Transcript

Now let's granddaughter folks, it's Town Hall Tonight! Hope in Town Hall Tonight, folks. 60 Minutes of fun and music brought to you by Ipanatooth Pace and South of Pataca. Ipanat for the smile of dew heath, South of Pataca for the smile of hell.

Fun with our star comedian Fred Allen Music with Peter Van Steepen. New songs, new laughs, it's Town Hall Tonight! Well, here the old Town Hall is jammed to the murals folks. Folks, Peter just has room enough to raise his bat on, and the overture is rock and roll.

Good morning, gentlemen. Now, ladies and gentlemen, April showers may bring Mayflower.

And April showers. But they also bring us a lot of other things that are all wet. And here's one of them, that old drip, Fred Allen, in person. Thank you, and good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

And thank you for that liquid introduction, Mr. Von Zell. Oh, that's all right, Fred. Don't mention it. Yes, I am going to mention it, Harry. Oh, no. A fine leaky send-off, I must say. If I'm that wet, I certainly must look like a puddle standing on end here at the moment.

Pete, what's on your mind? Well, I'm bringing a guest star over for my Tuesday night program for men only Harry. No kidding. Yes, we can use some laughs on this program. So I've got Georgie Jessle coming over later.
