30's and 40's fan here. Why is there so much admiration for those years? Especially in the media. [I'd Rather Get To Know You Than Small Talk]
I like the style and cars.

It was a pivotal part of history, and a time when what we think of as the media started to put itself on the national stage.
The 1920s brought us local radio. And then the high powered clear AM radio channels cropped up in the late 20s and 30s, and together with the national networks which formed at about the same time were able to broadcast from New York to California. Also talking movies came in the late 20s and proliferated in the 30s. The first MLB night game was in 1935, night time college football started in the early 1930s.
