Description:

The Goldbergs: Episode 1495. Date: c. 1943. Cast: Gertrude Berg (Molly Goldberg); James R. Waters (Jake Goldberg); Roslyn Silber (Rosalie Goldberg); Alfred Ryder (Sammy Goldberg); Menasha Skulnik (Uncle David).

Announcer introduction: "Rosie is too young to be very subtle... when she started out to create a dramatic situation in her house... well, the situation got out of her hands. You see the whole affair is based on Rosie's quite proper suspicion that her sister-in-law Grace is in some way connected with neighbor George. Rosie's brother overseas and still not heard from... Rosie feels it's her duty, her right, her career almost to expose Grace and George. So Rosie believing that it's love that binds Grace and George decided to play up to George and thereby make Grace jealous. She went to the movies with him... now she's asked him to take her to a dance. Unfortunately, however Rosie has fallen right in with Grace and George's scheme. And the real sufferers seem to be Jake and Molly. Listen..."

Announcer close: "As in all such things it's the innocent bystander who's being hurt. It's Molly and Jake who are worried and excited... but Rosie feels justified because she knows that Grace and George have to be exposed for what they are... whatever they are."

A hallmark of the golden age of radio, The Goldbergs (1929-1946) was one of the earliest entertainment programs to authentically explore Jewish life in America. Learn more at cinema.ucla.edu.
