Transcript

The Citizen Costello program brought to you by Camels, the cigarette that's first to the service. Camels stay fresh because they're packed to go around the world. Listen to the music of Freddie Ritz and his orchestra, the songs of Connie Haynes, Tonight's special guest, Bert Gordon, the mad Russian of radio, and starring Bud Abbot and Luke Costello.

And here it is, the last program of 1943 and year later again. Now, nowhere have you been. Oh, Abbot, the worst thing just happened to me. No. Now give me a dog for Christmas present and the dog just took a great big fight out of me Where did he bite you well if I'd have been wearing a license plate he'd have got the last three numbers

A spitz? No, but he drools a little. Look, there are different types of dogs, such as setters and pointers. That's it, Abbot. That's what he is. He's a set-up pointer. A set-up pointer. Yeah, he sets all day and points at the ice box.
