What happens
Jack Benny and Don Wilson spend a long morning locked in the den, arguing over Don's new contract. Don wants more money, and Jack keeps offering other perks, including a clause forbidding eating during broadcasts. Mary Livingston arrives and mentions a party at Barbara Stanley's home that she plans to attend. Later Jack visits a dentist's office across the hall, where a series of mix-ups leave him in the chair. The Jack Benny program aired on January 23, 1949 on NBC and CBS Radio, starring Jack Benny, Mary Livingstone, Eddie Anderson and Phil Harris.

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.
