What happens
Jack Benny spends a sunny day at his rented house in Palm Springs with his friends Mary Livingstone, Phil Harris, Dennis Day, Don Wilson and his servant Rochester. The group gathers at Jack's swimming pool, where a series of comic mishaps unfolds, from Jack's failed swimming and diving lessons to a clumsy attempt at sunbathing. Later the friends set out on a hike with an Indian guide toward Tahquitz Falls, roped together and carrying supplies. The broadcast is part of the Jack Benny series, which first aired on March 2, 1941, on NBC and CBS Radio.

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.
