David Jacobson, 76, of Orleans, thinks comedy today leaves much to be desired.

“The humor today is not to my taste at all,” he said. “It’s a big put down and foul language and it’s just not funny any more.”

He’s just released on DVD a film he made 40 years ago that shows rare footage of two great comedians, Bob Elliott and Ray Goulding, who had a career that spanned almost five decades, entertaining audiences on radio, TV and commercials.
