1:16:26 – The earliest existing shows from Lum and Abner. Friday Night Sociable is one of my all-time favorite pieces of OTR audio. Lion Hunting is an “orphan episode” from an otherwise lost storyline. The oil well storyline was apparently being wrapped up at the start of 1935. From this point on a large percentage of episodes have been preserved for our enjoyment.

2:00:12 – Starting a new series of Keystone Victrola episodes featuring OTR comedy shows arranged into sets. Keystone Victrola will alternate between The Jack Benny Program, Fibber McGee & Molly, and Lum and Abner (and quite possibly other OTR comedies as time goes on). This episode consists of the earliest Jack Benny episodes known to exist, originally broadcast in 1932 and 1933. These early Benny shows are a bit of a mixed bag, but there are glimpses of greatness and much of historical interest contained therein. Enjoy!

Jack’s First Episode on the Radio (5/2/32)
Review of 1932 (1/1/33) *
Bertha the Sewing Machine Girl (1/22/33) *
Mary Does “She Done Him Wrong” (3/31/33)
Guest Edward G. Robinson (4/21/33)
