Out of Gas at 42nd and Broadway

Fibber McGee and Molly’s journey through bustling city streets takes an unexpected turn when they find themselves stranded—out of gas right at the intersection of 42nd and Broadway. With honking cars piling up behind them, a flustered Fibber devises a “brilliant” plan to have Molly steer while he pushes. Just as things couldn’t get more chaotic, a stern police officer arrives, resulting in a hilarious exchange where Molly and Fibber try their best to avoid getting towed. The situation takes an unexpected twist when the officer recognizes Molly as a long-lost friend from Peoria, defusing the tension and sparking a delightful reunion. Packed with humor, zany mishaps, and a dash of nostalgia, this episode showcases Fibber’s knack for storytelling, including a sidetrack about his misadventures racing in London. The show wraps up with a musical interlude and another lively pitch for Johnson’s Auto Wax, proving once again that even a simple road trip can turn into a memorable misadventure with Fibber and Molly at the wheel.
