Guest - Bela Lugosi

Broadcast: April 25, 1943
Added: Apr 11 2024

It's time for another hour of mirth and melody with Fred Allen and Portland Hoffa. In this episode, the signature segment "Allen's Alley Question" tackles a timely issue: the potential shrinking of newspapers. Fred poses a hypothetical to his audience: if newspapers are forced to reduce their size, what sections would you be happiest to see disappear? Next up, Fred, ever the opportunist (or perhaps the victim of outrageous circumstances), pays a visit to the famed horror actor Bela Lugosi. With a twist of Allen's signature dry wit, the scene unfolds with Fred attempting to rent Lugosi's house.
