=====Popular media===== The 1930s saw rising popularity for radio, with the vast majority of Western households having access to the medium by the end of the decade. Programming included soap operas, music, and sport. Educational broadcasts were frequently available. The airwaves also provided a source of news and, particularly for the era's autocratic regimes, an outlet for political propaganda.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Vaughan |first=David |date=9 October 2008 |title=How the power of radio helped the Nazis to seize Europe |url=http://www.theguardian.com/culture/2008/oct/09/radio.hitler.bbc.czechoslovakia |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210812154321/https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2008/oct/09/radio.hitler.bbc.czechoslovakia |archive-date=12 August 2021 |access-date=27 May 2021 |website=The Guardian |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Konkel |first=Lindsey |date=19 April 2018 |title=Life for the Average Family During the Great Depression |url=https://www.history.com/news/life-for-the-average-family-during-the-great-depression |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210629065110/https://www.history.com/news/life-for-the-average-family-during-the-great-depression |archive-date=29 June 2021 |access-date=27 May 2021 |website=HISTORY |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Buck |first=George |date=2006 |title=The First Wave: The Beginnings of Radio in Canadian Distance Education |url=https://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/EJ807814.pdf |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210511134659/https://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/EJ807814.pdf |archive-date=11 May 2021 |access-date=27 May 2021}}</ref><ref name="Companion">{{Cite book |last=Dennis |first=Peter |title=The Oxford Companion to Australian Military History |publisher=Oxford University Press Australia & New Zealand |year=2008 |isbn=978-0-19-551784-2 |edition=Second |location=Melbourne |pages=558β559 |chapter=Volunteer Defence Corps |display-authors=etal}}</ref>
