196. WBW Theater Classic Old Time Radio - Jack Benny Program - Halloween Celebration - a podcast by Dennis Moore

The Jack Benny Program was first broadcast on the Blue Network on 2nd May 1932. With his capable cast of supporting players Benny made his show into one of great radio comedy shows. What was so special about this golden-age classic is Benny's ability to come across as a likeable guy despite being vain, argumentative, and a skinflint. People related to Benny and his willingness to often give the best comedy lines in the show to his supporting cast made him popular with listeners, guests and colleagues. This is classic comedy that is still funny sixty years later.

Starring: Basil Rathbone, Jack Benny, Phil Harris, Dennis Day, Meredith Willson, Mary Livingstone, Eddie Anderson

Broadcast Date: November 2, 1941
