Volume 145: Inside Shelley Berman

One of the unique aspects of my dad’s collection is how many historically significant records he has in it. In this episode, we feature an example of this. This comedian, and this album, were the first to win a Grammy Award for Best Comedy Performance - Spoken, when the Academy first introduced that category in 1959.

So, get ready for a man on a stool who often pretended he was on the phone in Volume 145: Inside Shelley Berman.
