Interview with Laine Nooney and Adam Conover about early computers and the Apple II
This video blew me away. Not because of a deep dive into the Apple II from any technical standpoint, but instead because it instead takes a broader look from a cultural perspective of the history around the late 70's and early 80's computer industry, and puts it in terms of the software and people who used them. It's a long listen (about an hour,) but includes gems such as:
