Radio Daze: “Fibber McGee And Molly” Is Classic Comedy With A Truly Talented Supporting Cast!

Howdy Folks! Welcome to another episode of Radio Daze! This episode will return us to Wistful Vista, home of Fibber McGee And Molly! Jim and Marian Jordan rivaled Burns And Allen as the funniest husband and wife team in Old Radio. “Fibber McGee And Molly” also feature one of the finest supporting casts in comedic radio. Actors such as Gale Gordon, Arthur Q. Bryant, and the delightful Bill Thomspon (who performed at least a half dozen characters) and others always had the audience in stitches when they visited 79 Wistful Vista. Harold Peary became a household name as the Great Gildersleeve and was so popular he even got his own long running spinoff show! These two episodes are from February of 1943 and feature many of these same cast members. It’s a classic comedy with the ability to make you chuckle all these decades later! Enjoy! So Sayeth The Kendog!
