Alka Seltzer Time, also known as The Alka-Seltzer Show, was a 15-minute radio program featuring a mix of popular tunes and upbeat jingles performed by vocalists Curt Massey and Martha Tilton. The show was described as &quot;informal song sessions&quot; and often featured accompanying music by Country Washburne and His Orchestra, with Charles LaVere on piano. Tunes performed on the show included &quot;Honey, I&#39;m in Love with You&quot;, &quot;A Gambler&#39;s Guitar&quot;, &quot;Just to Be with You&quot;, &quot;Moonlight&quot;, &quot;When Love Goes Wrong&quot;, &quot;Choo Choo Train&quot;, &quot;I&#39;ve Got Spurs that Jingle Jangle Jingle&quot;, &quot;Put on a Bonnet&quot;, &quot;On the Sunny Side of the Street&quot;, &quot;Papaya Mama&quot;, and &quot;Istanbul, Not Constantinople&quot;. The show occasionally featured theme episodes such as &quot;Go West&quot;, music from &quot;Old Phonograph Records&quot;, and &quot;Salute to Hawaii&quot;.</p><p>The radio show aired weekdays between 1949 and 1954 on both CBS Radio and the Mutual Broadcasting System. It began as The Curt Massey Show and was later renamed to The Alka-Seltzer Show in 1952 to highlight the show&#39;s sponsor. The show aired at different times throughout its run, with broadcasts on Mutual at noon Eastern Time and later in the day on CBS at 5:45 pm Eastern. A total of 115 episodes from this series are still known to exist today. Curt Massey and Martha Tilton continued to work together beyond the radio show, appearing on television programs such as Guest Star and Stars for Defense and recording an album titled &quot;We Sing the Old Songs&quot; in 1957.
