  • Trivia
    In 1940, "The Jack Benny Program" radio show was almost pulled off the air by Hollywood Musicians' Union Local 47 over a conflict with "The Jimmie Jackson Show", which was broadcast over Warner Brothers Hollywood station KFWB. During those ten years on KFWB the announcers for both his "Jimmie Jackson Show" and his "Jimmie Jackson's Memory Lane" show were Neil Reagan (brother of future US President Ronald Reagan) and Hal Smith (better known as Otis the Town Drunk on The Andy Griffith Show (1960)).
