Club Car Special is a radio show based on the March of Events and City Life Section of the Hearst Sunday newspapers, featuring the works of America's foremost humorists such as O.O. McKentyre, Will Rogers, George Eads, Stan Hilman, Arthur 'Bugs' Bayer, Milt Gross, Damon Runyon, and many others. The program invites listeners to join in for a lark and a laugh, offering a more relaxed and enjoyable travel experience compared to the hustle and bustle of modern transportation. The show starts with a sketch dramatizing a cartoon, followed by a short review of some humorous articles by Hearst's beloved writers, providing the perfect opportunity for listeners to relax and enjoy a drink while they explore the content of the upcoming Sunday newspaper.</p><p>The Club Car Special was presented by the Hearst Newspaper Syndicate and aimed to provide listeners with a teaser of the upcoming Sunday’s Newspaper inserts during the mid-week in a 15-minute format. While most reviewers believe that the main purpose of the program was to sell Sunday Newspapers, it is thought that its true purpose might have been to allow parents to enjoy parts of the Sunday paper before their children could take out all of the fun sections. Although details about the show's original air dates, broadcast networks, and episode count are not provided, Club Car Special stands as a unique and entertaining audio experience that takes listeners back to a simpler, more relaxed time in radio history.
