I love listening to Sirius channel 148.
They play classic radio shows all day long.

Recently while listening to the Jack Benny show,
I was surprised that they were calling Jack Benny “Jackson”

I have never heard he had a nickname of Jackson.

I don't recall hearing him called that either, but it's been so many years, I could have forgotten it. I perused through his IMDb bio, but didn't see it listed as a nickname for him.

I think "Jack" is supposed to be a nickname for "Jackson."

Only Phil Harris called him Jackson, no one else did.
