Hot Dogs, Blowouts, and Fibber’s Bumpy Road

In this laugh-filled adventure (April 30, 1935), Fibber McGee and Molly take to the road, navigating everything from questionable gas station math to hot dog cravings. Their trusty jalopy is pushed to the limit as Fibber insists on his unique methods of tire maintenance—blaming bumpy mountain air for a lumpy wheel! Along the way, Fibber regales Molly with one of his tall tales about an elephant named Myrtle who broke her leg in the most absurd fashion imaginable.

Between the roadside antics and a stop at a hot dog stand, Fibber manages to charm and exasperate Molly in equal measure. Packed with clever wordplay, slapstick humor, and nostalgic charm, this episode is a classic showcase of the comedic chemistry that makes Fibber McGee & Molly an enduring favorite. A lively tune and a whimsical Johnson's Auto Wax ad add even more fun to the mix. Remastered for the clearest audio, it’s a must-listen for old-time radio fans!
