Bob and Ray WOR 202 December 18 1973
In this episode, Henry Glandstone stands in for Lyle Van due to a big snowstorm. The WOR Christmas tree is delivered, and on the Mary Backstayge feature, Gregg brings John Simon over to play his song “Gold.” You know the words, so don't be afraid to sing along.
The episode features various segments, including 'The Big Scoop,' which discusses the kidnapping of the Fettison girl twenty years earlier, and 'The Gathering Dust,' where Edna receives a visit from Fire Chief Gurmit. The gang also discusses decorating the Christmas tree and Christmas in general, with humorous skits and commercials throughout.
This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.

Critiques
How I discovered Bob and Ray for the Truly Desperate and Lost 12 Lbs.
PaulieB
Actually I didn't lose any weight but I did find you through a random search here on the Internet Archives.. The audio for the most part is very good. I am a huge B&R fan and have shared some of these clips with Ray G Jr. By the way.. TWPITW refers to B&R calling John Simon The Worst Person In The World after Simon was the only critic to pan their The Two and Only Broadway show. He gave the show a blistering review,, Bob had it framed.. Ray said he'd never read it but Bob thinks he did..
Good stuff

Even though B&R were using alot of scripted stuff from hired writers, this is still good stuff...especially when they break into ad-libbed conversation. Although past their prime here, ANY Bob and Ray is enjoyable to listen to. Thanks for posting.
The Gathering Dusk....

I love that 'next time' Edna visits the village is the tease, yet she never does make it to the village, does she?
Thank you

Thank you for Bob and Ray. I recommend listening while lying in bed, if you ever decide to lie around and not go to work. Ordinary times too! That’s how you start your day having laughed for 30 minutes. And how else will you ever meet Vaseline Hubbard?
There is now a Desperate Forum

The administrators at the Internet Archive have very graciously allowed a Forum for such questions and general discussion. However, the answer may be in episode #044.
