MINDWEBS - Michael Hanson's official tape archive.
Welcome to Michael Hanson’s personal archive of his creation MINDWEBS! 188 half-hour shows which presented 216 short stories. Originally conceived and produced by Michael Hanson and Steve Gordon, this series aired on WERN/WHA Public Radio in Madison, Wisconsin from the mid 70’s through the mid 90’s with the first episode "Carcinoma Angels" being recorded on March 3rd 1975. MINDWEBS returned with new episodes in 2018 on WMSE in Milwaukee, Wisconsin as Michael publicly released his surviving copies of the show here. The series ended in 2021 after the death of Michael Hanson. Original air dates of the episodes could not be verified with only a handful of air dates currently known. The dates commonly attributed to episodes are not correct. The shows are presented in the order written on Michael’s back up tapes and are believed to be in a chronological order based on available station documentation and known air dates. This is the home of the complete series in it’s highest quality from source material for broadcast. It is made public HERE by the show creator as this will always remain free. Please respect his creative vision and do not sell or appropriate for profit but instead help share the show and link to this web page so that others can also get their lossless copies of the show directly from Michael Hanson which was his wish and the sole intent of this page which was a culmination of a dream and is his personal gift to you. As these are Michael’s master digital show copies, ANYONE who claims to have a different sourced or better sounding collection of this show is LYING. This is the original and DEFINITIVE SOURCE of the MINDWEBS series by the creator of the show for anyone who wants it.
"It is my hope and intention that this project will bring free enjoyment of MINDWEBS to listeners new and old as long as sound exists. My sincere thanks to Darkman for making this possible. And my thanks to the myriad fans who've help make this entire enterprise viable."
--Yours truly, Michael Hanson
