In the 9th episode of season 15 of the 5 Minute Biographies podcast, we take a brief look at the life of Bing Crosby. Beyond the crooning and Christmas carols, Bing Crosby was a multimedia titan. We will take a quick dive into the Crosby legacy, exploring his rise to radio stardom, his smooth transition to film (including that Oscar win!), and his influence on the early days of television. We'll uncover the secrets to his enduring popularity and ask if Bing Crosby was the original all-around entertainer.
