Springbok Radio was the first commercial radio station of South Africa. It closed down in 1985, but not before broadcasting memorable content that stays until today with several generations of South Africans.
From The Adventure of Jet Jungle, a programme for children, to the police drama Squad Cars and many other dramas, soap operas, game shows, documentaries and comedy shows, brought to the public through the voices of legendary radio personalities and presenters, this radio station's programming is part of South African history.
In 2008, Springbok Radio Preservation Society Archive together with SABC Radio Archives started working together to keep this legacy alive by restoring and preserving these old broadcasts. The result was the launch of Springbook Radio Revisited in that same year, an online radio station where the restored programmes are streamed.

In the 1930s, thousands of American farmers fled their drought-ridden and Depression-ravaged homelands of Oklahoma and Arkansas for California, where they hoped to find a better life. What they did find was exploitation and more misery, as memorably chronicled by John Steinbeck in his novel The Grapes of Wrath. Two young academics recorded the stories and music of these all-American refugees, and it is their first-hand accounts of events that can be heard in this program. Producer Jolyon Jenkins

I have not done electronic books due to difficulty finding and loading them.
I like the idea of electronic books because they could be downloaded onto tablets, right? I could not find 'Electronic Book group post in The Little Red Schoolhouse group', so I'm posting here.
