Good stuff Jordan. Recently I became the caretaker of one of Red's "Freddie the Freeloader" hats from the 50s that Red gifted to a friend named F. Victor Larkin, who at the time was the CBS VP in charge of West Coast Facilities. At one time, he was the assistant to CBS' project engineer who was in charge of building Television City, Victor took over by 1955. Glad to see Mark Kratzner, he's a great guy! Glad to see you continue to represent the classics on your channel!
Thats incredible
@@DazewithJordantheLion it's been a passion and privilege of mine to take care of the items I get to take care of. Hope to share some of them coming up, getting a bunch of stuff in for the archives of a Howdy Doody fan club I'm the social media manager for (like the Howdy in my profile picture, cast from the original). Sometimes, instead of you finding things, the pieces find you lol
Sooo great ❤
That's cool
I am so excited to see this pop up! My mother in law is related to Richard Skelton! 😊 Going to share this with her over Christmas. Thank you Jordan!
I'm almost 70 years old and what great memories of watching Red Skelton on TV. Loved all of the characters he did, but when he did the Pledge of Allegiance WOW still makes me cry to this day. Thank you Jordan. Wising you and Katie a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Years.
I grew up in Palm Desert, California in the late 1960's and as a teenager, we would see Red in his Rolls Royce around town frequently. He always had a smile and was very nice to everyone . Red was just a kind person. He always sported a smile and took the time to acknowledge anyone who recognized him. He was a stand out guy in the community. Thank you for this video, Jordan. It is like visiting an old friend after all of these years.
One of my husbands grandmothers lifetime thrills was her and grandpa rode an elevator with him. She always talked about how funny and gracious he was.
THANKS FOR THE GREAT TOUR OF THE RED SKELTON MUSEUM! HE WAS TRULY GIFTED AND CERTAINLY ONE OF A KIND ICON.
I know they have their job to do, but I love how you know so much more on your subjects than they do. And you’re so nice & polite about it. You do your homework well my friend! I love that‼️🧡
Really appreciated his clean humor. Loved him! Thanks for sharing! Enjoyed!❤
My mom and I used to watch Red all the time. Love this! Merry Christmas to you, yours and everyone! 🎄🎅
Brightened My Day! Red Skelton has always been one of my favorites, from early-childhood. Loved him, so much!
That was awesome, thank you! Red's Pledge of Allegiance should be a must watch for every American! I remember his show very fondly.
This is incredible! Thank you for sharing this with us. ❤
❤❤ I love Red Skelton. One of my favorite TV shows growing up in the 60s.🎉🎉
Was there in Feb and had so much fun, Red was a Good Soul, and one funny man. Enjoyed this so Much can't wait to go back.
I was 8 years old when his show was on. Our family never missed it. Good stuff!
Thank you for this one!! I met him when I was in college. He was speaking that evening and walked thru the student center. Wow..he was so nice,so funny and very much made a lasting good memory for me. My parents were such big fans of his too.
Wow what a video! Gotta love Red Skelton and I loved his Freddie the Freeloader character. I learned quite a bit about his life & that's a really cool story about Michael Richards & Red. I never knew all the stuff he did back in his vaudeville days, that's something. I need to plan a trip to Indiana to see this.
Oh, I love red skeleton. I remember watching him. I think it was in the 60s. I enjoyed watching his comedies sketches and I know he was also in some movies but I can’t think right now which ones😊❤❤❤❤❤❤
I grew up watching The Red Skelton Show & I loved him dearly. The characters he did on the show; Clem Kadiddlehopper, Gertrude & Heathcliff were wonderful. Thank you for this Jordan! I hope you & Katie have a wonderful & Blessed Christmas!
I remember watching Red Skelton on TV as a child. I loved his show and his specials. Thank you so much for sharing this. I may have to plan a trip up that way!
always loved RED.......thank you for this jordan...
Really enjoyable and informative video and an impressive museum!!! I was born in Vincennes and have been across the Red Skelton Bridge many times. I had no idea his house still stands. I’ll have to make a trip back to see this amazing museum!!!
Ty for this Jordan I loved Red Skeleton and his TV show, watched every week and so sad when it ended💔great comedian
Errol Flynn's last professional appearance was as a beatnik freeloader on Red's show. Young Beverley Aadland, Errol's final girlfriend also appeared on that episode. Red's show was an institution when I was a kid. Thanks Jordan.
Red Skelton was a part of my childhood memories. I think as a child Klim Kaddilehopper and Mean Widdle Kid were the best. The best memory was hearing my Dad's laughter.
I grew up watching Red Skeleton..Thanks for Sharing
This is a really impressive museum, made all the more impressive by an exceptionally knowledgeable gentleman - many thanks to him for this amazing tour. Also Jordan, many thanks for this episode and for the many terrific episodes you have given us over 2024. A Merry Christmas to you, Katie and Jah.
I been to the museum and lived in Vincennes for 4 years as a Vincennes University student studying graphic design from 99-03. Then years later i graduated VU. The campus built the Red skelton theater and performing arts building for the University. Reds widow donated 4 million for the project. There is Reds awards also donated by his widow at the theater. My dad was a big Skelton fan.
Great Vlog Jordan! Grew up watching Red’s show and specials. We hope to visit this year on are way to Ohio!
I loved Red. I remember watching him on TV as a kid. I learned a lot about Red from this video.Thank you Jordan for this lovely video. You, Jah and Katie have a very Merry Christmas. Take care.
Jordan My family always watched the Red Skelton show when I was just a little kid! How you find all this is amazing. Merry Christmas to you Katie and Jah Cheri
Thank you so much, Jordan - a pleasant surprise, as I wasn't aware of this fine museum (and theater)! I grew up in the 50s and as a family we watched Red Skelton every week, I think (mostly) it was on during the week and probably one of only one or two TV shows we were allowed to watch on a "school night".
