Kajtek - a teenager's nightmare at the end of the communist era
Today's historical episode will be a bit unusual. Instead of talking about an old telephone, it'll be about a music player. And not just any old one, either: the first and last portable cassette player ever made in Poland. Why couldn't Kajtek from the Kasprzak Radio Works in Warsaw compete with models from the West or Asia, not to mention Japanese Sony Walkmans? Why was it both a miracle and a nightmare for Polish teenagers in the late 1980s and the entire communist era? You'll learn all about it in the film, and at the end, you'll see a cassette-related curiosity!
