In a 1936 episode of Jack Benny's radio show, a woman says that her father sprained his ankle the night before while truckin'. This has an A Way with Words listener confused; she thought trucking was a term from the 1970s. Grant clears up the mystery, and along the way inspires Martha to bust some moves. This is part of a complete episode.
