Listening to Old Messages on an AT&T 1310 Answering Machine
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- Usually when I get a new answering machine I hook it up to my Wide Array of Answering Machines and let the people calling in listen to the messages while deleting them all. But Devon donated this one to the cause and suggested that I listen to the messages so I'm making you all listen with me so I don't get too bored doing this by myself. There are no prank calls in this video, Get over it you bunch of crybabies.
To call into PLA's answering machine hacking line, call 505-608-6123 or 845-470-0336. Once you're in the answering machine menu, this machine will be #4.

I can't believe Carol couldn't remember events from 32 years ago! What the heck, Carol.
Good one! Ahahahahaha!
That's my entire lifetime so far
I know right. I could see if it was 33 years ago, but it was only 32 years, she should have remembered.
I'm surprised Carol wasn't weirded out
@@KG-Love I would have. I still remember the song my catechism class sung 34 years ago during our Holy First Communion.
Haha you probably made that lady's day, you rascal, I like her.
Carol is cool.
@@deluge71 unless you have a customer complaint. As a supervisor she doesn't get a lot done and usually pisses the custies off more.
The guy (Dave?) Thats her supervisor, with the deep voice, (3 employees deep), and is not much better. Chad, at the bottom of the totem pole, is actually the most "competent"...
In 1985 I couldn't wait for 2015 and all the wonderful things that would be in the future.
Well, here I am - future boy - and all I got was this lousy nostalgia 😑
congratulations... you played yourself. ;) (1990's kid here .. i feel the pain)
@@Hotshots2890 Yeah I was always told not to wish my life away when I was a kid. Always wanting to be older. So looking forward to when I would be finished school and then be able to do whatever I wanted without anyone being able to tell me what do to!
Buckle up because things are only going to get worse. We thought we won the Cold War. In reality Commies had already won the culture war.
@@namenameson9065 Indeed my fellow buckaroo. 🙂
We certainly seem to have skewed off the original timeline at some point.
Lol boomer 🤮
😂 that was kinda cool she still has the number.1989 good times 🌵
I know thats so crazy but imagine some one calling u in 30+years and playing a old u wat a time travel
🌵🌵🌵🌵
0:26 That message is probably the message that plays when someone calls the answering machine.
Trowbridge and Associates is a business development corporation.
1:50 Marie the owner probably tried to call the number and the lady left a message saying which homes were sold.
2:39 Tori the security guard for a business corporation cancelled the red alert. Marie is probably Tori's mother.
3:35 Mr Hanson was probably talking to Marie about some sort of information.
3:49 I'm assuming Carol was trying to get in touch with Murray which is Marie's husband. Murray could be a manager for Trowbridge and Associates. Carol could've been trying to start a business.
9:30 Tobi said Marie's long lost nephew. Marie and Murray are old like 60's age in the 80s then. They're probably deceased. Tobi and them were planning on a river trip.
10:19 the business corporation could've needed some remodeling in a room or something. Plywood is used for building or remodeling. A guy from another wood related company left a message. Astoria is a seaside town In Oregon. About 1 hour and 48 minutes from Portland Oregon.
10:44 I believe someone in that family got in a car wreck or got injured. Said her condition is bad. From Marie's family. The guy was maybe in a hospital leaving a message for Marie and Murray.
11:05 Joan is Marie's cousin friend or something.
11:26 Tori called Marie, her mother. If Tori said "What are you up to this weekend?" Tori is in her early 20s. Bryant went out to see grandfather this morning. Bryant is Tori's brother. I'm assuming. Idk.
14:35 Marie called Mr Cain about something.
15:02 The 80's technology wasn't all good. The person was trying to send a voicemail when there was a bad thunderstorm. Portland Oregon has bad weather.
16:36 I'm assuming it was a man calling Murray about life. I think the man said: Hey Murray, "Your things don't even report anything about you." "About that dial tone now, and it rang about four or five times there." If the man hanged up the phone slowly, he is an old man. Old people are physically slow.
17:08 Tori called her mom Marie. Tori said she's at the park down by the water/lake. Shes there from 1:30 to 5:30. Tori must of had friends or co-working friends hanging out. If she was at a barn, it was her friends.
17:41 the family goes on vacation a lot and the lady leaving a message saying hope you enjoyed your trip.
17:59 Marie, it's patty powell and Dottie. Pattie is Marie's sister. Pattie said daddy is going to the office and she's going shopping. Dottie is sisters husband. I looked up the at&t answering machine, I found a year that it came out. The answering machine you used came out in 1986. The first date on it was 1987 from the first message. An old couple used this answering machine. They probably died and their house was sold. The answering machine was gaven to goodwill and their other stuff I'm assuming. I guessed all the people who they were on the answering machine. 6/7/21 11:36 PM.
Pretty funny, although listening to this makes me a feel a bit old.
This would be a great opening for some kind of mystery or horror movie.
3:49 and 9:30 are my favorite messages because of how loud and clear the decades old messages sounds.
