Fibber McGee & Molly - January 13, 1948 - Fibber Invents the Cartable Radio

In this episode, McGee's latest get-rich quick scheme is inventing the "cartable radio". This was what portable radios were called before we all settled on calling them that.

At that time, a radio was still a big piece of furniture in your living room. In about ten years, however, transistors came along and made portable electronics practical.

In all, a fun episode with all the humor and wordplay that made Fibber McGee and Molly a classic.
