Project Moonbase: PMB049 The Robots Are Coming (The Tornadoes, Bruce Haack, Dana Countryman, Louis and Bebe Barron, Piero Umiliani, Barry Gray, Nite Jewel)

PMB049: The Robots Are Coming As you know, dear listener, we've been covering some of the big topics of the day in our recent podcasts. Well there are few core topics we've rather neglected which is why this week on the show we turn our long overdue attentions in the direction of those marvellous metallic moto-men (and future overlords), the robots!

Yes, every track on the show this week has a robotic theme and we also hear from some of our favourite androids including Electro, Marvin and our very own Dalek Vicar.
