What happens
Throckmorton P. Gildersleeve decides to get in shape and have a campaign portrait taken before running for mayor of Summerfield. He jogs each morning with his nephew Leroy, has his hair cut at Floyd Munson's barber shop, and arranges a photographer, Mr. Hostetter, to come to the house. His niece Marjorie and the household take part as the sitting goes ahead. The Great Gildersleeve is a radio comedy series, and this episode first aired on NBC on March 26, 1944, starring Harold Peary, Willard Waterman, Lillian Randolph and Lurene Tuttle.

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.