That was wholesome when he said I love you too lol
Carol sounds like such a fun lady! Good on her for being a good sport!
Carol is a cool cat....
Lol
The most riveting content on the internet
Holy shit! She had the same number since 89?? I must have had 30 numbers since the 80s.
My parents have had the same number since 1966 (possibly earlier) and so do several of their neighbours. That era is coming to an end I guess.
@@paulmaul2186 my father refuses to get rid of the home phone and the number he has had for 30+ years now
@@paulmaul2186 same. Except in the nineties an extra digit was added.
Not everyone had a phone at home either. If not, they'd have an arrangement where you could call their neighbors and they'd go get them for you.
@@paulmaul2186 That seems impossible. I think it was the late 80s when our area code changed or was added, but not the numbers. I remember it taking me a while to get used to it. Funny how I remember our old number where I grew up. We had a recorder that took really tiny tapes. I also remember some hobo somehow hacking into it because my mother didn't know anything about technology. I ended up becoming the only person in my town to even own a computer, and they were 2 grans back then. It was during the age of the Tandy Sensation system. I had some different one called SKV. They must not have been in business long because I never could find any information on them since. Wish I still had it. It had Win 3.1. :) I was king shit of my town with the only computer and finally had enough money to get dialup :)
@@My-Say My parents number has always been the same. The only change was at some point you had to dial the area code even for local dialing, whereas before it was only necessary for long distance calls.
The weird tones between the outgoing and incoming messages are probably put on the tape by the machine to mark the end of the outgoing and beginning of the incoming messages.
Tory said she was at the farm and “watering stock” as in getting the water tanks full for the animals on the farm to drink from.
Sounds like simple data bits slowed down. A sequence of 1s and 0s. The machine listens to these bits as it's fast forwarding to the "record" part of the tape.
This is also done so the sounds in a human voice isn't accidently interpreted as the control signal.
I must say, Been subbed to this channel for a long time and this has to be some serious quality content! lol calling the lady from years ago haha
unsolved mysteries should do a show about this
The guy who casually addressed himself as "your long lost nephew" was probably funny as fuck
Man thank you I could listen all night and all day tomorrow

16:20 the reason the tape is distorted on side 2 is likely because someone had the tape ribbon behind the metal capstan shaft (just visible in the right hand circle at the front of the tape) instead of in front of it. So the tape will be driven at high and irregular speed by the take up spool. Happens if the tape's a bit slack when you put it in the deck.
I love history and prank calls so this was interesting.
🧐
You know Brad is a grandpa when has multiple answering machines
14:26 he loves you!
I think he knew it would be weird if he didn't say it back 😄
Yeah it would've been weird for sure
20:01 i remember having some of those memorex tapes 😂
Looks like a Marv Hansen in the Portland area passed away in 2011. RIP Marv.
Carol was a cool lady and this is an intresting experiment x
I liked the Carol call ! Lol.
That was cool. A piece of history. Carol was a sweet lady
Cool. Might be worth picking up more of these if you can find em.
This is such a wholesome video
this was amzing in a back to the future kind of way... shout out to devon for finding this ... and you of course for uploading it..here is my two cents on the warped message couldbeness 'you know your things not even recording after the dial tone it rang about four or five times there.'
Love you too have a good one.. 😂😂😂 that guy was chill af 😂😂😂😂
You couldve mentioned to Carol that your alter ego is a woman named Carol...
Yes a rather bizarre synchronicity.
That's awesome you got to talk to Carol. I thought that was really cool. I called one of your numbers and a lady answered so I guess you don't have them hooked up anymore?
This is really good, I hope you can do more stuff like this in the future.
Like a blast from the past
I love your conscientiousness in covering up the remote code.
Vintage answering machine.
SNES Jurassic Park Elevator Music at the end lol
I think I know the remote access code, but only because I have a similar machine that I used in the early 2000's
Found some cassete tapes at a thrift store. Guy recorded him talking to the wife about divorce. Felt sad
She wanted everything. And she was the cheater from what i heard. Poor guy
Life never changes, only the time period.
This video was so wholesome, exactly what I needed tonight
Good work
He's saying something "...You're thing is already..." something on the first part of the warped message. (Also as soon you decode that message a ghost comes out and kills you because it's been warped by like, the supernatural, you know? Could be...)
Can you have that lady on during your best of show at episode 700
Carol could of been weirded out, but she was a good person.
This was actually pretty interesting
That looks like one happy Cactus in the pencil holder!
I used to call up these machines in the middle of the night and kept forwarding and rewinding this pet allow OGM and ICM medsages
such nostalgia
can you do a 2021 studio tour
I used to work in a repair shop we fixed a lot of these ans. Machines. These machines became obsolete when the new digital machines came out.
That was morse code. You do not want to know what it says..
Carol sounds super cool
You're right about the tape running fast while recording. It seems as though there was a problem where the pinch roller didn't engage correctly with the tape, which is also why the speed was so inconsistent.
