Next we’ll have a History channel show called “Hippie Tech.” I coulnd’t believe they actually had a “Spiderman Tech” show.

"Part One: True Hackers -- 1. The Tech Model Railroad Club (TMRC) is a club at MIT that built sophisticated railroad and trains models. The members were among the first hackers ..."

It was that era

Could be "hippie tech."
