The Machine
The Machine tells the true stories behind the computers and the people who built the digital world. Each episode, host Nirob takes one machine, one inventor, or one breakthrough — Babbage's unbuilt engine, Ada Lovelace's first program, the room-sized ENIAC, the transistor, the internet, the smartphone, artificial intelligence — and rebuilds it: the inventors and programmers who made it, the struggle to make it work, the moment it switched on, and the world it created. From punched cards to microprocessors, from the first programmable computer to the World Wide Web, from video games to machines that learn, The Machine is about the astonishing, accelerating story of computing — how machines were built, how they were programmed, and why the digital revolution is one of the greatest transformations in human history. Meticulously researched, honest about what is documented and what is legend. Clean and suitable for all ages. A new story every week