I have an autographed photo from Red...I had mailed a fan letter to him requesting it, and when I got it I remember studying the signature and could see the impression of the signature lines pressing through the photo paper and visible on the back side. I finally had it archival-mounted in a picture frame, and there it still hangs in my home office.
Also remember once considering to purchase one of his original paintings...can't remember from where, but it seems like it was from a store in California which exclusively sold his originals and prints at the time...I almost bought one (a small Freddy the Freeloader canvas) but ultimately declined, as it was a princely sum for us in those days. Some years later, a personally signed print cost nearly as much...wished I had at least bought the print now!
But all that is besides the point...his manner and humor was such a positive influence on me, and I still occasionally watch one of his TV shows or movies on DVD, his comedy is timeless.
Merry Christmas Jordan!
I'm from Holland, and I have to admit, I don’t really know who Red Skelton is. But honestly, that doesn’t matter-I just love your videos about old Hollywood stars from days gone by. I wanted to point out something that caught my eye: I’m a huge Charles Bronson fan, and to my surprise, I spotted him in a picture with 'Cauliflower McPugg' at 34:52.
Thank you Jordan. I really loved Red Skelton. He was so damn talented. Bless him
I wish we still had the Phenomenal Comics of the past with us. Clean, Family Friendly Humor.
Red Skeleton was funny I liked his Show the Red Skeleton Show. I read a book about his life. I get books by mail from the napa county library. Nice childhood home of red Skeleton and nice museum for him I would love to visit the museum. Good vlog jordan
It is always great to see your videos, and Merry Christmas to you and Katie, God bless you
I haven't watched this yet but I know I'm going to love it. Red Skelton is my all-time favorite comedian, and you, Jordan, are my favorite vlogger.
Have a Merry Christmas 🎁 Jordan
Great video Jordan God Bless you Brother!!✌️🇺🇲
Hi Jordan & Katie you tube channel Love my favorite one fan BIG Marry Christmas 🎄 ⛄️❄️ Happy New YEAR 2025 🎉
Love it, thanks for all your hard work. Merry Christmas Jordan & Katie
This place is one of my favorite places! We spent my birthday there this year! The museum is absolutely qmazing ❤ Also Hank Kimball from Green Acres was born in Vincennes, IN!
Red Skeleton was a national treasure. Use to live to watch his show.
Thanks for sharing Jordan and Jah
I loved watching old Red Skelton comedy skits when i was a little girl!! 🥰
So many memories of the Red Skelton Show! My parents watched every popular TV show!!
Loved this video, growing up remember watching his show. Merry Christmas Jordan & Katie!
I love Red Skelton. I visited his final resting place at Forest Lawn Glendale last year. A maintenance man went and put a flower in his area for me. I got to stand in front of it but not go in. I loved when he appeared on the old show What's My Line. Jordan if you see this I think you'd do great videos about the Whats My Line cast.
Cool Museum! Happy Holidays Jordan!
Thanks for sharing this I watch Red Skeleton on RUclips Merry Christmas Jordan
Thanks for letting us know that we can still see Red Skelton shows on RUclips
Jordan you need to come to Evansville Indiana just down the road from Robin Williams grandparents are buried here the exterior house used for Rosanne is here. Don mattingly is from Evansville
I would watch Red every wk - The guy was hilarious - Always cracking himself up . . .
I used to watch his shows when I was little girl along with my brother ,mom he was a very funny man thank you for sharing this video Jordan
I was lucky enough to watch a live show of Reds just a few years before his death. I also worked with his great nephew in Fort Wayne In.
Glad to see you in Vincennes. Jordan
I have a numbered autographed print of Red's. It's a painting of one of his famous hobo clowns. My parents bought it in Hawaii in 1979 at one of his traveling showcases or whatever. It hags on my wall to this day.
His family has not been active in licensing or promoting his legacy, which is a shame. I'm surprised but happy that there is a museum!
Loved watching Red Skeleton as a kid
I saw Red in person with my grandma back in the 80’s at the Mitchell Corn Palace in South Dakota. He was still hilarious! Then in the 90’s, we ran into an art studio on Coronado Island that carried a lot of his clown artwork. I wish I had made a purchase that day, but I didn’t. Props to Red‼️
neat video
merry Christmas
I have heard they have the famous concrete slab from the Chaplin Studios with Charlie's signature. The one at the studio (currently) was cast from the slab they hold.
Not that I'm obsessed with the idea of seeing it someday. I have been in the studios to see his original footprints. But Red removed the signature slab when he owned the studios.
I met Red Skelton in the 1980"s at the Paramount theater in Seattle he was the nicest person
❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉good stuff
Vincennes!
Merry Christmas!
I have reds autograph . Very nice man.
When I was a child my grandparents gave my brother and I an original signed Red Skelton clown painting that said "to my little buddies". Unfortunately, our father and his new young wife stole the painting from us and tried to replace the painting with a clown POSTER and counterfeit signature.
Fortunately, our grandmother let us know that that was not the painting they had given us.
Yeah, messed up family right.
You were 6blocks from my childhood home nice
Don’t forget Red was always on the Dean Martin comedy hour
Charles Bronson was in that locker room photo with Mc Pugg
Growing up watch him on tv
My home town my 3 rd cousin
He bought Charlie Chaplins studio and owned it for awhile. I didnt appreciate him taking Charlies footprints which were there for years and putting them in his house in palm springs....where are they now?
Been there
I can just barely remember watching his show.
I grew up on Red Skelton (my dad was a fan). I am not a fan of clowns
I met him in 1968 at CBS studio. Asked to have a picture with him and he graciously agreed. Nice memory with that photo.
