Vox Pop was a popular radio program that featured interviews, quizzes, and human interest stories. Often called Sidewalk Interviews or Voice of the People, the show was established in Houston in 1932 when Parks Johnson and Jerry Belcher used portable microphones to interview people on the street about the presidential election. The format expanded with the duo later moving to New York and the show gaining co-hosts such as Wally Butterworth, Neil O'Malley, and Warren Hull. The conversations between interviewers and participants were often natural and engaging, and the show covered a wide range of topics, asking passersby humorous questions and interviewing people from all walks of life.</p><p>The show ran from 1932 to the late 1940s and was broadcast on various radio networks, including the Blue Network, NBC, CBS, and ABC. Over the course of the show, Johnson and his co-hosts visited 41 states and six foreign countries. The show later found its way to other formats, such as the 1938 Milton Bradley game Vox Pop, where players pulled chips from a bag to answer questions. While the original Vox Pop has ended, today there is an unrelated live call-in radio show with the same name on WAMC, Northeast Public Radio. This extensive collection of often rare recordings showcases the charm and spontaneity of the playful interviews that took place across the US and abroad from the 1930s to the 1940s.
