A popular radio show was that of Bob Hope, weekly. It was in the evening, after 7 pm. It was sponsored by Pepsodent toothpaste "You'll wonder where the yellow went when you start using Pepsodent!" Bob Hope provided full employment for singer Francis Langford. One of his foils was Jerry Colonna. All comedians in those days had their own announcers, but I forget whose was Bob Hope's.
