Description Technical Specs
 
Can you guess what famous American comedian is famous for uttering these snappy one-liners?

"I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me."

"Hollywood is a place where people from Iowa mistake each other for movie stars."

"Television is a device that permits people who haven’t anything to do to watch people who can’t do anything?

Any guesses? Will Rogers? Bob Hope? Dennis Miller? Well, unless you’re a comedy expert or lived during the golden age of radio, you probably wouldn’t know that the these quotes are the property of the late, great Fred Allen. Fred Allen invented an entirely new form of radio comedy which consisted of lampooning current events, making fun of his sponsors and presenting skits that featured a recurring cast of memorable characters. In many ways his humor was too sophisticated for the times, but it did pave the way for the success of satirist Stan Freberg in the fifties and Saturday Night Live in the seventies.
