Best Old Time Radio Podcast with Bob Bro Monday, June 21, 2021 - OTR Comedies The Edgar Bergen & Charlie McCarthy Show - Guest: W.C. Fields One of the great all-time comedy pairings during the golden days of radio was that of Charlie McCarthy and W.C. Fields. Appearing in dozens of radio skits for a decade, and even starring together in a motion picture, the barbs they would throw back and forth constituted priceless comedic lore. In this episode W.C. Fields has moved to a sanitarium and Edgar and Charlie come for a visit. The rest is just sheer comedy genius as the two exchange insults at a mile-a-minute. Enjoy! Featuring: Edgar Bergen, Charlie McCarthy, Mortimer Snerd, W.C. Fields, Verna Felton, Ken Carpenter Original Air Date: March 24, 1946 on NBC To listen to more great old time radio programs, visit our website: https://bestoldtimeradio.com Contact: [e-mail]
