In this classic TV moment, watch Shelley Berman, one of the first and best to do the one-sided telephone conversation, bring his irritable telephone solicitor to The Colgate Comedy Hour stage.
Berman was an American comedian, actor and writer who was awarded three gold records for his comedy albums. He also won the first Grammy Award for a spoken comedy recording in 1959. The Colgate Comedy Hour revival takes us back to 1967, the year war raged abroad with the Vietnam War and the Six-Day War, while at home Elvis and Priscilla tied the knot and the landmark Monterey Pop Festival launched.
Enjoy!
