When You Were 8 And I Was 9
The Fire Chief shares two songs with listeners: one about sneezing called "I Took One Look Atchoo" and another about vegetables titled "I Water-Caress You." He also presents his own opera, which has the funny name "When You Were Eight and I Was Nine and We Were Seventeen." The main character is called Weatherstrip because he was born during wartime and helped keep his dad from going to war. Weatherstrip owns a dog named Einstein, though nobody really understands what makes Einstein so special. A group of eight singers performs the N.Y.U. school song, "Grim, Gray Palisades." The episode ends with the Fire Chief reading and answering letters from listeners.
“When You Were 8 And I Was 9.” Ed Wynn The Fire Chief. Radio broadcast, August 30, 1932.
