Jack Benny radio show 10/25/42 Tales of Manhattan 

This is a wonderful example of the genius of the Jack Benny program, with characters that "leak" and references to current events.

First time I've heard this one. Thanks for sharing.

They all are soo funny, however, Jack is hilarious!! .. l had no idea he was this funny ...

Two of Jack's writers wrote a comedy segment starring WC Fields, for the movie "Tales of Manhattan", but the segment was cut because the studio felt it didn't fit with the highbrow tone of the other segments. This episode's parody of "Tales of Manhattan" was a delicious bit of revenge.

I like when Jack catches their goofs.

I loved Dennis' version of "At Last," ( 14:29 ) never heard it sung that way! I wonder if it's possible to get a collection of his songs anywhere?

07:30 - The band plays "Abraham", the notorious blackface number from the movie "Holiday Inn".
