Show Notes
Between Metropolis and Star Wars lies a 50 year wasteland of terrible movie robots. Today sees the opening of the fourteenth door of our robot advent calendar. And what's inside? It's Ada Loveless, pioneering genius of computer programming and without whom we might well be robot-less.
WARNING! The S**t-bomb is sometimes uttered but nothing more.
