Description

 



This week on That Don’t Sound Right, Peter and Cecil dive into an ingenious local solution straight out of Vermont: an engineer turning old payphones into Wi-Fi hubs for the community. These repurposed phones don’t just spark nostalgia—they provide free internet access for students, ensure emergency connectivity, and revive the simple joy of staying connected.


Along the way, the hosts reminisce about rotary dials, phone trees, and the quirks of call-waiting, reflecting on how bringing back straightforward, shared technology can strengthen both conversations and communities.
