The 1920s... Radio, Slang, Flappers and More...

 

100 years ago life was very different in some ways, and somehow not so different. Here are a few videos about the 1920's and the evolution of the radio, slang and more. Check it out: 


The Development Of Radio In The 1920s

In this video, I'll focus on the development of radio in the 1920s, from the amateur phase that continued into the early years, to the radio craze beginning in around 1922, to the creation of radio networks by the end of the decade. For a deeper look into the types of programs broadcast over the radio in the 1920s, stay tuned for Part 2!


Slang of the 1920s

The 1920s was at the beginning of the modern era, and slang really began to become more mainstream. The blossoming of youth culture and the secretiveness that Prohibition created especially helped the development of new slang among young people.
