Abbott and Costello -- Radio Station with Alan Ladd

Step up to the microphone with the kings of comedy. In this March 30, 1944 broadcast of The Abbott and Costello Program, cool Hollywood tough-guy Alan Ladd drops by -- and that's all it takes for Lou to decide he was born to be a radio announcer. Cue the double-talk, the malaprops, and the mayhem as Bud tries to keep the whole radio station from falling apart. A half-hour of pure wartime escapist laughter from the team that gave the world "Who's on First?"
