Later, from September 3, 1945, to May 27, 1946, Russell appeared on the CBS radio comedy show, "The Joan Davis Show", which originated out of New York City. This program aired on Monday nights from 8:30 - 8:55 p.m. "Popular crooner Andy Russell served as both the variety anchor for The Joan Davis Show as well as Joanie's love interest in the situation comedy series ... delivered as expected to the swoons and cheers of his millions of female fans of the era." In addition to singing, Russell also acted and played straight man to comedian Joan Davis. Paul Weston and his Orchestra provided the music.
