47: Box of Old Tech

When we visited the Senkenberg History Museum, they gave us a box full of old devices that they no longer needed. So we decided to do an unboxing session live on the podcast. To make it more entertaining, we first guess what the device is, before reading the label. It's a perfect opportunity for us to learn more about 21st century technology and about the devices you are using in your everyday life, like the Walkman, the Telegraph and the Jetpack. Some of them still even work! Also, Simon just got back from Atlantis, and he tells us all about it. Also also, this episode ended up being way longer than usual, so we hope that you put enough battery in your Walkman!
