A few nights ago, I happened upon an old-time radio program that sounded like something made pre-1950s but I may be off a bit on that. Regardless, it was an announcer who was asking all kinds of science, math, arts etc. questions of a group of smart kids of varying ages. It was simply stunning to hear these kids talk their way through complex mathematical questions, recite Shakespeare at length, know history at a level few would today and go into all kinds of details on scientific matters. The kids all sounded like they were between say 6 and 12 years old. I'd like to know what the program was so that I could shoot it off to my kids to let them know what the 'expectations and standards' were years ago.....
Ping me if you figure it out.
