It's hard to believe that Wally Cox wasted (dominated) half of the time on this episode. I was bored with him after the first 15 seconds

God, I wish I had a time machine so I could spend one afternoon laughing and joking with Helen Traubel!

@tristanchord85 You may be interested to know that Lily Pons, asked the same question on What's My Line, unhesitatingly answered "yes!" :)

@tristanchord85 Lily Pons answered "yes".

The story I heard was that Bing was mortified by Trauble's appearance on the Jimmy Durante show. Thank heaven you can enjoy their absolutely delightful number on the CD "Club Durant", featuring Jimmy in extended musical numbers with several great stars. Anyone who enjoys these old clips should get a copy.

Good sport that Helen. Cox is funny, but he certainly has trouble getting his timing right. As they say in show biz -- keep the front end moving.

wally cox is amazing perfect dead pan performance.

Wally Cox wastes so much time!! Get on with it, for heaven sakes!

Oh my, I'm going to have to do a little Google research! It sounds as though she must have had some sort of noisy dispute with Mr. Bing! (Rudolph Bing, director of the Metropolitan Opera in the 50s and 60s). She wasn't the only one to have a go-around with Mr. Bing.
The good oldays, when pop culture was literate. Bye the way, no modern opera singer today would want to answer "no" to the "question are you an actor?"
