''The Kate Smith Hour''
Daytime variety/talk show. Kate Smith sings a few songs, plus there is an interview with T. Coleman Andrews (Commissioner of Internal Revenue), some guest singers, a fairy tale storytelling segment, plus there is a interesting production number called "Skyscraper Blues", along with too many commercials (since this is a daytime show, it features more commercials than a prime-time show). Sound quality isn't so great, as I had to use an inferior DVD ripper since my regular DVD ripper wouldn't rip this properly.
