weird, from the link greenyoda provided (thanks by the way).

publication date: "July 31, 2013"

and at the footer: "This piece is based on an edited transcript of Lucy Kellaway’s History of Office Life, produced by Russell Finch, of Somethin’ Else, for Radio 4. Episode nine, Whatever Happened to the Paperless Office?, is broadcast at 13:45 BST on 1 August"

So is the radio show to be listen to tomorrow at quarter to two BST? O_O

Unlike a lot of music radio stations, which are just a man sitting in a room playing songs off a computer and chattering between them, Radio 4 has a lot of well-researched, pre-recorded content that would be impossible to broadcast live.

It's called synergy: BBC website promotes BBC radio programme, BBC radio programme promotes BBC tv programme, which in turn promotes BBC website and so on...

The recording already exists, and someone decided to push out the transcript. The date is the date the recording is to be played on the radio.

Quite a few Radio 4 shows are pre-recorded segments, usually available beforehand as a podcast download and afterwards on iPlayer.

This is part of a series, you can (at least in the UK) listen to previous episodes online:

Lucy Kellaway's series is great, and well worth listening to.

I think the radio content is available worldwide. (Something weird about UK subjects not needing to pay licence fee to listen to radio?)
