The Golden Age of Radio, also known as the old-time radio era, was an era of radio programming in which radio was the dominant electronic home entertainment medium. It began with the birth of commercial radio broadcasting in the early 1920s and lasted through the 1960s, when television gradually superseded radio as the medium of choice for scripted programming, variety and dramatic shows.

Abroad with the Lockharts 1930-xx-xx (02) Sailing Day
Abroad with the Lockharts, aired in 1930 (exact date uncertain but following the series' debut around mid-August). This episode picks up after the planning phase, thrusting Will and Mrs. Lockhart into the start of their European adventure as they board a ship departing from New York.In "Sailing Day," the focus is on the couple’s embarkation, with Mrs. Lockhart buzzing with excitement about the journey ahead—destinations like London, Paris, and Rome on the horizon—while Will, ever the reluctant traveler, probably grumbles about leaving his familiar routine (and fishing gear) behind. The comedy likely stems from their contrasting reactions to the ship, the bustle of departure, and the looming prospect of a transatlantic voyage. Picture Will muttering about seasickness or the cost of the tickets, while Mrs. Lockhart marvels at the luxury liner and the promise of adventure.As one of the surviving early episodes (within the first seven known to exist), "Sailing Day" sets the tone for the travelogue format, blending humor with a vivid depiction of 1930s ocean travel—a glamorous yet daunting experience for Americans of that era, especially during the Great Depression. Gene Lockhart’s script would’ve leaned on his and Kathleen’s real-life chemistry to bring the scene to life.Listen to our radio station Old Time Radio https://link.radioking.com/otradioListen to other Shows at My Classic Radio https://www.myclassicradio.net/Entertainment Radio | Broadcasting Classic Radio Shows | PatreonRemember that times have changed, and some shows might not reflect the standards of today’s politically correct society.
