# Fibber McGee and Molly: Supervisor of the State Fair
Picture yourself settling into your favorite chair on a crisp autumn evening in the 1940s, radio dial glowing softly in the gathering darkness. Tonight's broadcast of Fibber McGee and Molly finds our lovable protagonist in his most ambitious scheme yet—he's somehow managed to land the position of Supervisor of the State Fair. What could possibly go wrong? Everything, naturally. As Fibber spins his tall tales and half-baked plans to impress the fair committee, listeners will delight in the familiar chaos that inevitably unfolds. Molly, ever the voice of reason and withering wit, delivers perfectly-timed barbs at her husband's grandiose delusions, while the supporting cast of McGee's Hill residents pop in to witness the glorious unfolding disaster. The comedic timing is impeccable, the wordplay sharp as a tack, and the gentle humor reminds us why millions of Americans made this program an appointment with their radios.
For nearly twenty-five years, Fibber McGee and Molly reigned as one of radio's most beloved institutions, a show that transcended mere entertainment to become a genuine American cultural phenomenon. Jim and Marian Jordan, who wrote and performed as the titular couple, perfected the art of domestic comedy—that special alchemy of affection, exasperation, and laughter between husband and wife. This incomplete 1940s episode captures the show at its creative peak, when the writing was razor-sharp and the ensemble cast had developed genuine chemistry.
Don't miss this opportunity to experience a treasured slice of American radio history. This rare, partially-preserved broadcast offers a fascinating window into the entertainment that captivated a nation during wartime, proving that sometimes the best escape from reality comes from the comfortable domestic squabbles of 79 Wistful Vista.
