Episode #376: Comedians On Suspense: The Life Of Riley

This week, as part of our epic 10-week quest that seeks to visit many comedians who appeared on the radio thriller series “Suspense,” and pare them with their radio programs, we’re stopping off at the popular sitcom, The Life of Riley, starring William Bendix as the well-meaning but often misguided Chester A. Riley. This is a Mother’s Day episode, and revolves around Riley's anxieties about his son Junior forgetting Mother's Day, leading to the show’s usual encounters with characters like Riley's friend Gillis (played by John Brown) and the undertaker Digger O’Dell (also played by John Brown!).
