Over the past 20 years Tim Bedore has spent thousands of hours entertaining
audiences, first on the radio and then as a comedian,
headlining comedy clubs across the country. One of the
few comics to have combined the disciplines of standup
comedy and broadcasting, Tim knows the rigors
of working within demanding parameters. Tim has
kept his hand in the radio business through his radio
commentary feature Vague But True, which is heard
(since 1997) regularly on public radio’s prestigious
Marketplace program by over six-million people, and
the equally large audience on The Bob and Tom Show,
syndicated all across the country. Tim Bedore is a stand-up comedian whose
unique background has produced a very professional entertainer who knows how
to cut across the boundaries of individual attitudes and get an audience to enjoy
his way of looking at the world.

In the 1940s, during World
War II, more than 3 million
women were recruited for
war-related jobs.
While President Harry
Truman lobbied hard for a
national health insurance
program in the 1940s, the
AMA lobbied hard against
it, calling it “socialized
medicine,” and turned the
polls completely around
from a plan favored by the
American people to one that
was vanishing.
The baby boom began in
1945 and reached its height
in 1947, but it continued
for another 17 years. The
baby boom placed in high
demand goods and services
associated with the boom,
with the purchase of a home
being the largest expenditure.
Nostalgia for the 1950s began
while memories of the decade
were still fresh. Tail-finned
cars, hula hoops, poodle
skirts, Elvis Presley, mothers
in aprons, and “Leave
It To Beaver” conjure
up images of a genial
time that seems better,
softer, simpler. Indeed, the
years from 1950 to 1959
were a time of optimism,
domesticity, security
through compliance with
the system, and apparent
simplicity.
