Captain Video and the Space Cadets, the dancing pack of Old Gold Cigarettes, What's My Line? Hosted by Jon Daley with Bennet Cerf and Dorthy Killgallen and Audrey Meadows. How about Your Hit Parade with Snooky Lansen, Gizelle McKenzie and some blonde bimbo whose name escapes me. Hell, I remember Amos and Andy on RADIO along with Fibber McGee and Molly. But best of all was the magic line from Smilin' Ed McConnel and the Gang, "Plunk your magic twanger, Froggy." Which I did, late at night, when I was sure the rest of the family was asleep -- and I didn't go blind.

You twanged your twanger over a frog? 
Rosemary Clooney was the blonde bimbo. She had a lot of hits of her own. and a great set of Gazoombas.
Paul and Mary Ford show.
