Saturday Matinee - The Phil Harris Alice Faye Show (Phil's Vaccination), The Abbott & Costello Show (Sam Shovel in The Grocer Who Fell in Wet Cement) & Columbia Workshop (Alice in the Looking Glass)

Update: 2025-09-27

Description

This week's Saturday Matinee on Vintage Classic Radio brings you a trio of classic broadcasts: in the Phil Harris-Alice Faye Show episode "Phil's Vaccination", Phil does everything he can to dodge a shot with predictably funny results; then Abbott and Costello lampoon the hardboiled detective genre in "Sam Shovel in the Caes of the Grocer Who Fell in Wet Cement"; and finally Orson Welles transports us into a world of whimsy and riddles with Columbia Workshop's imaginative adaptation of "Alice Through the Looking Glass".
