About this listen
In 1984, screens took center stage around the world. This episode explores the launch of the Apple Macintosh, the creation of Tetris in the Soviet Union, and the Los Angeles Olympic Games, shaped by the Soviet boycott and television spectacle. It also covers the Bhopal industrial disaster, the assassination of Indira Gandhi, the famine in Ethiopia, Ronald Reagan’s reelection, and instability in Soviet leadership. Between technology, sports, politics, cinema, music, and human catastrophes, 1984 revealed a decade becoming increasingly visual, commercial, and global.
