This episode examines a few innovations like the washing machine, the personal computer, and to the electric bicycle\u2014though you\u2019ll have to go to Episode 18-Wax Cylinders to the World Wide Web for extensive chat about recording technologies\u2026 and also Episode 40-Irish Tunes in the Key of C-19.
