Thanks for posting this. I listened to Herb Shriner on radio and his voice was charming. Orson Welles is a treat.

This originally aired on October 8, 1956.

Now, in the fall of 1956, Herb headlined his own weekly half-hour variety show on CBS [Tuesdays, 9pm(et)], for Geritol {"The high-potentcy vitamin and iron tonic that helps you 'Feel Stronger Fast'!"}, and one of his guests was Orson Welles [now there was a combination!]. A publicity picture of Herb and Orson, taken during rehearsals, was featured in the 1966 book, "How Sweet It Was". However, Herb's series was cancelled near the end of 1956, replaced by "TO TELL THE TRUTH".

Herb Shriner was known as a "Hoosier humorist", with his wry monologues on life and his early years in Indiana- and he could play a mean harmonica! He was on radio in the late '40s, but his most famous TV stint was as emcee on "TWO FOR THE MONEY" (1952-56), a show like Groucho's "YOU BET YOUR LIFE", where his interviews with the contestants (and Herb's observations) were more of a "draw" than the game itself....

The best part of this is Herb Shriner. He's one of the forgotten men of tv and humor. Bravo to whoever put Herb up...put some more up!

That's funny. Doesn't surprise me either. He had some fun at the expense of French bureaucrats too, as I recall.

"heehaws"?
And Welles actually tried to get French state funding for an adaptation of King Lear in the early 1980s, he found their mountain of contractual requirements utterly repulsive

One of our real claims to civilization was Orson. God the heehaws hate him so, you'd think he was French.
