Classic Comedy of Old Time Radio

Jello again. Jack Benny and the gang celebrate a huge milestone in Don Wilson’s life: fifteen years on the radio. Given that the first commercial radio broadcast was in 1920 and that in 1923, when Don began, only 1% of U.S. households owned a radio, that is a huge achievement!

Episode 287 of The Jack Benny Show. The program originally aired on on March 6, 1938.
