Guest Ronald Colman appeals for help for the United States Crop Corps and tells Charlie the story of "Random Harvest." Mortimer Snerd discusses his plans for the coming planting season. Guests Victor Moore and William Gaxton are running a draft board (they answer the phone!)

This is the Edgar Bergen & Charlie McCarthy Show, with guest Robert Cummings.

Edgar teaches Charlie about the brain. Fourteen year old Jane Powell guests. Charlie and guest W. C. Fields are out on the golf course. W. C. loses his place in the script and his line is read by Charlie!

An orange glow peeks through the window on a crisp October night. Is it a jack-o'-lantern? Or, is it the radio dial? It's both! This collection of radio's happiest Halloween moments is replete with good old-fashioned haunted houses, costume parties, cemeteries, tricks and treats. Have fun with favorites like Jack Benny, Hal Peary, William Bendix, Ozzie & Harriet, Lucille Ball, Edgar Bergen & Charlie McCarthy, and Boris Karloff.

The impeccably dressed Charlie McCarthy was as sarcastic as he was stylish. His country cousin Mortimer Snerd was buck-toothed, bucolic...and just as fondly remembered. But it was the egalitarian and exquisitely entertaining Edgar Bergen who brought them to life.
