Today we’re showcasing comedy once again. In this episode we listen as Bud Abbott and Lou Costello reprise their famous WHO’S ON FIRST sketch as part of their show. This isn’t the original performance of the sketch (it is unlikely that a recording of the original performance has survived) but this 1947 reprise performance still demonstrates why this sketch is listed as one of the comedy masterpieces of the 20th Century. A word of caution however: the tobacco advertising in this episode is genuinely disturbing.
