Is it truly representative of that series? (Can anyone point to it and say, "Yes, that is what [NAME OF SERIES] was all about.")</em></p> <p><em>2. Is it an episode worthy of inclusion in any and every OTR aficionado's private collection?</em></p> <p>So with this in mind, we three bring you, as our eighth installment (and a selection from Essential Listener Melissa), this episode of <em>Burns & Allen</em> from 1942. We'll introduce the show, play it in its entirety, then discuss it at length. Thanks for joining us, and we hope you enjoy it! </p>
