Today, the fascinating tale of Abbott and Costello's rise to stardom—a journey sprinkled with hot dogs, mustard, and a dash of destiny. We feature "Show Stoppers," a 15-minute radio program that highlighted the pivotal moments when stars were born.

Dive into the duo's candid interview as they reminisce about their early days, from the struggle for their next gig to their big break on Kate Smith's radio show. But it's their legendary mustard routine that truly transformed their careers, turning a simple hot dog stand banter into a show-stopping act that catapulted them to fame on Broadway and beyond.

Relive the magic of their iconic sketch and learn how a condiment controversy became their ticket to the limelight. It's a classic comedic tale that proves sometimes, the recipe for success is as simple as a hot dog... with or without the mustard.

Original Air Date: March 13, 1946
