STAN FREBERG SHOW "Last Broadcast"

October 20, 1957 CBS Radio Episode 15 Final Show.  The Stan Freberg Show would prove to be enduring and wide-reaching. The program lasted just 15 episodes that reached over six million radio listeners, but was doomed when it failed to attract a sponsor. During this time, there weren’t really blocks of commercials as there are now: you would have one sponsor who would present the entire program. That’s all well and good if you’re super-popular like Jack Benny, but Freberg prided himself on being sardonic and mischievous. In other words, dangerous to attach your brand to.   https://www.vulture.com/2015/02/the-stan-freberg-show-radios-last-comedy-series.html https://web.archive.org/web/20060311001906/http://www.dawsbutler.com/Freberg2.htm
