Baby Snooks

I love the old radio show Baby Snooks. I heard this episode
this morning driving in my car on WMOX from St. Louis. Snooks'
father is trying to explain Thanksgiving. Fannie Brice does the
voice of Baby Snooks. Doesn't she sound just like a brat?

That was very funny Kerry. Having two grand children makes it
even funnier since you can see ahead of time the traps the
father is going to fall into by his use of words.
Jeanette had to stop what she was doing to come over and listen
in.

And the poor fellow probably knows too but keeps falling into
them anyway. Her father sounds so genuinely angry it impresses
me. What an actor. I also get the feeling from that show that
we're supposed to believe they like each other deep down --
they're just dysfunctional in how they go about it.

I am glad you both liked it. There is an episode where the
father has to go to court and he tells Snooks what to say to
impress the judge. Of course, she lets the wrong things slip,
and the judge gets really angry at the father for getting his
daughter to try to deceive him. I'll see if I can find it or
some other episode.
Edit to add: I found it.

Baby Snooks reminds me of Carol Burnett. :D

Can eleven and four equal twelve? That's one of the questions
in "Jury Duty."

^^^For some reason, Kerry, this Baby Snooks moment reminds me of
Alice in Wonderland where Alice had her conversation about
impossible things. The narrative is as follows:
"Alice laughed: "There's no use trying," she said; "one can't
believe impossible things." "I daresay you haven't had much
practice," said the Queen. "When I was younger, I always did it
for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as
six impossible things before breakfast."
