Goodwin had another radio program a decade later. The 55-minute
Bill Goodwin Show was broadcast on
NBC radio beginning March 25, 1957. It was carried by 95 of the network's affiliates and sponsored by
Schick razors. This program was a variety show with Robert Linn and the Hi-Fi's quartet providing music and
David Ketchum doing comedy. Howard Blake produced, directed, and wrote for the series. Other writers were Fred Fox, David Gregory, and Glenn Wheaton. A review of the premiere episode in the trade publication
Variety complimented the musical performances but said that Ketchum's comedy lacked humor. It described the talk portions of the episode as "limp and forced", suggesting that the show would benefit from "good pruning of the chatter and sharper writing". == References ==
