Old time radio for Christmas - Fibber McGee and Molly 1946

I do actually listen to Fibber and Molly nightly as I go to bed. They are my favorites. This post WWII episode is delightfully light hearted while still sending good message: (30 minutes)
BTW - the little girl - usually referred to a Sis - is just Molly (Marian Jordon) speaking in a high voice.

I have every one of the available Fibber McGee (Or should I say "The Johnson's Wax Program&quot episodes on MP3 and I often play them at bedtime to fall asleep to.

I am old enough that I actually listened to them live on my crystal radio lo those many years ago. Them and "Lum and Abner".
