Step inside 79 Wistful Vista for Fibber McGee & Molly, the beloved American radio sitcom that aired from 1935 to 1959. Starring real-life husband and wife Jim and Marian Jordan as blustery, tall-tale-prone Fibber and his patient, quick-witted wife Molly, it turns everyday married life in the small town of Wistful Vista into gentle, wordplay-filled comedy. With a parade of eccentric neighbors always dropping by and Fibber's famously overstuffed hall closet ready to burst at any moment, it's a warm, lived-in classic that helped invent the sitcom and still feels instantly inviting today.

30 SEP 2026 · Aired: May 21st, 1935. Fibber tries to play tough guy when a bargain tire boot turns out to be a dud, marching back to the garage to give the proprietor a piece of his mind. With Molly cheerfully egging him on from the running board, his big bluster quickly deflates when he comes face-to-face with a former world champion wrestler. It's a classic early Wistful Vista runaround of cheap fixes, tall tales, and gentle marital teasing.

29 SEP 2026 · Aired: May 7th, 1935. Fibber and Molly sputter into a filling station on fumes, giving Fibber the perfect excuse to spin another outrageous tall tale. This time he claims he once rode a miracle jumper named Happy in England's grand Nobility Handicap — complete with a 60-foot water jump and an 11-foot hedge. A charming 1935 joyride full of wordplay, gentle marital sparring, and classic Fibber bluster.

28 SEP 2026 · Aired: Apr 30th, 1935. Fibber and Molly hit the road in their sputtering jalopy, running on fumes and Fibber's tall tales as they haggle for gas on the way to Milltown. At the filling station, a simple fill-up turns into a winding yarn about Myrtle the 115-year-old elephant, a chili-day parade in Wheeling, and a very unlucky pool hall. It's a classic early road-trip romp full of wordplay, whoppers, and small-town charm.

27 SEP 2026 · Aired: Apr 16th, 1935. Fibber McGee talks his way into trouble when he's pulled over by a motorcycle cop for running a red light on Route 42. Insisting the light wasn't lit — and therefore wasn't really a red light — he takes his tangled logic all the way to court. Expect fast-talking wordplay, gentle marital sparring with Molly, and a delightfully absurd courtroom showdown in this 1935 small-town comedy.

27 SEP 2026 · Aired: Jun 1st, 1931. Fibber pays a visit to Luke Gray's smack-out grocery store with elephants still on his mind, only to discover Luke's latest get-rich-quick scheme: repainting old bottles into candlesticks for a can't-miss bargain sale. Between wandering musings on how you'd ever get an elephant off the ground and a request for a tune on the melodeon, this early Smackout episode is a snapshot of the loose, meandering charm that would eventually grow into 79 Wistful Vista. A relaxed, low-key slice of pre-Fibber-McGee-and-Molly radio comedy.
