What happens
Fibber McGee and Molly is an NBC Radio comedy, and this November 25, 1941 episode stars Harold Peary, Bill Thompson, Gale Gordon and Arthur Q. Bryan. Fibber and Molly McGee are offered a half-interest in a beauty clay mine by a miner who claims his find softened his hands overnight. Molly is tempted to invest, while Fibber urges caution. Their neighbor Abigail Appington has already bought into the scheme, and the story follows the couple as they learn more about the offer and the townspeople who have been drawn into it.

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.
