About a year ago I followed a link from here to an online archive of WW2 era radio programs, and downloaded a couple Fibber McGee shows. I now have the entire collection on CD, and my 8-year old won't listen to anything else in the car. How many 8-year olds do you know that specifically request 1940's radio shows? It is humbling to listen to the programs and think about what the entire country / world was experiencing at that time.
