After having conquered the Atlantic, we now set our sights on getting radio signals across the country towards the Pacific. In this episode, we review "Le Reséau", a story about Canada's first microwave relay network which enabled Canadians to have wireless signals traverse the country, enabling us to see hockey players disappoint us nationally as opposed to locally. This system would eventually lead to an explosion in Canadian media and is likely the reason for why this podcast exists today.
