This episode of House Party features an early edition of “Kids Say the Darndest Things,” the beloved segment hosted by Art Linkletter that would later become one of the most enduring concepts in television history. Long before it became a TV staple, Linkletter was already charming radio audiences with candid conversations featuring schoolchildren and their wonderfully unpredictable answers.
In this broadcast, a group of Los Angeles schoolchildren share their ambitions, opinions, and observations about life—from movie-star impressions and business ventures to future dreams of acting, marriage, and radio. Linkletter’s gentle humor and quick reactions allow the comedy to emerge naturally, creating a warm portrait of childhood curiosity in postwar America.
Originally part of the long-running House Party radio program, the segment captured something timeless: the unexpected honesty and imagination of children speaking entirely for themselves. More than seven decades later, the conversations remain funny, revealing, and surprisingly familiar. Subscribe to the Old Time Radio Snack Wagon at https://www.snackwagon.net
