Download Jack Benny vs. Fred Allen: The Feud AudioBook Free
Among radio comedy's most long lasting features were its jogging gags - and few gags ran much longer, or more hilariously, than the legendary feud between two of its great masters: Jack Benny and Fred Allen. For nearly twenty years the mere reference to Benny with an Allen program was assured to create an escalating chuckle - just like bringing Allen up with Benny had listener in stitches at the mere anticipation of a response. This digitally remastered collection brings together the classic episodes that started everything - from first time the pair distributed a microphone (in a skit ripe with sources to Benny's musical skill), to Stuart Canin's performance of "The Bee," to the showdown that was supposed to end it forever. Join Jack, Fred, and their comical cohorts Portland Hoffa, Harry Von Zell, John Dark brown, Minerva Pious, Mary Livingstone, Kenny Baker, Don Wilson, Andy Devine, Phil Harris, and all the regulars from both Town Hall Tonight and The Jell-O Program.
