35: The Detector Van Is a Lie

from Pants in the Boot Hosted by The Incomparable

The television license is mythical to those of us in the United States, but it’s prosaic part of having high-quality programming in the UK. We talk about the kinds of over-the-air, satellite, streaming, and cable TV available to us, our feelings on Rupert Murdoch, and did you know Glenn’s dad sold cable door to door in 1979? Host Glenn Fleishman with Antony Johnston, Dan Moren, Jean MacDonald, Jenny Phin, and Sarah Hendrica Bickerton.
