Generation Gap or Generational Gap? Episode: 107

Do you know how to label an envelope correctly if you were to send something through "snail mail?" After a funny incident, we realized that there are some things the younger generation won't ever know about. In this episode, we talk about some things that have become obsolete.

Episode Transcript

(00:00):
So as the recording of this podcast. A big thing that happened during this
past week was that Apple event wherethey introduce new products like a new watch.
They introduce new features on the iPhone, which I'm super excited about.
But the big news, the thingthat made headlines is that new is it

(00:20):
called Apple Vision. Yeah, Iknow Vision is in there, but it's
there VR headset set, but Iheard it's just it's more than like what's
out right now with like the metawith that headset and watching it super impressive,

(00:40):
right, Yeah, I mean youcan use it where for video games,
you can use it watching movies.It's interactive without a controller, so
just by body movements and hand gesturesyou can control it. So the technology
is definitely there. They said.The technology on this one is out of
this world. Where there was onething I was watching where you set it

(01:02):
up by scanning your eyes. Soonce it scans your eyes and it knows
the person using it the way thecursor or not even the cursor, but
it highlights what you want to clickon is your your eyes. Just look
at it and it knows like ittargets what you're looking at specifically, so
you could like if you want touse your phone, you just look at

(01:23):
that icon. Just looking at ithighlights it and you click by putting your
finger and thumb together. It's crazy. Now. I have a few thoughts,
but I guess the number one bigthing was they announced the price,
which is almost four grands. Youknow, I'm saying four grand because yeah,
exactly, there's a video that's goingviral right now when they say and

(01:47):
I like how it's not a humanperson saying it. It was like a
recording presentation. So it's like andthe price is and the crowd just goes,
oh my god, really have thatvideo? Yeah, there's a video
of like after groaning. Yeah,and that would have been me too,
like four grand. Yeah. Butthen there's a peason to me that thinks

(02:07):
people are gonna buy this ship.Yeah, there's gonna there's definitely gonna be
some people buying it, but asfar as just like a regular average consumer,
probably not right. Yeah, therich folks are gonna buy it.
But my second thought to this headset, I see it more of a toy.
Yeah, like a game, right, Like you're not gonna wear this

(02:29):
out in public? No, Andit's almost like they kind of suggested that's
what you would do, like youwould just wear it around because it does.
It does more than games. Likeeverything is on there, whatever's on
your phone, whatever's on your computeris on there. Whatever you're you know,
you're what is it like the Alexaall that stuff, everything's on there.
I heard that this sound is impeccable, like, but again, to

(02:53):
me, it's not. It's aluxury item. Yeah. Well also I
don't okay, let's just say yeah, it's it's gonna be used more for
in your home. I don't wantto wear something the I'm trying to relax
when I get home from work.Um, I'm not trying to watch a
whole movie with that thing on.Yeah. They did an example of on

(03:15):
a plane. That sounds fun,like, you know, because it has
like a feature where because it's it'sthat those those goggles where you could still
see the real life and it's screenswithin that, but there's a feature where
that all disappears and all you seeis like a big movie theater screen.

(03:35):
And um, I'm all about comfortand this thing could be comfortable, but
it's big, but it's still somethingon your head. So to me,
just like other toys, people aregoing to get tired of it and not
want to use it. And I'mbasing this off um, my sister's family.

(03:57):
You know, my nephews have thelist, which we've had fun with
it. I have the Oculus too. I hardly use it. I've hardly
seen my nephews use it. Yeah, after the first time we used it,
I've never wanted to use it again. Um. But that's how I
see this name four grand for somethingthat you're gonna use once in a while,
or you're gonna use it a bunchthe first time you get it,

(04:19):
Yeah, and you're gonna get tiredof it. So I feel the same
way in the price, just thatalone, I don't think it's gonna last
right now in the world we livein. I feel like it's not practical.
No, definitely not definitely not forthat price. Now, if they
came out with their home, theirown like VR set sort of like or
the Oculus, and it was justfor games and you could do things like

