Stewart, along with Frank Capra, appeared on this CBS program on January 22, 1947, sixty-nine years ago. In the east, the show was broadcast between 10:30 and 11 p.m.
A preview of the program was published in the Mason City Globe-Gazette, Mason City, IA:
Another preview in The Decatur Daily Review, Decatur, IL, added that Stewart and Capra were in New York on vacation.
A display ad for this and other CBS programs ran in the San Antonio Light, San Antonio, TX:
The film It’s a Wonderful Life had just opened and it’s likely that Stewart and Capra were in New York City to promote it. The show’s moderator was Clifton Fadiman. John Kieran, a sportswriter for the New York Times, and Franklin A. Adams, a columnist for the New York Tribune, were the show’s regular panelists. Oscar Levant, also a regular panelist, was not on the show this evening, which made room for the two guests. Questions were sent to the program from listeners. The panel would attempt to answer these questions. If they failed to do so, the listener who sent in the question would win a prize.
Unfortunately for Stewart fans, this show is not available.
