Holi-Day & Date Christmas Fun! (Week 4)
WFMU Playlist & Interactive Live Chat (The Digital Salon)
We forego our regular shows during the holidays, and for this program, we offer you a variety of holiday fare, all originally aired on this same date, but many decades before. This week our theme is: Jack Benny?
First, it’s an episode of CBS Town Hall Tonight, a variety show with music and comedy, hosted by Fred Allen, and featuring Jack Benny. After some brief Revelations, we offer a Christmas 1946 transcription disc from the Grandpas’s iPod blog (essentially a 1946 “Christmas mix tape”). We close the show with an installment of Jack Benny’s program, The Jell-O Show, where they get into their usual holiday shenanigans.
It’s two hours of vintage holiday broadcasts, ready for you this holiday season.
Enjoy!
