Classic Radio 12-12-24 - Mae West as Eve, Love in Darkest Africa, and the lost locket


Listen Later

A Variety Thursday

First a look at this day in History.

Then The Chase and Sanborn Hour with host Don Ameche, originally broadcast December 12, 1937, 87 years ago with guest Mae West.  Nelson Eddy begins the program with a rousing, "On The Road To Mandalay." The program contains the famous "Adam and Eve" skit with Don Ameche and guest Mae West, which was considered sacriligious enough to have Mae West banned from network radio immediately after the program. Mae and Charlie banter about the time he "came up to see her,"

Followed by The Martin and Lewis Show, originally broadcast December 12, 1949, 75 years ago.    The boys get a job at a suburban resort. Madness follows, funny in spite of the mayhem. The cast does a skit called, "Love In Darkest Africa."

Then Lum and Abner, originally broadcast December 12, 1941, 83 years ago, Miss Frederic's Locket Lost.   Lum has declared his love to Miss Fredericks, placed it in a locket, and baked the locket in a loaf of bread...but which loaf of bread?

Followed by Jonathan Thomas and His Christmas On The Moon, originally broadcast December 12, 1938, 86 years ago, Jonathan Wakes Up From The Witch’s Spell.  "Rumplestich" (the witch) melts an ice-covered river to keep Whiskery Bill and Sir Algy from crossing.

Finally Superman, originally broadcast December 12, 1941, 83 years ago, The Pan American highway.   Clark Kent fools the Incas into thinking that Perry White and John Craig have been killed.
