Episode 9 -Love On The Line with Peggy and Paul - Teen Soap Opera

Published: Feb. 9, 2020, 6:42 p.m.

Only about 18 recordings of this program remain... maybe that is okay... It was on the air in 1947 sort of as a "filler" when a station had to fill about 3 minutes of time. It was identified as a Teen Soap Opera... a "short" Teen Soap Opera between two lovesick southern teenagers who carry on their conversations all over the phone... hence on the line... yes, phone signals used to travel through a wire... some still do! On this track there are two 3 min episodes edited together as Paul brags about how he whipped Butch at the Football Banquet the night before and how his Uncle Joe got drunk again. Peggy tells Paul that her Aunt Prissy is transferring her to a school that she went to in Chattanooga, and Paul is very upset. Also Uncle Joe has been kicked out of the house because of his drinking. It's Love on the Line and more episodes in the Playlist "Peggy and Paul". This TRULY is a different kind of oldies show! :) Thanks for listening.
