This is Bob for every seven Hope telling all you
people from Maine to luth be sure to put Pepsidon
on every tooth. And whether you're as old as Crosby
or only a youth, your mouth will never be.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
As empty as a telephone booth.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
I don't care whether I get laughs tonight or not.
My sponsor can't call me tonight. Shouldn't use that kind
of language anyway, But anyway, the phone strike has affected
the contest for my favorite Grenette. One listener sending the
jingle saying, my favorite Barnette, How I wish I could
date her?
Speaker 3 (01:12):
She's my long distance telephone operator.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Didn't win a thing. It's gonna be tough getting any
messages through too. I was out in my backyard this
afternoon heard one carrier pigeon say to another I don't
know about you, Mabel, but I ain't strike breaking. But
I feel wonderful. And I've been down to Palm Springs.
I had to come back. I ran out of co signers.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Uh fom Springs, bom Springs.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
That's an old Indian expression meaning pale face, come and
stay and sun to look like red man him. Look
at hotel bill and.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Go home, pale face?
Speaker 1 (01:55):
What prices for those rooms down there? For fifty dollars
a day, you get a room with the view of
the mountains. For twenty five hours of the day, you
get along with the view of the desert. My room
costs five dollars a day. Every morning the bell boys
slipped a postcard of a cactus plant under my door.
I stayed in a nice place in Palm Springs. You've
heard of the lone Palm well. All night the dates
kept dropping out of it and hitting me in the head.
(02:17):
And in the morning didn't waken you by ringing your telephone.
A bellboy tiptoes, then tickles your toes and whispers it's.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Later than you think, Yes, sir, of course I.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Mingled with the four hundred while I was there in
Palm Springs. They don't care how many they put in
a room. It was a nice room. And the towels
raw my kids hers and put them back. Everybody was
there last week, and boy, that sun suit Dorothy Lamour
had on. She was sitting in there with a copy
(02:50):
of Forever Amber in her hand and the book was
reading her. I couldn't get regular suntan oil, so I
rubbed tech to Co number thirty on my back. It
was so embarrassing, and Chevrolet kept coming up and nuzzling me. Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry,
(03:17):
God around, ranger, can't see anything standing way back there.
Speaker 2 (03:20):

You know.
Speaker 6 (10:02):
They really kept me busy that their hope.
Speaker 8 (10:04):
As their chaperone, I've been telling them what every young
girl should know.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
It's vague.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
You remember, oh you marry more on you.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
You know, when I was a kid in Cleveland, Al,

I met you.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yeah, it was at the swankiest hotel in Cleveland, wasn't it.
Speaker 4 (20:45):
That's right, Bob. And one thing I've all ad regretted.
I never got a chance to apologize if I'm not
tipping you when you brought up the ice water.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
I remember, Oh, I make something of it.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Your pocket was one of the easiest I ever picked.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Nothing.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
I'll never forget that.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
The time we first met, I was playing in Cleveland
and I phoned down to the hotel operator, operator operator, Yes,
sir operator, this is al Joseph Jee And Sinatra thinks
he started that.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Hell Joseon, Oh, alfy, you kidd me.
Speaker 4 (21:32):
You kidd me, you send me, Okay, I'd like to
send you, but the elevator don't go down that far?
Say operator, where's that bell boy with my things? Never mind?
I think he's at the door now.

Speaker 1 (22:35):
Two tickets for the Rivli. But I'm sure I'll make
a great comic.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
Just the moment, let me give you a little advice, son.
Show business is a very tough record. You go from
town to town knocking your brains out. It's a long,
tough grind to the top, and if you get into
it you'll wish you were dead.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Then why are you in us?
Speaker 4 (22:56):
The money is great, Dowd. I gotta get dress. I
have a showder cake.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
Well, here's your coat, sir, But where's the pants in
the suit? Did it have pants?
Speaker 4 (23:05):
No, the jacket came with a bubble. Now look, don
wait a minute. Don't stand there, boy, find my pant.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
I'll phone down and see if the bell captain has him.
Speaker 5 (23:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Hello, oh, listen, bell captain, mister.
Speaker 2 (23:17):

the contest for my favorite Grenette. One listener sending the
jingle saying, my favorite Barnette, How I wish I could
date her?
Speaker 3 (01:12):
She's my long distance telephone operator.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
Didn't win a thing. It's gonna be tough getting any
messages through too. I was out in my backyard this
afternoon heard one carrier pigeon say to another I don't
know about you, Mabel, but I ain't strike breaking. But
I feel wonderful. And I've been down to Palm Springs.
I had to come back. I ran out of co signers.

