This episode, originally aired November 4, 1951, opens with Jack's usual monologue interrupted by Bob Crosby, who sings a song. Don arrives late and the cabbie (played by Mel Blanc) runs on stage to give him his briefcase. Dorothy Shay is introduced and sings, then introduces "Zeke Benny and his Mad Mountain Boys," which consists of orchestra boys Frank Remley, Wayne Songer, Charlie Bagby, and Sammy Weiss.

  • Jack later reprised the "hillbilly band" sequence (virtually intact) for an April 1958 filmed episode, with the same musicians and a different "Maw"....

  • What a great channel!!! Kudos to you!!!

  • Classic Benny response to Bob Crosby's taking over his monologue! Entire routine is hilarious!

  • Recalled this from seeing it years ago...

    That Bob Crosby interruption routine in the monologue always killed me. So glad to have found it posted....!
