The Great Radio Comedians - PBS Doc with Jack Benny, George Burns, Edgar Bergen

A 1972 documentary from PBS after the golden age of rio had passed. Stumbled on it when I couldn't stream MSNBC tonight.
90 minutes so if you are interested you may want to watch it in pieces.
I love the history of entertainment and radio was a big deal in the 30s to 50s.

Fibber McGee and Molly and Fred Allen also in the show.
