Still funny 70+ years later!

It is fun to hear two sharp comedians performing one of their most famous skits, along with other stories and jokes. The commercials advertising camel cigarettes (the brand most recommended by doctors surveyed!) is interesting considering how much advertising money is spent to counter cigarette smoking nowadays.

. The Torrent needs to be seeded. Thanks for providing this, however I just noticed that the audio shared here represents Side 1 of the cassette pictured. Where is Side 2? Also, why do you state that the date (06/18/1944) is incorrect? Can you provide a citation for this?
