Haven't seen it in a while, the great broadcast of 1938 , or was it 39? Anyway,it had W.C. Fields, in it , and shouldn't be hard to find the correct one.
,The picture has some stage props for broadcasting from a ship, and an early video picture transfer machine,pictured in use, for a bit. The kind that used a rotating disk, but I don't know how accurate the stage machines actually are, I have only read about early TV. There is also a gyrocopter used momentarily.

TCM runs it. Perhaps they stream it. If not they will run it eventually.

We have been debating adding it, but so far negative. Ten bucks here, ten, there...
For now our sources include Netflix (mostly DVD's), Amazon Prime and Youtube.
Most of the time we use that last one to watch old Soviet movies. Yeah, I know... all that propaganda stuff, and yet, there is WEALTH of incredibly good films, not available anywhere else. People managed to fly under the radars. Many world class actors, capable of conveying range of emotions with just the tiniest shades of facial expressions.

He does a radio show so you've got that tech. He has a 16" vinyl cutter. Nice turntable. The director goes out of his way to show electronics.
Oh it's a neat story, Rains kills it.
