Bob and Ray Matinee


"This was the first regular radio series by the master absurdist improvisors, on Boston's WHDH, between 1946 and 1951. Bob Elliott was a WHDH morning DJ; Ray Goulding did the news on the hour, and what began as occasional little ad-libbed buffoonery became a regular series when WHDH asked them to do 25 minutes before a Red Sox or Braves game or to go on during rain delays." Here are 30 of those shows. Link in comments.

Wow, what a find.
I am a big Bob & Ray fan and I have NEVER heard of these.
Thank you.

I have to credit Usenet. Another Bob & Ray payload is on the way and perhaps it's rare as well.
