In 1975, Sheikh Khalifa bin Hamad Al Thani sat in a Doha majlis with a British radio engineer and sketched the kernel of what would become Al Jazeera. Long before the satellite network shook the Arab world, Qatar was a tiny peninsular state with one crackling radio station—Radio Qatar—broadcasting from a single building near the Corniche. In this episode, Lucas and Luna trace the forgotten prehistory of Qatar's media revolution: the 1970s push for a national broadcaster, the role of the British engineer Norman F. S. Johnson, the fight for signal range across the Gulf, and the quiet 1979 decree that created the Qatar Broadcasting Service. Along the way, they uncover how a Saudi border jammer, a broken transmitter in Dukhan, and a young Qatari poet named Abdulaziz al-Mahmoud all helped shape a small sheikhdom's audacious plan to be heard beyond its shores. A story of ambition, technical grit, and the first seeds of soft power—before the satellite dish. #Qatar #AlJazeera #QatarBroadcastingService #RadioQatar #SheikhKhalifa #1970s #MediaHistory #NormanJohnson #Dukhan #Doha #Majlis #SoftPower #MiddleEast #Broadcasting #AbdulazizalMahmoud #History #FexingoHistory #Podcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
