Step into the Wild World of Telephones! 🛠️📞
In this episode of Chaos Lever, we’re dialing up a fascinating exploration of telephony with special guest Sarah Autumn! Sarah, a volunteer engineer at the Connections Museum in Seattle, takes us on a journey through the evolution of telephone systems, from the quirky mechanical marvels of the early 20th century to the legacy technology that still shapes our communication today. Spoiler: it’s as much magic as it is science.

📌 Highlights from this week’s episode include:

- A behind-the-scenes look at the Connections Museum and its rare treasures.
- The history of telephone exchanges, old-school "operators," and why area codes exist.
- The surprising origins of familiar sounds like dial tones and busy signals.
- Stories of mechanical ingenuity, including a phone system powered by steel balls (!).

Whether you're a tech enthusiast or someone just curious about how we got from crank phones to iPhones, this episode is packed with history, humor, and a touch of chaos.
