Archie Comics Turn 70! Answering Machines, and Mogen-David wine - a podcast by Smitty, Mike, and The Galaxy Gang

On this edition of Galaxy Moonbeam Night Site we remember the Archie comic book series. Yes, Archie is 70 years old! Mike B looks back to the beginnings of Archie and his adventures with Betty, Veronica, and Jughead. From the very early days to the present, we look back at the many comics, books, TV shows, and hit music that the Archies have inspired. The Galaxy Guys wrap up the segment by recalling some other favorite comics of the past. Next, we look at the history of Telephone Answering Machines. Mike Z guides us as we look at the technical and cultural side of these machines. Machines that would record incoming calls were around a long time ago, but the phone company had a lot to say as to why they were not available early on. We also look at the cultural side of having an answering machine. Now we could screen calls and decide which, if any calls we would answer or even return. Finally Smitty has the obituary segment for us in which we note the passing of a number of notable stars and personalities. Our Retro-Commercial is for Mogen David Wine. Join Mike B, Smitty, George, and Mike Z on another edition of Galaxy Moonbeam Night Sight!
