  • Resumen

  • The Max Headroom Interruption (1987)


    As the day wound down on Sunday, November 22nd, 1987, the greater Chicago area was in a fabulous mood.


    At exactly 9:14pm, something very strange and kind of surreal interrupted WGN sports anchor Dan Roan as he described the Bears’ victory over the Lions.


    In this episode, we dive head first into the crazy-ass case of the Max Headroom broadcast signal intrusion that shocked Chicago, Illinois in 1987.


    Was this the work of a tech-savvy savant prankster or was there a more sinister motive behind it?


    And how in the world did they manage to hijack the greater Chicago area airwaves not once, but twice, in a single evening?


    Listen to this episode to see if you have your own theories as to how this "crime of the airwaves" was pulled off...and why.
