Mule Train | The Smothers Brothers | Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour

The Smothers Brothers sing Mule Train, but it all breaks down when Tommy is supposed to make the sound of the mule on The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour.
The Smothers Brothers
The Smothers Brothers, Tom and Dick, are one of the most iconic comedy duos in the history of television. Tom and Dick began performing as a duo in the late 1950s, playing in coffeehouses and clubs in San Francisco. Their act consisted of music, comedy, and witty banter, which quickly gained them a following.
The Smothers Brothers became a household name in the late 1960s with their variety show, The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour. The show was groundbreaking in its approach to comedy, pushing the boundaries with political satire and social commentary. The show also featured up-and-coming musical acts, including The Doors and The Who, and introduced the world to comedians like Steve Martin and George Carlin.
The Smothers Brothers' irreverent style has made them a beloved and enduring force in American comedy.

Now, while the world in plunging ever further into the darkness that is hatred and ignorance, one more bright light is taken from us. God bless him and his brother, and God help us.

[@steveflor9942]

Very much appreciated the digs at Reagan. Foreshadowing Reagan's assault on the working class of America. Impending doom of the coming 8 years.

It’s the Ox Driver’s Song or the Song of the Ox Driver, depending on the artist that sag it.

[@brucedavidson1062]

"Reagan was a known heterosexual". LMAO

[@gbarthg]

The format of the program was based on radio programs from the 1930s. Radio personalities occasionally made little digs at Roosevelt, but they were always in good fun. The Smothers Brothers' jokes about Reagan weren't in good fun, although they were funny. Q: "Why do you think they call it Death Valley?" A: "Because of Ronald Reagan."

[@elizabethbeckman1947]

My take it's a reference to Ronald Reagan's earlier role in, his contribution to the anthology series "Death Valley Days. " Reagan appeared in twenty-one episodes of Death Valley Days; he left the series to run for Governor of California.

[@robbitomsen3815]

I guess you don't know and the shows Death Valley Days with Ronald Reagan . Too bad..it's a good show

[@RobMacKendrick]

Also well before his presidency. The Reagan they're referring to was governor of California. His political tendencies were already cast, though.
