Robots!
Gadget Guru is a short weekly radio show on World Radio Switzerland that I do with Tony Johnston.
Here's the show from January 27th, 2015:

Isaac Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics:
- A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
- A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
- A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
