Coming Up Tomorrow On The Dickenbock Report: X-Rays
On January 18, 1896, a professor in North Carolina, HL Smith, displayed the x-ray machine for the first time. He didn't invent it. He didn't discover x-rays. He didn't have much to do at all with the science. But he showed it to the world for the first time.
We will therefore use this opportunity to talk about & play musical reports about x-rays on The Dickenbock Report. Which is on a station called XRAY FM. Is the news allowed to be this meta?
Listen tomorrow, Sunday, January 18, from noon to 1pm on XRAY FM - 91.1+107.1fm in Portland, xray dot fm everywhere.
Fun fact: Dick Dickenbock continually proposes that XRAY change its slogan to "We can see right through you." He is continually told to sit down & shut up.
