We are a society that is definitely spoiled by the many entertainment options available to us. When radio was first invented, it was an invention that many could not believe possible. The ability to hear stories and entertaining shows that did not come from a real person sitting in our living room was incredible.

You know those day time series that never end. Men and women alike, though it is statistically mostly women, who can not bear to miss even one episode of their most loved day time program.
Soap operas got their start as programs on the radio. They were sponsored by soap manufacturers, soap manufacturers who knew that is was in large women who purchased their products. These radio programs were directed at women and were aired on the radio during the day when most women were cleaning and cooking at home.
