This is from a live episode that originally aired on April 19, 1953. If you're aware of the various running gags on Jack's radio and TV shows, you'll know that he often earned "extra money" by providing most of Los Angeles with laundry service, window cleaning services, and any money-making opportunities he could think of- usually involving Rochester in them. In this episode, we're led to believe Benny also operates a "lunch wagon", selling food to his hungry production crew at CBS.
Live show - they really worked performers hard back in the good old days!
