---|---|
Station/Studio | NBC Red (radio) |

Bob Burns, aka 'Bazooka' Burns and 'The Arkansas Traveler,' delivered his brand of down home, rural humor, with his stories about fictional hillbilly relatives. Burns' monologues were influenced by the late Will Rogers, with topical humor a trademark. His frequent musical guest was Spike Jones, who would sometimes be joined by Burns and his "bazooka"... a homemade trombone made from a whiskey funnel and gas pipes.
In the final show of the season, Burns welcomes and introduces the cast of his summer replacement THE FRED BRADY SHOW, including Joe DeRita. Spike and his orchestra premiere their wartime hit "Schickelgruber."
