What happens
George Burns and Gracie Allen are at the breakfast table when George, reading the newspaper, sends Gracie to a women's lecture series at the Philharmonic to improve her mind. Gracie returns from the lecture fired up about women's rights, and George finds himself at odds with her new campaign. The story follows Gracie's growing enthusiasm for the cause, which spreads to her neighbors as her friends and relatives get drawn into the debate. The episode is part of the Burns and Allen radio series, first broadcast on June 9, 1949, with Gracie Allen and Bea Benaderet among the cast.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
