During the Roaring 20’s, part of that “roaring” came from the media and entertainment of the time.  The radio, and the programs it featured, was the star of this new popular culture .  Your mission is to create a radio show from a particular year between 1918, when “The War to End All Wars” ended, and 1941, when World War II began for the United States. This will include segments on national news, international news, arts/culture or sports, and, of course, an advertisement (somebody will have to pay the bills!). You may choose a specific date during that year if you choose.
