I am a big fan of early synthesizer music, so this episode of the Wire was right up my alley. As the previous commenter notes, "Good Vibrations" is by no means exhaustive (I would have loved to have heard more about synthesizer makers other than Moog), but it is a great introduction to a fascinating subject.

Good Introduction to Synthesizers
This episode tells the history behind the synthesizers and its pioneers. It doesn't go very deep, but it is a great starting point into this world.
