8: EPISODE 8: RIO RITA

Abbott and Costello Meet The Podcast

Join us as your hosts, Nick Santa Maria and Jerry Sciarrio delve into the first of the boys' MGM films, RIO RITA (1942). Lou returns to the studio that didn't appreciate him back in the 1920s, and it's a lot of fun. You'll hear the whole story behind this film, and it goes all the way back to Flo Ziegfeld and Wheeler and Woolsey! You'll also hear a VERY rare clip from our friends at Goodson-Todman Game Shows. Enjoy!
