Episode 446: Christmas 1948: Fibber McGee and Molly

from The Good Old Days of Radio Show · host John Tefteller

In today’s episode, we’re unwrapping a classic from Fibber McGee and Molly, originally aired December 21st, 1948. The fun kicks off when Fibber finds a mysterious card signed “Love, Elizabeth,” and immediately jumps to all the wrong conclusions. The truth, of course, is far more innocent. It’s a charming slice of holiday mischief, complete with those wonderfully earnest Johnson’s Glo-Coat ads. We also talk about how this script later inspired a similar episode featuring Molly.
