A Robert Benchley Comedy: See Your Doctor

On National Take Care Week, our host looks at the fine line between when to worry about one's health and when not. In one such situation, Joe Doakes gets what he believes is a bee sting on his hand. But his brother-in-law convinces Joe's wife Mabel that perhaps it isn't a bee sting but something more serious, like a potentially fatal black widow spider bite. Joe and his brother-in-law rush down to the relief office to have it checked by a doctor. Joe's anxiety increases the slower the admitting nurse and doctor get around to checking his hand. The doctor's ultimate diagnosis makes Joe's worrying start all over again.
