I remember very well this show when Arthur Godfrey "fired" La Rosa "on air".
It did not help Arthur Godfrey's popularity either.
Many people were very angry with Godfrey over the incident.

Being a young Tyke, AG was seldom remembered; however STILL to this day remember the firing of the singer and the talk it created. AG didn’t last long after that. In that era, Tennessee Ernie Ford show and Art Linkletter show were watched a good deal more than AG

I never understood what appeal Godfrey had.

Of course I don’t understand what appeal Obama had.

Or many others.

On Oct. 19, 1953, “That was Julie’s swan song with us.”

I was six.

I will never forget that day, but only because my dear Aunt Wilma called in tears to report the incident to my mother and dad and unfortunately I answered the phone.

LOL.