(04:41):
that on it, yeah that's cool. But they're trying to push it as
like an every day use thing thatyou can use it for multiple things.
And to your point, I justdon't think people are gonna want to do
that, strap it on, towatch the movie, to play my apps,
to play a game, to walkoutside. No, it's just it's
it's too expensive and it's too bigto be in every day use type of
thing. It's crazy house. Sometimeswe don't plan these, uh you know,

(05:04):
pre topics for the episodes, butit kind of has something to do
with what we're about to talk about, kind of kind of okay, yeah,
we'll get into it. Yeah,let's go. This could give me
fire podcasts up. I'm Jizo.That is John Magic, and we are

(05:25):
back. Welcome to this episode ofGeneration What is the generation gap or generational
gap? Which which makes sense toyou? I feel like generational gap rolls
off the tongue a little bit better. That's weird because I was gonna say
generation gap time tongue better clearly notall right, then you win that one.

(05:46):
I might have to google it andsee what the first thing it comes
up with. Yeah, are youlooking at it up right now? Look
it up right now, and thenthat's gonna be the title. Obviously,
we record this first before we comeup with the titles, so you're already
seeing what we chose. I mean, generation gap, our generational gap did
pop up? Right now, Okay, let's see if anything generation gap.

(06:09):
Man, I don't know why generationgap sounds right to me, but if
if, I mean they did popboth pop up, but which But you
saw generational gap first, because I'llgo with that. Oh, here we
go, I did which which wins? Well, I tapped in generation gap
or generational gap? In generation gappopped up first. So maybe you're right,

(06:30):
Uh, generation gap. I thinkit's generation gap. Whatever, we'll
figure it out later. All right, Well, a lot of our topics
obviously come from real life shit thathappens in our lives and we're like,
oh my god, this is somethingto talk about. This is a good
topic. So what happened just recently? And uh, I don't don't.

(06:50):
I'm not gonna name any names.Obviously he's gonna know who it is.
Um, So it's not as it'snot a dis So it's my assistant.
I mean, if you're listening tothis episode, this is not a disc
because we understand the age gap,the generational gap. And I just said
I did that on purpose, bythe way, And so he's my assistant

(07:13):
and I needed him to do sometask and one of the task I have
him do as prize fulfillment, whereeither people come to our radio station to
pick up prizes, or we emailthem their prizes if the tickets are electronic,
or sometimes we do have to sendtickets out to different cities. Physics
physical and that's all we have isphysical tickets. So what do we have

(07:35):
to do. We have to mailit out sail snail mail, which sometimes
we do. So I told him, Hey, these are winners that we
need to send these to Bakersfield.So, uh, we're going to mail
them out. Here's the envelopes,here are the tickets, here are the
people's address, and I'm like,on top, just put our address,

(07:56):
you know, our station address.Well, when I came back, he
leaves her the day and I cameback to kind of organize the mail,
and I see what he left.I realized that he wrote on that envelope
totally wrong, totally random, random, where where he wrote the information of

(08:16):
who to send it to? Ourinfo and it just clicked. Kids these
days are not being taught how towrite on an envelope, write on an
envelope to send a letter, becausewho does that anymore? So where did
he have the writing? It washe almost used the whole envelope as like
a paper. Okay, from across, like all across. So obviously most

(08:41):
people out there know that in themiddle of the envelope is where you put
the who you're sending it, sendingit, and then the top left corner
is the is your address in it? But even even further it's you know,
typically it's the name, and thenthe second line is the street,
the street, and then about thecity and zip code. The third line
is exactly is that? So hejust wrote like, wow, okay,

(09:09):
yeah, no, dis he's Ithink twenty two years old. I believe,
wow. And it made me thinkthere's things that kids don't really know
today because you don't really sense stuffexactly. That's why there's no judgment because
kids today don't when is the lastwhen is you know, when have they
had to send a letter? Yeah? Yeah? And do they even teach

(09:31):
this, teach this thing anymore inschool, which I don't think they do.
I remember in school. I thinkit might have been elementary, yeah,
because we used to do like,you know, you'd have pen pals
or you would send a letter toI don't know, Santa Claus or yeah,
whatever, you would so they taughtus how to send and the structure
of it, and so it's justso natural. But yeah, you're right.

