Very few shows from Radio’s golden age had an impact that still today resonates throughout society and entertainment. One such program left its mark indelibly on performers, on our language, on popular culture in a number of ways. Why is evident in The Fibber McGee and Molly Show, The 1939/1940 Season from Radio Archives!
Best known as the blustery storyteller and his witty, long suffering wife, Jim and Marian Jordan did in fact have a lot in common with Fibber and Molly, having married in 1918. Their lives together were marked with many ups and downs as well as a multitude of other amazing characters, real and fictional, joining Jim and Marian as they made ‘Fibber McGee and Molly’ not only a hit on the radio, but a remarkable page all its own in American history!
