Does anybody else love Stan Freberg?

whoa...on my friends' page it has the video to be some language commercial, but on the vintage ads' page it's the soup commercial that was the moderated submission.....weird!!!

How strange indeed! It's showing up normal on both for me.

Freberg is my favorite. In fact the first ad I ever submitted here was one of his radio commercials. Have you listened to all of The Stan Freberg Show episodes? Just fantastic.

I haven't listened to all the radio shows, because I just discovered them yesterday on archive.org!

Somewhere once I read that Jim Henson was inspired by Freberg and now I really see it in his work.

When you start listening to them, pay attention to the other people he has working with him; the other two voice actors he has with him on those shows were a couple of absolute titans of the art. As is he himself.

Oh yes, I have already picked out June Foray :-)

BTW, if you love OTR, I have been trying to bring old_time_radio back to life :-D
