From medicine shows to minstrel tours, circuses, riverboat shows, vaudeville, burlesque, radio, television and movies, Red Skelton did it all! And, for a comic best remembered by the television generation for his physical comedy, he was quite adept at well-honed character-driven verbal comedy on the radio. Red and his quirky cast of regulars—including Ozzie Nelson, Harriet Hilliard, Truman Bradley, Bea Benaderet, Frank Nelson, Verna Felton, GeGe Pearson, Anita Ellis, Rod O'Connor, Wonderful Smith, and more—examined the highs and lows of 1940s transportation, occupation, and romance. Would you like to hear a classic Willie Lump-Lump routine? Are you craving some Clem Kadiddlehopper? Longing for the music and merriment of Ozzie & Harriet? Do you want to know what shenanigans Junior's cooking up? Well, stick around, brother, for 16 digitally restored and remastered episodes!