(09:54):
I guess, like if they don'tteach it anymore, you just don't
know. So God is thinking,and God is thinking about the generation gap.
I did that on purpose too,of what are some things that kids
don't know today? Or did it? Did I find weird how someone doesn't
know that because it's so natural tous. I guess, yeah, for
sure. And we came up witha list of a few things that,

(10:16):
uh, just came top of mindthat, yeah, that kids might not
even know today. And I'll evenstart with this. I saw a TikTok
challenge where parents were showing their kidsa rotary phone, and obviously the kids
know it's a phone. So thechallenge I see on TikTok is they tell
their kids, how do you dialmy number? They're all trying to press

(10:39):
it. Man, they do notunderstand the whole where you put your finger
in and then you spin it andthen you pick the next number. They
were so confused. Wow. Andso that's an example of kind of like
what we want to talk about.Did you ever use one of those phones
growing up. Did really I did. My parents had it when I was

(11:01):
a young, young kid. Idon't ever remember I remember using one,
but just maybe sparsely, maybe likemy grandma had it or something. But
for the most part, like,I don't think my parents ever had one.
Remember maybe they did because I knewhow to use one. But yeah,
those are funny, But I'm imaginingwhen you were using it, you

(11:22):
were like, oh cool. Iremember these things during when I was a
child. And when I say child, maybe when I was five or six.
That was a norm to us,like this is how this is what
phones look like. Got you.Yeah, these were probably being phased out
by the time I. Yeah,well they were getting phased out too as
I got a little older, likeseven or eight, than the big,

(11:43):
the touch you know those phones cameout, and then the cordless was the
game changer. The next one,Yeah, that was a game changer.
M yeah, so phone that man, I mean we could even go to
cell phones. How cell phones weredifferent back then? So big? Um,
Yeah, you can only dial andthat was it, no text messaging
or nothing. Um, what kindof what was your first cell phone?

(12:05):
My first was I think it wasa Nokia wasn't that was like feel like
that was classic for everybody to gettheir first phone. Snake. Oh yeah,
yeah, it wasn't my first phone. But I just want to say,
my dad had those brick cell phonesstuff, those brick yeah, yeah,
yeah, that's like eighties. Yea, yeah, I remember my dad
had one of them, had thatlong assi antenna. But even before that,

(12:28):
pagers. That is true, Evenbefore that cell phones were pagers.
And I even actually had a pagerin middle school. Actually had no business
having a patriot because honestly, Iwas like one of the only kids in
school that had a pager. Itwas a motor rolla so I had that
perfect small rectangle that you looked atthe screen on the top. Yep,

(12:52):
that's the one I had. Andit was only numbers. People can page
you a number, and basically that'swhat it was used for. It's when
you get paid, you call backthat number. Yeah. And side note
of the pager thing, the pagerculture. Correct me if I'm wrong.
It was in the It was forselling drugs, wasn't it. It's kind

(13:15):
of like where Yeah, it's kindof like where that A lot of people
used it. Yeah, like theypage like yo, I need, yeah,
you know, meet me at theplace or whatever. But the reason
why I bring that up is beforeI had my pager, I had a
friend a classmate, and I'm I'mthinking this was my freshman year or junior
year in high school, and I'venever seen anyone really have a pager before,

(13:39):
and it hasn't blown up yet publicly. But he got Paige and I
was like, Yo, what isthat? And he was like, it's
a pager? Like what are youuse it for? And I remember,
I don't know why this is acore memory for me, but he just
laughed at me like it's it's almostlike he dismissed me, like it's okay,
like he sunned you. Yeah,He's be like and it kid.

