If you are interested in learning about the history of the Radio; going as far back as learning about the waves that make Radio possible then James is the best person to listen too.   He makes learning about the actual beginning of wireless telegraphy; and building the very first radio into a story ....  he brings to life the men and the women whom strive to bring the beginning of sharing of information beyond the newspaper; or telegraph.   He uses background music and sounds that is highly fitting for the time period.
