"I'm thinking, I'm thinking!"
You’ll love this. Jack Benny trying to chisel Groucho Marx for prize money on You Bet Your Life.
I listen to Jack Benny often on several old time radio podcasts. Jack and Red Skelton and the short-lived Stan Freberg shows were the absolute best comedy ever. Nothing compared to that era of comedy.
For later.

Those guys were very funny.
When they would come on the Carson show, it was a pure
madhouse with some of the funniest moments I’ve ever seen.
Holy cow. That is brilliant. I’ve never heard or seen that one before. Thank you so much.
Jack Benny, George Burns, Bob Hope, all started in Vaudeville, where they Perfected the craft of the stand up comic. They gave us decades of great humor, and scarcely a vulgar word to be heard.
Two of the greatest.
They were incomparable. And George Burns too.

Yes, when funny did not require rude language or behavior.
Oh well
The Jack Benny Program sponsor promotions by Don Wilson reminds me that food rationing (the government saying "No you can't eat that") was something that has happened before and looks like could come back very soon.
Comedy, nothing like Bob Hope, Rodney Dangerfield or Jack.
