It's a little bankhead

National Broadcasting Cup, but it presents the big show The Big Show, 90 minutes with the most intimidating personalities in the entertainment world, brought to you this Sunday and every Sunday at the same time as the Sunday feature of NBC's All-Star Festival.

And here is your hostess, the glamorous, unpredictable, Toulula Bankhead. Well, darlings, putting together this week's big show has been the most ghastly experience. It all started when I very helpful suggested that they were engaging humanist singers for our program.

NBC could save a lot of money, especially since they have me on the show, the same. But it seems when they come for choosing the talent on this show, I have no voice. I didn't mean that to sound exactly like that.

Now what I mean is after all I was on another show this past week as a singer and I was good too. I got 639 telephone votes. I ran second only to one very talented young man who played home sweet home on his head with a mallet.

That doesn't mean a thing to NBC. They go out and how this is a Billy X time. I can think better than she can. I don't care who she is. I came to Lulan. Oh, you've been here next time.

I don't know what makes you think I'm taking away your singing job. After all, I'm a baritone. The world, darling. Mm. You see, you're a bass. Well, Billy, I really didn't have you in mind when I was talking about the singers they have for this show.
