About
Easy Aces—a radio show -written by Goodman Ace, starred himself as a stressed out realtor and the exasperated but loving husband of the deceptively scatterbrained, malaprop-prone Jane Ace ("You've got to take the bitter with the better"; "Time wounds all heels")---The Easy Aces program became a long-running 15 minute serial comedy (1930-1945) and a low-keyed legend of old-time radio for its literate, bland conversational style and the malaprops of the female half of the team, the real-life spouse of Goodman Ace, his wife Jane. The show was done without an audience and is noticeably quiet. No sound effects… just dialog. Sort of the same basis as Vic and Sade. There is an "Easy Aces" Playlist on this Podcast. Two back-to-back episodes are on this track. The first one is "A Game of Bumper Cars" from May 13, 1941 and the second "Jane and Dorothy Visit Mr. Ace." from January22, 1943.
