Then Jack Benny, originally broadcast May 28, 1950, 75 years ago, Last Show of the Season. A reporter asks Jack about how he met all his cast members. The origin story of Superman, it ain’t. 

Followed by The Phil Harris-Alice Faye Show, originally broadcast May 28, 1950, 75 years ago, Tickets to South Pacific. Phil tries to get an extra two tickets to, "South Pacific."

Then Fibber McGee and Molly, originally broadcast May 28, 1946, 79 years ago, Flowers For The Anniversary.  It's the McGees' wedding anniversary, but Fibber seems to have completely forgotten.
