For nearly 20 years the mere mention of Benny on an Allen program was guaranteed to produce an escalating laugh - just as bringing Allen up with Benny had listener in stitches at the mere anticipation of a response. This digitally remastered collection brings together the classic episodes that started it all - from first time the pair shared a microphone (in a skit ripe with references to Benny's musical skill), to Stuart Canin's performance of "The Bee," to the showdown that was supposed to end it once and for all. Join Jack, Fred, and their comical cohorts Portland Hoffa, Harry Von Zell, John Brown, Minerva Pious, Mary Livingstone, Kenny Baker, Don Wilson, Andy Devine, Phil Harris, and all the regulars from both Town Hall Tonight and The Jell-O Program. Includes rare episodes.

How Can you Go Wrong Would you consider the audio edition of Jack Benny vs. Fred Allen: The Feud to be better than the print version? Yes. Since a print version of this wouldn't work at all. What did you like best about this story? It is amazing that the young kid who was the violinist ended up with a major international career including a win at one of the world's most important violin contests. Which scene was your favorite? Can a mother choose a favorite child? This is allen and benny. Its all good. Benny's a little less "topical" and requires less "work" (although he is brilliant), Allen's humor is more topical and requires more work to understand it. But both are at the top of their game. We don't have comedians of this skill at this time in our media. Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you? Yes. The speech near the end by the young violinist thanking Allen for the money and saying that he hoped to use it to study hard. And to look back and realize that he did. A Full Day Of Laughs With Two American Legends Would you listen to Jack Benny vs. Fred Allen: The Feud again? Why? Would and have, repeatedly.
