Radio Journeys 85

In a special, "encore" presentation, we re-broadcast the pilot episode of Radio Journeys, now edited and improved. We jump into 1930, with three shows from that year: "The Life of Irene Castle" (photo at right), the earliest known recording of a full daytime women's program; "The Voice from the Housetops," another syndicated "musi-mercial"; and "Coca-cola Top Notchers," from March 19,1930, the earliest known recording of a full network entertainment program.