(14:01):
Later on I found out it isbecause he was selling drugs. Oh damn.
Yeah, that makes sense because that'swhat it was known for. So
for me being naive and asking him, yo, why do you have that?
Any him? A lot of peoplelike that worked certain jobs had him,
like I remember my dad had one. Maybe he was like he had
like a lot of encole stuff todo. But I mean, the concept

(14:22):
was weird because essentially, just anotification is essentially what it is, right,
it is because someone's paging you tobe like, ay call me.
And we didn't have cell phones,so you'd either have to find a phone,
or maybe if you were at home, you could just call from home.
A pay phone would be the oneif you're out in the streets.
But yeah, I had one.I didn't really need it. I just
wanted it to be cool. Wellthat goes to what I was gonna say

(14:45):
next. Then it became a socialthing. Yeah, where I remember phone
shops started selling pagers by the millionsbecause it became a thing. You had
to have one to be cool.Yeah. Then they really started getting cool
with like different colors. You couldswitch out the plates because it all started
with Joe's black. Yeah, justto black with the top screen. Then
they had like the like the landscapeview screen. But when you started yours,

(15:09):
would it just numbers? Yeah,it was just it was like that
motor roller where it just had thetwo the two numbers or the two buttons.
Yeah, and then you can eitherdo you switch up the thing for
vibrates or you can switch it upto offer tone. Oh my gosh.
And it was just that, Yeah, it was. It was stupid.
But where it became fun is peoplewere creative and you can kind of leave
messages on the pager using numbers numbersbecause letters were not a thing. You

(15:33):
could not put letters on the pager. So what did we do as kids.
We turned numbers into letters. AndI'm not talking about code like one
one means a too be No,we made letters numbers to letters. For
example, an M, the letterM would be one seven seven Yeah,
okay, can you can you guysimagine it one seven to seven and Anne

(15:56):
would be one seven yeah, ohobviously would be zero. Yeah. There's
the easier ones, like an eightis a B eight that was always good,
or a seven could be an Lat three is an E. Yeah,
and you would always get to knowyour friend's personalities because like you said,
some people would use seven as LA, but no, some would use
that as a T only T andL would just be one. But then

(16:18):
but that also could be an eye. So basically we were sending text messages
before that was even a thing.Essentially. One story I'll leave it with
this is I was at the parkplaying with my friends. I think we're
playing basketball, and then I geta beep and the beep. Was just
this a bunch of numbers, justa bunch of numbers just kept coming in,

(16:41):
kept coming in, And it wasa full on paragraph of my friend
basically needing a ride. It wasan emergency picked me up from this church,
like named the church, and Iknew it. And the funny thing
is I knew exactly what that pagesaid really not even having a call.
I read, no, you don'tneed to call, like and then um,
yeah, I was on my wayto go, like this person up

(17:03):
just because of that page that Iunderstood with numbers. Yeah, that's crazy.
Oh man pages? All right,what's something else that kids won't know?
Um, cassette tapes? Yeah,I mean before that, I remember
my dad having a tracks which wasessentially like a bigger tape, right yeah,
And to me that was like whoa, this is cool, Like that

(17:26):
wasn't my eight tracks, weren't mygeneration, but I knew how to use
it from how because of my parents. But yeah, cassette tapes were more
my thing. Essentially looked like asmaller VHS and there was two sides,
two sides sideay, side B.You just flip it around. You can
rewind it with your hand. Ifyou needed to, but yeah, it
was just tape essentially ringed around likea cassette. Yeah, and that's how

(17:52):
I got my music. Yeah,did you ever used to like record on
tapes? I get blank tapes andrecord like off the radio. That was
so old school. I remember growingup listening to like B ninety five and
it like you can kind of tellthat your song was gonna come on and
you just had to it record,you know what I'm saying, hopefully the
DJ talking about the fuck it up? Then after that, something that kids

