George Molchan

For this Fourth of July, what's more American than hot dogs? And what's more hot dog than Oscar Mayer wieners? And I swear, after you finish this podcast, you'll be singing the catchy Oscar Mayer wiener song all day long. The spokesperson for this famous meat company commercial was George Molchan. The Oscar Mayer plant headquarters was in Madison, Wisconsin. George would travel around the country in the Wienermobile and give away little plastic wiener whistles, shaped like a hot dog, with the company logo on them, and when blown, could whistle the Oscar Mayer song. Of course, we asked George to sing the song.
