Acceptable language was so different back in those days. I still enjoy radio so much, although it has changed greatly since those years.

We used to listen to shows on the radio way into the 60's. Austrakian shows ...Dad and Dave...an Australian hill billy comic show and from America a soapy, "When a girl marries."

Good afternoon
Those had to be some really great times in your life. As for the television, it's hard to miss the things that you don't know about or that hadn't been invented yet. I do remember when television was only black & white, at least it was in my house until I was nine. My grandparents used to talk about the many radio programs and shows, and I remember the Waltons listening to news of WWII on their farm radio in the hills. It was one of my favorite shows that I watched daily when I was a teenager.

Good Morning
Pat, I remember my grandparents had a big radio that was like a piece of furniture in the living room of their farm. The farm was in the hills of West Virginia.

My grandma in her later years had a television, but she always called it The Radio--which drove my mom kinda nuts because Grandma never learned!
I wonder how radio would have evolved as an entertainment medium, had tv never come along.
