About this listen

Life in a postwar suburb has its ups and its downs—and that goes double for Mr. and Mrs. Piper, their daughter Betsy, and all their friends and neighbors. They've got laughs and logistical issues…parties and pet mishaps…kids, cars, and commotion.

Here are 32 consecutive episodes of writer-actress Peg Lynch's warm, funny, and eminently-relatable daytime serial comedy about everyday living. Alan Bunce co-stars as her husband in one of American radio's last serials.

The Couple Next Door (1957-1960) was a 15 minute comedy created and written by Peg Lynch, and was based on her earlier Ethel and Albert radio series. Lynch also starred on the program. Alan Bunce played the role of her husband, with Margaret Hamilton giving voice to the character of Aunt Effie. Madeleine Pierce (and later Francie Myers) portrayed daughter Betsy.
