Speaker 1 (00:00):
Please keep steer in the din with dangerous day. Well,
if you're thirty year older, you could probably hear the
classic screeching dial up tone from the Internet, transported back
to a time filled with the smashing pumpkins and Blockbuster video. Now,
if you're younger than that, all of this probably means
nothing to you. Millennials, gen xers, boomers online listing nostalgic
(00:21):
sounds from their childhood. Younger generations will never hear. Some
of the best ones include a floppy disk being read.
Remember that sound? How about the cassette rewinding faster and
faster and faster until it thumps. The squeaky sound of
aim chat door opening as a friend logs in, or
a host asking smoking or non smoking, Or the phone
recording you'd get if you'd like to make a call,
(00:43):
Please hang up and try again. If you need help,
hang up and dial your operator. Don't hear that anymore?
Do you that you chunk of a manual credit card machine?
Remember that thunk? How about the squeak of the crank
of the car windows that are not automatic, staticky sound
of those great computer speakers when a call was coming in,
clapping of chalk border racers, static discharge, fizzle when you
(01:04):
turned off an old tube TV. Yeah, I remember that
Casey Caseum on the radio. Well, this person doesn't listen
to the Fox because we have Casey Kasem every Sunday,
so we play the Casey case eighties replays and I
still like listening to them. The sound of a quarter
dropping into the coin return of a payphone or vending machine,
(01:25):
dot matrix printers, the sound of kit on night writer. Well,
if you watch maybe some of the old myTV or
me TV channels, you might be able to hear that.
Real old schooler said the bell being physically shaken at
a school to signified the beginning and the end of
lesson periods. He said, Wow, we found Laura Ingallson's social
media account. And how about the internet? At the kmart
(01:47):
telling your parents that you were looking for them, and
then the worst part hearing your dad in the background
going I don't know that kid deeper in the lot
of people graduating in the last couple of weeks, in
a poll ask people would you go back to high
school and do it all over again? Most Americans said yes.
Fifty five percent said they'd go back and do it
all over again, but they do things differently. Forty percent
(02:08):
said no way once was enough, and five percent weren't sure.
The poll looked at the most common high school experience
as we shared. Number one makes sense, but you might
not guess it. They pulled the top fifty different high
school experiences that we experienced throughout our high school career.
Number one is having a crush on somebody in high school.
Eighty seven percent of people said it happened, oh, multiple times.
(02:30):
How about a specific friend or click. Eighty three percent
said yes. Took a class you loved, seventy nine percent
took a class you hated same amount. Went to at
least one high school football game. Sixty eight percent said yes,
Sixty three percent went to at least one high school dance.
Sixty eight percent kissed somebody. We won't talk about my
teachers anyway, lied to your parents. Sixty seven percent took
(02:52):
these SATs or acts at sixty six percent, went on
a date at sixty five percent had boyfriend or girlfriend
at sixty four people didn't ask the rate of overall
the high school experience, most people didn't hate it. Forty
eight percent said they liked or loved it. Twenty eight
percent said, twelve percent dislike, and eight percent said they
hated the whole experience. One of the interesting things, sixty
(03:14):
four percent of drivers got their license in high school.
Depends on how old you are. Eighty two percent of
boomers did, compared to just forty two percent of people
under the age of thirty. One of the things I
asked is did you get a lifelong friend in high school?
And I actually got a few of them. Just the
weird thing is nowadays, every time I get a hold
of them, the next time I try to get a

hold of them again, I realized they for some reason
changed their number to it again for another episode of
