The Lucky Strike Program Starring Jack Benny! The March 4, 1934 Episode of Jack Benny sounds like they are doing the show under water. They aren’t, it’s just really old. I open this podcast with a couple clips, then switch to the March 4, 1951 episode. Jack goes to the Dentist.
March 3, 1946 –Â This episode features Frank Nelson the YEEESSSS! guy as a real estate agent. But the show really pick up when Jack gets to the studio and meets the gang.
March 9, 1952 – Jack gets ready for the fourth show of the second season of his TV show, which would air later that night on CBS with guest stars George Burns and Gracie Allen. It’s the Old Time Radio show “The Lucky Strike Program”.
March 10, 1946 Ray Maland who would win the Oscar for “The Lost Weekend” (1945) guest stars on the Luck Strike Program starring Jack Benny. They spoof the movie and have a lot of fun with the success of the film.
