Jack Benny radio show 1/28/45 Ann Sheridan

This wartime episode is performed at Mitchell Field Air Force Base. Larry Stevens is filling in for Dennis Day while he's away in the service. This is a straightforward variety-show episode with a lot of funny moments. Ann Sheridan shows up as eye candy for the servicemen, and Minerva Pious (from the "rival" Fred Allen show) appears in a sketch as Mrs. Nussbaum, who balks when she sees that her blind date is Jack Benny.

The shows from the Army bases are always funny. This proves it. Thanks for sharing this. Love JB.

Love those wartime jokes that they personalize for the servicemen.

Sirius XM plays a lot of radio shows on channel 148. I love it when they play Jack Benny and Phil Harris.

@allmightymouse - I used to listen to Hollywood 360 on WIND AM560 when you first posted this 10 years ago. The program left the station for a time, then returned, where it still is today. I've since moved away from Chicagoland but listen to the program via the internet.
