Every Sunday afternoon in 1947 an educational radio program aired called California Caravan. It dramatized major events in state history. The story of the Comstock Lode featured Ralph Moody as "Old Pancake." The California Parent-Teacher Association endorsed the series as one of radio's most entertaining educational programs.

From 1944 to 1954 Ralph Moody was in the cast of 43 Roy Rogers Show radio programs.

Ralph Moody's twenty years of circle stock, meaning a touring troupe of actors and actors, came to a sudden end in 1939. Four twisters wrecked two of his tents and three of his five tents. He moved from the acting circuit to full-time radio work and moved to WLW-Radio in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA.

Ralph Moody signed a 1946 contract to do radio character roles every Thursday night on the Bob Burns program.
