Radio quiz shows.

Wikipedia, March 28, 2008: (game show: television program in which members of the public or celebrities, sometimes as part of a team, play a game, which is likely to involve answering quiz questions for points or prizes; sometimes contestants compete against other players or another team whilst other shows involve contestants striving alone for a good outcome or high score; often reward players with prizes such as cash, or holidays and goods and services provided by the show's sponsors; early television game shows descended from similar programs on broadcast radio)
Museum of Broadcast Communications WWW site, March 28, 2008: quiz and game shows page (prior to the quiz show scandals in 1958 no differentiation existed between quiz shows and game shows; all shows that deal with competitions between individuals or groups, and based primarily on the display of factual knowledge will be considered quiz shows; shows dealing with human knowledge (knowledge of people or of individuals) or that are based primarily on gambling or on physical performances fall in the category of game shows; The gong show or Double dare are not considered quiz shows since they rely primarily or completely on physical talents; Family feud and The newlywed game rely entirely on knowledge of people or of individuals and would therefore also be considered game shows; Jeopardy!, with its focus on academic, factual knowledge, is clearly a quiz show)
