In the 1980s, The Famous Com­put­er Café launched over the radio. With a focus on home com­put­ers, news, and cul­ture, the pro­gram had a fas­ci­nat­ing ros­ter of guests, includ­ing Tim­o­thy Leary, Don­ny Osmond, Bill Gates. Although it was assumed that all the record­ings of the show were lost; recent­ly 53 episodes were found and dig­i­tized. Com­put­er his­to­ri­an and archivist Kay Savetz spear­head­ed this project and joins us on Radio Sur­vivor, along­side one of the cre­ators and hosts of The Famous Com­put­er Café, Ellen Fields.
