  • Childhood Nostalgia: What was normal as a kid that is totally Bizarre Now
    Sep 23 2024

    Remember the days when answering the phone felt like a thrilling mystery, and our homes were tethered by six-foot phone cords? Join us as we reminisce about these and other unique childhood experiences that, in today's world, seem almost surreal. We take you on a nostalgic trip from navigating without GPS to the advent of MapQuest and the era when the Yellow Pages was a household staple. We'll share stories about how outdoor dogs roamed freely and kids biked unsupervised between towns, painting a vivid picture of how much our daily lives have transformed.

    Do you recall a time when smoking regulations were lax enough to allow cigarettes in hospital lobbies and on airplanes? Our conversation dives into these dramatic cultural shifts, including the nearly extinct relic of the payphone, which once necessitated everyone carrying a quarter for emergencies. We also explore the responsibilities carried by 13-year-old babysitters, the bygone era of milk deliveries, and the impractical winter clothing for girls, showing how societal expectations and norms have evolved over time. These reflections provide a fascinating look at how our perceptions of safety and convenience have changed.

    Finally, we wrap up with heartwarming memories of relaxed car safety standards—think kids sitting on the floor or riding in the back of station wagons without a second thought. We also touch on the cumbersome process of photography before the digital age, making us appreciate how far we've come. This episode isn't just about remembering the past; it's about cherishing these moments and sharing them with friends to spark delightful conversations and camaraderie. Join us, reflect on these nostalgic stories, and let’s celebrate how these experiences have shaped us.
