I grew up in the 1970’s and the 80’s. I did played 8-track tapes, records, and tape cassettes. I even had Atari 2600 during the early 80’s. Even used a VCR during the 1980’s through the early 2000’s. One VCR that my parents had was hard for them to program to record a show they wanted to watch. I figured it out for them no problem. I had Sony Walkmans during the 80’s and during the 90’s. I had a boom box with sub woofer speakers in the late 80’s. My mother bought it for me when someone returned it at this one store she was at. She bought it for me. It was the coolest thing to have. It had 2 tape cassette players and of course a radio. The speaker was the biggest thing on it. It was easy to transported. I was surprised when my parents still have it in their house in the early 2000’s. It did still worked back then. My 1st car had a tape cassette player with a radio inside. I started to get into CD’s in the early 90’s. I still missed listening to tape cassettes. I even did used a rotary phone when I was a kid. Even watching MTV in the early 80’s.
My god I met my wife at a roller skating rink. We jammed on the 8 track version of Peter Frampton comes alive in my 1970 Dodge Duster. Bought a pack of Marlboro smokes for 35 cents. And drank PBR beer. Pabst. blue Ribbon is still a favorite.
Skatemor ?
Michaelmyers 4176 the Duster was a Plymouth NOT a Dodge!.
Alot of young people today have no idea how to use a rotary phone.😂
To be fair, they don't need to. When I was a kid we were taught how to dial 999 (the UK emergency number) in the dark.
My 16 and 10 year olds don't understand landline phones at all. Both saw them in hotel rooms as younger kids. It blew their minds. My 6 year old nephew doesn't understand any screen that can't be touched. Crazy😅
@@TCHorwood-xq7mw Before 911 (in the US), people had to remember emergency phone numbers, although most telephone books had the numbers that were easy to find, usually on the cover or in the first few pages.
@@DUCKDONKEY I'm just the opposite. I don't understand how to use smartphones. I did have a bulky cell phone long ago, but it used buttons to make calls, just like a cordless phone.
It's strange to see young ADULTS not knowing how to use them. It really does make me feel old.
I had a Trapper Keeper. I used it though the last of highschool and the first few years of college. It was a big help for me. Love from Marysville California
I still have an original 1980s blue trapper keeper. Complete with a full compliment of the trapper keeper folders. It’s in such a condition. It looks like I just bought it at the store. I have actually still use this even in my work life. Everything is digital now. But prior to that, I used it in my work life to keep papers and all, separate.. I still love my trapper keeper. And for me is a huge part of my past and my teenage years. I had a red white, a yellow with white stripe and a blue with white stripe, which is just like the one that I own today.they were and are still some of the best notebooks ever made for school.
I remember all this. I will say that as a video game I loved Leisure Suit Larry. The first games were really great but when they went to mouse driven I quit them. I preferred the typing.
I’ve seen things like this for the “VCR” I’ve yet to see anything on the BETA player.
On my Navy ship in the early 1980s, we Electronic Techs ran the CCTV system, to provide TV service to the mess deck and officers wardroom. We had three Beta Max machines, as well as a reel-to-reel projector that fed into the CCTV system.
My Dad also started with Beta Max, and preferred it to VHS. He had trouble getting them repaired after VHS took over.
Later in my state IT career, we had a Wang laser disc storage system for our Teacher Certification records . The huge 12" laser discs (which were in plastic cartridges) were later replaced by smaller disc cartridges with greater capacity. They were used in a big robot-equipped box housing dozens of them, and could be programatically selected, as employees accessed the records.
When I worked at the local TV station, I found that they used Beta to record the downloads from the network to air here locally due to the superior quality. I was happy to see them in the early 90's still somewhere.
I had the Square Shooter 2 camera, with the "instant" film cartridges. Quality was sketchy, usually with weird pink and blue bands appearing on the photos.
Atari computers were actually quite good, better in many ways than the Apple and Commodore machines. I had two Ataris - 800XL and a 65XE - and a Commodore C64. Far better machines than the clunky Apple of that time. But both companies made some bad business decisions.
In the section about moon boots, you didn't show a single moon boot! Moon boots were a type of winter and snow boot.
Believe it or not, but there were "Moon Boots" or "Moon Shoes" back in the 1950s. I had pair of them. Unlike the ones shown in the video, they were completely metal (except for the straps) that you'd slip your shoes in. They were also adjustable, like roller skates, to fit different size shoes. Each "boot" had a pair of heavy springs underneath with a metal plate on the bottom. They ran out of favor because kids sometimes got hurt by bouncing around and falling, sometimes breaking a leg or an arm. I never tried to bounce very high with them, but they certainly felt weird and springy.
Hmmm....the Atari VCS (or 2600) was not the first video game console. It wasn't the first to adopt cartridges either. It came packaged with two stick controllers, two dial controllers, and Combat. The very first was the Channel F (Fun). It utilized cartridges that were taken from 8-track tapes.
Addendum- I know this because I am a huge gamer and collector. We (fiancee and I) have every console from the 1984 test release of the Atari 7800 through the Xbox Series X and PS5. We also have a full sized 1990's arcade in our living room complete with stand-up cabs. Coincidentally, I didn't start gaming until 1986 with the Nes and Master System at 6 years old).
I have a 2600 with all the games and extra controllers and all. We got it the first holiday it was out.

That's freaking awesome, man! I love it!
I know I put a lot of comments here but brings back so many memories. At seven or eight years old, I actually had a leisure suit lol it was a reversible leader suit for God sake lol it was a beige/tan on one side and when you reversed, it was a, maroon color on the other. Very 70s for sure lol
Yeah. Im old. I remember every thing on this Video but the last on. The Childrens Books.
I thought this video would at least reference the Nintendo Game Boy. There's an image of a Game Boy in the thumbnail.
I don’t remember “Moon Boots” at all.
