A recently discovered "lost" episode from season 2. You may note that in these early episodes, Elliot Lewis tried to give Remley more of a "dim-witted hooligan" voice, before realizing his regular voice suited the character better. Also, Robert North wasn't pitching his voice quite as high for Willie. From November 9th, 1947 https://archive.org/download/philharrislosteps/4711097thAnniversaryGift.mp3
Presented here is OTR enthusiast Chuck Schaden interviewing Alice Faye, Phil Harris, and Elliott Lewis about the Harris/Faye show in these recordings from the 1970s and 1980s.

From June 28, 1954. Yet another retelling of how Phil and Alice met. This was the last episode of the 8th season, and also ended up being the last episode of the series. RCA did not renew their contract over the summer, and other sponsors had embraced television head-on, so this was to be the end of the Phil Harris-Alice Faye show. By the end of the 1950s, almost every old time radio program had transitioned to television or left the air entirely, with a remaining few that managed to hold on into the early 60s. Alas, they were replaced by an endless wasteland of top 40 pop hits and morning talk shows.

From October 26, 1952. Notes: Julius's age is never clearly stated during the series; he's implied to be a minor and seen attending the same school as the Harris girls (and dated Alice Jr. once just to annoy Phil), but he does have a driver's license and is seen vying with Phil for Alice Faye's affections in flashback episodes.

From October 5, 1952. Notes: The 1st episode of season 7. Jack Benny's show, on which the character of Frank Remley originated, had recently moved from NBC to CBS. The details of what followed are a bit unclear, but it seems there was a legal disagreement about which program had the rights to the "Frank Remley" name. Since the real Frank Remley, who the character was based on, worked for the Benny program (yet never voiced the character), the Remley name stayed with Benny, and remained a character that was always referenced and never heard on Jack's show. The writers of the Harris program therefore had to change the character's name from Frank Remley to Elliott Lewis (the real name of the actor who played him). This is explained in the show as Frank Remley being a stage name that Elliott has finally given up to appease his mother. Phil reacts with mild revulsion at the new name, perhaps reflecting audience's presumed feelings towards it as well. Frank Remley was known as Elliott Lewis for the remainder of the series. Lewis was later quoted as saying something along the lines of "It just didn't work as well as Frank Remley; Elliott Lewis just isn't a funny name."
