Join Adam Graham for a whimsical final episode focused on the mischievous world of fake children in Old Time Radio, featuring the unforgettable character of Junior, the mean widdle kid, brought to life by the legendary Red Skelton. In this delightful outing, we explore how Skelton's unique approach to character creation set him apart from his contemporaries, as each character he portrayed had its own distinct personality and quirks.

Listeners will be treated to a classic sketch from the August 25, 1942 episode of "Command Performance," where Junior visits an army camp with his mother, played by the talented Dorothy Lamour. Experience the hilarity as Junior's antics unfold, showcasing his clever wit and charm in a way that only Red Skelton could deliver.
