Paul Frees was a lot like Mel Blanc, only not so well-known by
the public.
Frees was the voice of the Pillsbury Doughboy, Boris Badinoff,
Professor Ludwig Von Drake, and two of the Beatles in the popular
cartoon series.
He was both female voices when Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis posed as
women in Some Like It Hot.
He was the deep-voiced narrator of hundred of films, from The
Manchurian Candidate to Hardware Wars to Earth
vs. the Flying Saucers.
And he did every single voice heard on the short-story radio series
The Player.
This week, we present two episodes of The Player, starring Paul
Frees, Paul Frees, and, of course, Paul Frees.
