Hello again, my beauties! Brian here :) Just thought I'd share something that keeps me smiling. It's from the golden age of radio (1930's through 1950's). It's an episode of the Jack Benny Show from December 2, 1945 entitled "The 'I Can't Stand Jack Benny' Contest". And no, the contest is not still running lol. Enjoy! :)

I should also say that this episode is sponsored by Lucky Strike cigarettes. Now, I'm not condoning smoking by any stretch. Remember, this is the era when cigarettes were still considered very chic and popular. This is just a simple disclaimer to let you know that this is from an earlier time and I don't endorse or condone smoking.

Your friend,

Brian :)

I love those! They are aired very early in the morning here. Remember the episode with The earwig that turned out to be a female and layed eggs in the guy’s head after he survived the earwig? Or the one with the piano that would alter personalities? Hilarious! I could go on and on...
