By Golly, it's Sounds Like Radio Volume 185 time as we celebrate Mrs. Potter's (better known as I Love Lucy's Mrs. Trumble) birthday on this Great Gildersleeve from December 3, 1952. That sneaky Egg Man has done it again and tricked Gildy into getting 2 ducks. Perfect for a Mrs. Potter birthday dinner.

This one from November 26, 1952 as Gildy is distracted from the turkey for just a moment when he gets a letter from the lovely Miss Tuttle. Well, suddenly things are just a bit brighter or is this call just for the birds. You'll find out what we is talking about when Bob Hope, Jaye P. Morgan, Jimmy Durante, Bing Crosby, Jo Stafford, William DeVaughn & the wonderful Doris Day (that's her in our picture with this show) all join us at this joyful Thanksgiving time. I give thanks for our musical Sounds Like Radio with Gildersleeve and our always fascinating Library of Sounds. Happy Turkey Day!

Your Humble Host, quite unconsciously has created a very happy and uplifting show.   While I didn't plan it I have selected some really great and positive songs.  I had to ask myself, why?   Then I realized I am feeling so very very good for our country the best I've felt since the 1980's.   Yes, our country's back on the right track again.   And for that matter so is little Leroy on the Great Gildersleeve.   In fact Leroy's been so good recently that Gildy's worried.   Well, we have a few people here that can give Gildy a hint as to why Leroy's feeling so good (and Your Humble Host too).   On hand today to add to our cheer are Mitch Miller (yes, we're going to Sing Along with Miitch!), Joni James, Bing Crosby, Rosemary Clooney, Buddy (Uncle Jed from the Beverly Hillbillies) Ebsen, Sergio Mendez & Wanda Sa, David Allyn & Annette Hanshaw.   Time to smile again and boy am I smilin'.
