ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Today we’re featuring a rare, unrestored recording of a 1945 radio show, "The FreshUp Show," starring Bert Wheeler of the comedy duo Wheeler & Woolsey. This is a mix between a 1940s sitcom and a standup vaudeville style comedy, with a loose plot revolving around Wheeler's attempts to avoid marrying his boss's daughter by getting himself arrested.
