About this listen
In this Twilight Zone classic, the machines aren’t just breaking—they’re out to get you. We dive into the 1960 episode “A Thing About Machines” and uncover its eerie dystopian core, born from the gadget-obsessed, automation-fearing world of the late 1950s. From Cold War paranoia to the rise of planned obsolescence, this was the era when shiny new tech came with a shadow of distrust. Was this story just sci-fi fun—or a warning we still haven’t heeded?