Go home, pale face?
Speaker 1 (01:55):
What prices for those rooms down there? For fifty dollars
a day, you get a room with the view of
the mountains. For twenty five hours of the day, you
get along with the view of the desert. My room
costs five dollars a day. Every morning the bell boys
slipped a postcard of a cactus plant under my door.
I stayed in a nice place in Palm Springs. You've
heard of the lone Palm well. All night the dates
kept dropping out of it and hitting me in the head.

And in the morning didn't waken you by ringing your telephone.
A bellboy tiptoes, then tickles your toes and whispers it's.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Later than you think, Yes, sir, of course I.
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Mingled with the four hundred while I was there in
Palm Springs. They don't care how many they put in
a room. It was a nice room. And the towels
raw my kids hers and put them back. Everybody was
there last week, and boy, that sun suit Dorothy Lamour
had on. She was sitting in there with a copy
(02:50):
of Forever Amber in her hand and the book was
reading her. I couldn't get regular suntan oil, so I
rubbed tech to Co number thirty on my back. It
was so embarrassing, and Chevrolet kept coming up and nuzzling me. Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry,

around a whistle.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
You know.

They really kept me busy that their hope.
Speaker 8 (10:04):
As their chaperone, I've been telling them what every young
girl should know.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
It's vague.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
You remember, oh you marry more on you.

Yeah, look, Frank, what do you want more money for?
You know, there's no way you can take it with you.
Speaker 5 (19:47):
I know.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
But by the time I'm ready to leave, maybe Canada
will have figured out something you can't tell you.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
I feel the same way about Crosby. But you know
how we haven't mentioned my favorite for Neet for seven
or eight seconds. How'd you i the picture?
Speaker 4 (20:00):
Well, I don't think you have anything to worry about.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
You don't know.
Speaker 4 (20:03):
After all, I was older than you, and I made
my comeback.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Yeah, but it took two of you to do it.
Speaker 4 (20:12):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
You know, when I was a kid in Cleveland, Al,
I used to dream of being like you. So I
started telling jokes and more jokes. And now I'm here
in Hollywood too.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
That's right, Bob, who says crime don't pay that?
Speaker 1 (20:28):
You know, I don't have to do this for a living.
I can always tell eyebrowt tweezers to John L.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Lewis. Bob, you won't get no call next season.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
We'll need it out of here too.
Speaker 5 (20:40):
Ah.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
But memories are great, Bob. I remember the first time
I met you.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Yeah, it was at the swankiest hotel in Cleveland, wasn't it.
Speaker 4 (20:45):
That's right, Bob. And one thing I've all ad regretted.
I never got a chance to apologize if I'm not
tipping you when you brought up the ice water.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
I remember, Oh, I make something of it.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Your pocket was one of the easiest I ever picked.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Nothing.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
I'll never forget that.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
The time we first met, I was playing in Cleveland
and I phoned down to the hotel operator, operator operator, Yes,
sir operator, this is al Joseph Jee And Sinatra thinks
he started that.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
Hell Joseon, Oh, alfy, you kidd me.
Speaker 4 (21:32):
You kidd me, you send me, Okay, I'd like to
send you, but the elevator don't go down that far?
Say operator, where's that bell boy with my things? Never mind?
I think he's at the door now.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Mister Johnson, who did you think it was?
Speaker 4 (21:47):
Sophie Tucker?
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Here's your suit? Mister Joson?
Speaker 4 (21:51):

but a nice man has his pick.

Speaker 5 (22:26):
Instincts?
Speaker 2 (22:26):
But stop tickling me.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
What makes you think you'll ever be a comedian?
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Well, last night I won first prize an amateur night
over at the VJU.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
What did you give you for first prize?
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Two tickets for the Rivli. But I'm sure I'll make
a great comic.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
Just the moment, let me give you a little advice, son.
Show business is a very tough record. You go from
town to town knocking your brains out. It's a long,
tough grind to the top, and if you get into
it you'll wish you were dead.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Then why are you in us?
Speaker 4 (22:56):
The money is great, Dowd. I gotta get dress. I
have a showder cake.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
Well, here's your coat, sir, But where's the pants in
the suit? Did it have pants?
Speaker 4 (23:05):
No, the jacket came with a bubble. Now look, don
wait a minute. Don't stand there, boy, find my pant.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
I'll phone down and see if the bell captain has him.
Speaker 5 (23:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Hello, oh, listen, bell captain, mister.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Joson doesn't have his pants.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
Well, tell him to leave by the back entrance. And
what does Joseph's pants look like? You only have one
pair like him? They have a padded left kne.
Speaker 5 (23:28):
Let me, let me, let me.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
Talk to the bell captain. Hello, this is Al Joson.
