| The Man in the Moon | | 1938-11-29 | A kiddy-adventure series first heard in 1938 for twenty-six consecutive days, starting after Thanksgiving and ending Christmas Eve. The shows were re-syndicated each year for some time thereafter. The dates listed are possibly correct for 1938, but would vary on subsequent years. Six-year-old Jonathan follows a moonbeam back to the moon, where along with his teddy-bear named Gus (actually a Koala bear), he helps rescue Santa Claus from kidnappers. Written in clever rhyming verse, no cast credits are heard (one of the voices sounds similar to Pinto Colvig, who was heard as one of the lead voices in the 1939 animated feature, "Gulliver's Travels" also later as Disney's character "Goofy"). Several other connections to Walt Disney are heard throughout the 26 programs. The episode titles are subject to correction. In this episode: two elves lure Gus to the moon, with Jonathan as well. |

Listen to the character of "Little Bo Peep," who sounds like Katharine Hepburn. |
| The Valley of the Three Dwarfs | | 1938-12-02 | Approaching the home of "The Three Dwarfs," the story borrows elements of Disney's 1933 animated short, "The Three Little Pigs" and his 1937 feature, "Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs."

| Good Queen Alice | | 1938-12-17 | Borrowing heavily from Lewis Carroll (and the Disney movie), Jonathan meets "The Mad Hatter," "The Jabberwocky Bird" and good Queen Alice herself (she must have dethroned the "Queen of Hearts" in a palace coup).
