    Ring any bell? I heard that name very often as a kid. Not sure I understood what it was all about:

    "Lorenzo Jones was a daytime radio series which aired on NBC in different timeslots over an 18-year span."
    "Each episode opened with this introduction:
    We all know couples like lovable, impractical Lorenzo Jones and his devoted wife, Belle. Lorenzo's inventions have made him a character to the town, but not to Belle, who loves him. Their struggle for security is anybody's story, but somehow, with Lorenzo, it has more smiles than tears... and now, let's smile awhile with Lorenzo Jones and his wife, Belle."

    From 1937 to 1949, the sponsors were Phillips Milk of Magnesia and Bayer Aspirin, followed by Procter & Gamble (1949–55)."

    No, I was four years old in 1955 and I wasn't into talk radio yet.
