"Time Machine: 1951."

The year I was born, so I'm especially interested:


Watch Time Machine: 1951 on PBS. See more from KBDI.

Via David Kopel at Volokh Conspiracy, who explains:

Every year the political roundtable show Colorado Inside Out does a time machine episode.... Our topics for the episode were the firing of Gen. Douglas MacArthur, the Korean War, duck and cover training, and the new federal government center in Denver. Characters were the famous singer and actress Ethel Merman, who had recently moved to Denver (played by Westword publisher Patty Calhoun), newspaperman Al Nakula (played by former Rocky Mountain News journalist Kevin Flynn), sociology professor Lois Waddell (played by Dani Newsum), and southern Colorado newspaper editor Cecil Koplowitz (played by me, evoking my father’s first journalism job, in Walsenberg).