Interesting that 2 of the numbers were still active.
You should have had Carol call Carol
I'm glad he called Carol as "normal Brad", because he did really make her day and I think that was a really wholesome interaction for them both.
@@eternalextrapolations while I agree, she soiled the carol name
@@Gravitics Maybe he can do a collaboration with her in the future to play Carol from another universe?
Brad. The phone master.
I think part of the reason messages start in progress is because people didn't wait for the tape to wind to a blank spot and beep before they started talking. My friend has a microcassette answering machine that only contains one tape and it takes a while for it to get to a clean part of the tape. I prefer machines that have two tapes (I also prefer full size tapes as I find external machines are easier to find in the event I need to play them elsewhere).
Costs less than “tiiiin” dollars!
I liked that Microcassette Bellsouth Answering machine at the end of the video that was displayed. I have one just like it.
Hey Brad I recognize that creepy message. It’s BTK or that Zodiac guy, no sure but I’m sure it’s one of them.. hope that helps…
I, and the nation, approve.
Wonderful 👏
this is absolutely incredible brad
Why can’t Carol leave me a voicemail message on my phone with her sultry and wispy voice. I long for her vocal touch in my ticklish ear canal.
This guy ASMRs
Let me just add that I also had many answering machines in my day that took cassettes like this however they had two cassettes they had one cassette that was an endless loop that used to have the outgoing message and then they used to have a secondary cassette that used to take the incoming message and then when that became outdated they became digital and they didn't use any cassettes at all and then before you knew it everything had voicemail on the line the end of answering machines
They started with corporate enterprises (only people that could afford the extremely large price tag) on reel to reel, then they made domestic reel to reels (severely cheapened so Joe Homeowner could afford one) then they moved to standard cassette, then microcassette, then digital, and now it's cell phone voicemails.
@@MrWolfSnack
I was in the retail business for over 35 years. I've sold many, what are considered today as "Vintage Electronics." Including Dictating equipment, Calculators from Texas Instruments that took a 9-volt battery had an LED display, Answering equipment. I was also involved in purchasing. Later on teaching myself how to repair, Or modify for various customers. Example, LCD televisions for nursing homes. Audio equipment that we ordered from China. It did not pay to send back defectives. I taught myself how to repair these items, as opposed to them collecting dust. Very familiar with Reel to Reel, I owned one. Micro and Mini cassettes.
Nice! @@Mr.Robert1
Even if you didn't know you only got to call him about 100 times to potentially get it 011, 022, 033, 044, 055, 066, 077, 088, 099, 100, 122, 133, etc if you don't recognize the pattern yet you're probably not smart enough to dial a phone
The odd sounds you are hearing from some portions of the tape are because the capstan lost its grip on the tape and the speed under the head changed.
I've dealt with this before. Spin the raw feed into Sound Forge 9.0 and play with the speed....since SF 9.0 is pretty old, playing with the speed will also play with the pitch, which you actually want for this.
541 calling 503
Man no one leaves messages anymore lol
You got to remember you calling people from over 30 years ago anything can happen in 30 years number one the simplest thing is that the number could be changed it was amazing that you got through to that woman that she had the number for that long is really something I've changed my number a million times second of all people could have moved to a completely different number different area and third of all in 30 years some people could be dead I was thinking about that I was waiting for you to call somebody and just waiting for somebody to say oh yeah they passed away they're not with us anymore that was what I was waiting to hear
Also home numbers become obsolete and then those become cell phone numbers. So if Betty Rosebush was 555-0162 in 1984 on a landline, in all that time now 555-0162 belongs to Mark Starbucks and its a Iphone.

It is a bit like that!
Carroll called again know the b side
Tee Hee, that was fun.
This was so cool wat a time travel
🌵🌵
🌵🌵🌵🌵

Hope everyones day was "super"
Hahhahhaaa! This is amazing! 🤣
Carol is great
Carol that is her booty call
great vid
That was cool!
Hey Carol!
Shotgunned a beer during this video
this was really cute
👍👍🌵🌵
🌵🌵🌵🌵
It’s 1989
Are you deliberately trying to creep out the people you're calling?
I set youtube speed to 2x and it still sounds weird and slow
Rang 4 or 5x
Wonder how many of them still alive
This is cute
Can you find Marie and Tori on FB?
I did find a few of them on Facebook, but nothing had their phone numbers on it. I used some people searching sites too. One of the old men was 97 years old today and I had a number for him, but nobody would answer.
You slipped up and let the last name go through at 4:52, then blanked it at all other points. Not like it's a very discerning name, just thought i'd point it out.
No reason to censor any of these messages, people use their real names on Facebook, Google, everywhere now, in addition to that most of these people have been dead for at least 15-20 years.
Damn dude if you make recordings like this in the future don’t bleep peoples names out you’re ruining the history behind this stuff. Don’t be too concerned about privacy man these people are probably dead
Wow, I’m early
