HE014 Alan Turing: The Enigma
Manage episode 188768506 series 1008450
Alan Turing is one of the principle reasons you're able to read this sentence on a computer right now. He is also a major reason the sentence is in English instead of German or Japanese. He's a fascinating character with an fascinating life cut way too short. So when our friend and guest host, Siobhan Beeman, suggested we hash out the Turing biography (Alan Turing: The Enigma, Andrew Hodges, 1983) and its filmed adaptation (The Imitation Game, dir. Morten Tyldum, 2014), we agreed to the idea eagerly. Four months and seven hundred dense pages later, a bit of that eagerness faded. In the end, that small amount of grind was ultimately the key to a surprisingly salty and laughter filled episode that we're quite proud of.
