Re: [ARSCLIST] blooper samples?
My favourite Kermit Schafer blooper is the introduction to the country music
song "There's an empty bunk in the cathouse tonight."
I am also partial to the Duck and Duchess of Windsor and the 21 Sun galoot.
One I remember that is not a spoonerism came from a radio play about Abe
Lincoln featuring Raymond Massey. As the train pulled out of the station
the extras called out - "Good-bye Abe", "Have a good trip", "Good-bye.
President Lincoln," Then a rather diffident voice called out meekly,
"Good-bye, Mr. Massey."
Does anyone know whether the BBC children's programme item that ends with
"Throw your balls up in the air and play with them" is legit.?

The record you mention was compiled by Kermit Schaeffer and was called, I
think, Best Of The Bloopers. These collections were quite popular in their
time. I think these may have been mail order products advertised on UHF
stations but my memory may be faulty in this regard. I recall all those
bloopers too...to my pre-adolescent sensibility these uncensored moments
were quite hilarious.
