Teletextr Podcast

Teletextr Podcastr 02, November 2015 – Teletext Art Fest, Teletext porn

It’s the Teletextr Podcast: The World at Your Fingertips! Carl and Harry are back to discuss teletext at art galleries, physical and analogue, in 2015 for our Teletext Art Special. There’s also some juicy discussion on teletext porno, such as it is, teletext’s ongoing fight against the evil lizards and the world’s first teletext song… perhaps.

With pages recovered from VHS by Jason Robertson, plus some frames from Teletext40.com. Sorry these aren’t directly related to the audio this time round, but it would have taken me two weeks to edit… 😀
