KIDS CLAPPING AND CHEERING MORE LOUDLY

CARNIVAL MUSIC SWELLS
UNCLE BOSCO: Hiya kids! (pause for cheers) Today we are going on a trip to the highest mountain in the world, Mt. Tall Top! (pause for cheers) We’re going to search for the very rare BLOOP-BLOOP BIRD! Now who wants to go with me?
KIDS: Me! Me! Yay! Etc.
Uncle Bosco: Hey, look at that, I guess everyone wants to ride in Uncle Bosco’s super buzz-plane! But I see one little boy in the front row wearing his Uncle Bosco pin, which he got with only 5 tops from cans of Bosco chocolate milk amplifier syrup! Skinny, why don’t you bring him up here with me?
Skinny: Yes sir Uncle Bosco! Yippee this is a lucky boy!
Uncle Bosco: You bet he is!
Skinny: He doesn’t want to come on stage, Uncle Bosco!
Uncle Bosco: Sure he does, just take his arm and bring him –
(interrupting) Skinny: OW! He bit me!
Uncle Bosco: Now now son, settle down and-
(interrupting ) Skinny: He’s kicking me!
ANNOUNCER: Say, I think we’ll find another young Bosco-teer right after we take this commercial break for Bosco!

Skinny: He’s LOOSE! THE KID IS LOOSE!
Uncle Bosco: Now kid, give Uncle Bosco back his script…

Mr. Blog's Tepid Ride 
So basically this was a commercial disguised as a kiddie show? I thought that was a more modern invention!

Basically, that is what old time radio was: Jack Benny for Jello, Burns and Allen for Maxwell House, the Shadow for Blue Coal, etc.
