THURSDAY NIGHT IN THE FRED BERTELSEN OLD-TIME-RADIO ROOM

Our Presenter for this week is Larry Gassman. Let us read what Larry will be playing.

During Radio’s Golden era, cross promotions were not uncommon. In fact they happened quite regularly.
On January 17, 1948, the Life of Riley featured a program which collectors have entitled, The Telephone Is Rationed. During this time, Truth or Consequences was running a contest to seek the identity of The Walking Man”. So, Ralph Edwards appeared on The Life of Riley” show which proceeded “Truth Or Consequences to plug his show.
And Riley also ran to the next studio to appear on Ralph Edwards’s show.
We’ll hear that full hour from January 17, 1948 on the next edition of Radio Out of the Past Thursday evening.
Please join us for some radio comedy fun.
