Charlie McCarthy is really Edgar Bergen. Or the other way around. It was a ventriloquist act.

On the radio.

Go figure.

But you can’t argue with success and the Charlie McCarthy show was more than a success, it was a cultural phenomenon.

The Kids loved Charlie McCarthy, so did the parents and Grandparents.

The biggest Movie stars didn’t have time to do radio.

Except for the Charlie McCarthy show.

They all wanted to do the Charlie McCarthy show.
