No footage from the show remains, since methods to record live television such as kinescopes were not invented until 1947. However, an audio recording of one episode survives.

1-8
broadcasts over WNBT-TV in NY in 1946-47) include a 1947 episode featuring a ski report and ski luncheon discussions by Beard. This is followed by prolonged[citation needed] live commercials from Borden including Elsie the Cow as show sponsor, while Beard recounts his dream about Elsie as part of the show.
