Best pun in history
Spoken by author Richard Maney in this Info Please episode from May 1943. I don't want to spoil it; just listen to the clip. To save time, skip the first 8 minutes and listen especially for the question about Jap Admiral Yamamoto.
The episode also includes some delightful banter by Ethel Barrymore, who was well-informed, thoroughly pro-American, and a great laugher. Unlike modern Hollywood types, decerebrate Leninbots incapable of humor. ¶ 5:23 AM
