I listened to this on WAMU a week ago last Sunday. All you computer
types should find it very interesting. From 1950. >https://wamu.org/story/25/06/30/summer-of-sci-fi-a-logic-named-joe/
Here are 3 more sci-fi. The 3rd is about robots. The 2nd is the one
above. Not sure if I've heard these yet. >https://wamu.org/story/25/07/01/summer-of-sci-fi-with-folded-hands/
I try to listen "live" on Sunday's between 7 and 11 ET, from WAMU, 88.5
on the radio if you live in DC or as close as Baltimore, or wamu.org ,
but now they are all on demand too, though not until a few days after
the broadcast. 50's episodes of Gunsmoke, Dragnet, Johnny Dollar, less >often Burns and Allen, Our Miss Brooks, Suspense, Escape, My Little
Margie, Fred Allen, Penny Singleton, Jack Benny, X Minus One, The CBS
Radio Mystery Theatre, Life of Riley, Fibber McGee and Molly, the Lone >Ranger, Lux Radio Theatre hosted by Cecil B. DeMille, Encore Theatre
“The Life Of Louis Pasteur”, Franklin D Roosevelt’s Address to the
Nation (Original air date July 4, 1941, “Yankee Doodle Dandy” James
Cagney stars as George M. Cohan, America’s Town Meeting of the Air -
“Can We Depend on Youth to Follow the American Way?”. and many other
radio serials and dramas from the 50's. Three hours every week.
Sometimes news, including various things such as Edward R. Murrow and >broadcasts on D-Day both by the Allies and iirc the Germans. (The
Germans said the Allies were trying to come through and everyone living
in the affected areas should evacuate until the Germans beat the Allies
and the people could come back. I've heard something like that in some
other situation. )
