The SW ident at 6:28 just reminds me of the sound effect for the windmill in the 1970's UK stop-frame animation Trumpton. Enjoying hearing these new episodes. Listened to the original series many times, so many years ago on the PhoneTrips site.

Boy, we effectively lived parallel lives. The only difference is that between my obsession with shortwave (which began when I was 9) and phones, I got into CB radio for a while.

I always love listening to Fred and Felix's little investigation. They may be boneheads, but that was a top notch sorta early example of social engineering. Which as someone with an interest in cybersecurity, is always interesting to see.
This really belongs on the Ep 11 souncloud page, but I dont have and don't want an account with them.

I tried to look it up but found absolutely nothing.
