The spoofs of Fred Allen's program are always highlights. I have a vinyl album featuring one of Jack's spoofs of Allen's Alley called "Benny's Boulevard". Phil's a natural as the southern fire eater (Senator Claghorne impression). Dennis gets to display his mimic skills as Ajax Cassidy and Titus Moody (The 2 headed man). Mary portrays Portland. Jack, of course, is Fred. Strangely enough there wasn't a Mrs. Nussbaum spoof.
I can’t find anything else on old time radio that comes close to Jack Benny. I listened to all the Edgar Bergen shows I could find. Some great moments but outdated material.

...... should have saved that for Rochester.
The two headed man is the funniest thing 😂
"He's been moody all day." Great line.
...and the audience didn't seem to catch it!

amazingly good
How many radio shows does your boss have? Never gets old
I'm SOOOO glad I started listening to Fred Allen. The second they started doing their impressions, I just started laughing.
