"Fibber McGee and Molly - 500502 The Fishing Trip" refers to an episode from the popular old-time radio comedy series Fibber McGee and Molly.


While specific plot details for episode 500502 are not readily available in general summaries of the show, we can infer some common themes and characteristics based on the series' nature and titles like "The Fishing Trip":
  • Plot: Given the title, the episode likely revolves around Fibber McGee's attempts to go fishing, which, true to his character, would probably involve some outlandish scheme, tall tales, and comedic mishaps. Molly, his patient wife, would likely be there to provide her usual common-sense remarks and try to keep Fibber grounded.
  • Characters: The episode would feature Jim Jordan as Fibber McGee, a habitual storyteller prone to exaggeration and getting into comical predicaments, and Marian Jordan as Molly, his calm and witty wife. Other recurring characters from Wistful Vista might also make an appearance.
  • Humor: The humor would stem from Fibber's inflated ego, his convoluted plans, and the classic banter between him and Molly. Sound effects, a hallmark of the show (especially Fibber's famously cluttered closet), would also play a role in the comedy.
The Fibber McGee and Molly radio show was a staple of American popular culture from 1935 to 1959, known for its domestic situation comedy and the misadventures of the working-class couple in the fictional town of Wistful Vista.

"The Fishing Trip" is one of many episodes from the long-running series.


It's listed as "Fm500502 The Fishing Trip" in some old-time radio catalogs, indicating it aired around 1950.
