What happens
Jane Stacy, a private secretary, shares a cramped New York apartment with her scatterbrained roommate Irma. Jane secretly loves her wealthy boss, Richard Rhinelander III, and hopes to impress him. When Irma invites him to dinner, Jane's carefully built image begins to crumble. Irma's boyfriend Al arrives with a business scheme of his own, and the evening turns chaotic. The series is My Friend Irma, and this episode first aired on CBS Radio on April 11, 1947, starring Marie Wilson and Cathy Lewis.

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.