(18:14):
might not know about today's CDs.Yeah, that's a weird one because I
feel like, I mean, youcan technically still buy CDs and they're still
set in stores here and there.But it is weird to me when I
see someone that is this. Seemslike they would be the h to know
what a CD is and they don't, and it's just like, how do
you not know? Like, yeah, CDs are getting outdated, but there's

(18:36):
one they're still technically around, andtwo they they're not outdated that fast.
I mean, we were still givingout CDs here when I when I got
to this job, and I don'tknow, I don't know if some people
are just not cultured or some peopledon't don't do a lot of research into
the past. But I remember seeingthings that I didn't necessarily grow up with,

(18:56):
but I knew what they were,like old technology things like like I
wasn't in the A track era,but I knew what an A track was
growing up. But I don't know, maybe just because I had parents that
were like pretty cultured, so theytaught me a lot of like the things
that they grew up with. SoI was never like, what, like
a lot of things weren't really thatlike weird to me. Oh, I
mean at some point they were,obviously, But I feel like I grew

(19:18):
up pretty good knowing a lot ofabout technology. But I'm also a fan
of history, so yeah, maybethat's part of it. I was just
gonna say, for a kid todo that today, they would have to
be somewhat interested. Yeah. Yeah, I was always interested in like old
shit, like even to this day, like watching you know those shows where
they find like old ship, it'slike interesting to me. I just did
a TikTok video on my TikTok aboutmusicians. You know, it's common for

(19:44):
our industry for musicians to want tohear their music. Yeah. And I
was talking about this on my TikTokthat I'm still getting handed CDs and like
I said, bro, I don'teven own a CD player anymore, Like,
how am I gonna play this?Yeah? I was like at the
Hollywood Boulevard like a few months ago, and there's like dudes out there that
still try to sling their CDs.Like, Bro, I couldn't even play
this if I wanted to. Idon't even have a CD player. Yeah.

(20:07):
I mean even on my side,on the radio side, where companies
try to, you know, dosome giveaways with contests. Yeah, and
there's this one company that keeps emailingme like, hey, can we send
you the CDs for giveaways? AndI think he's getting tired of me ignoring
his email because I always ignore itbecause we don't need it. Yeah,
who's gonna get that? Yeah?So man, just like the kids today,

(20:30):
I want to forget about CUM.There's a thing that kids won't know
today is floppy disc. Yeah.I use floppy disc growing up, but
I started those started to phase outa little bit when CDs became the new
thing to save stuff on the floppydisc was weird, man, that was
like a weird device. It wasa square plastic and then on the inside

(20:55):
it had like I think, likea film looking thing that would save it
on there. Right. Yeah.Did you ever have like those floppy disks
cases where you just put all yourfloppy disks and you write on like what
it was in there? Yes,and this was the soft floppy. Remember
there's a soft one, and thenthey came out with the hard Yeah yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah, Iwas using like the softer ones.
Uh. Well, I bring thatup because on one of our programs where

(21:18):
we save prize winners, the savebutton is a picture of a floppy disk.
Yeah, and again with my assistantwho is in his early early twenties,
and I'm like, hey, sohe just clicked save by clicking the
floppy disk and he was so good. You was like where like and I'm
all, you know, the pictureof the floppy disc. The floppy disk,
though, is still kind of asave icon on a lot of programs.

(21:41):
So yeah, so they're still keepingthat around. And now it's funny
because kids are probably just gonna belike, oh, that's the save icon,
But like, no, back inthe days, it really was something
physical. Let me ask you ifyou could think of like a new floppy
I'm sorry, a new save icon. What would be today's save icon,
just like an S so the square. Yeah, I'll go with that.
Let's stick with this whole computer thing. Because another thing that kids won't know

(22:06):
because we have computers on our handsnow with our phones was before our era,
before you know, our parents,they used to use maps, the
actual paper maps. Debt would unfoldthis big map and it's so crazy.
I remember, like distinctively, goingon vacation with my dad and he would

(22:27):
have the map open, like mymom would have it open, and to
be like looking over and you justyou see the line, like hundreds of
lines with like numbers, and likethey would just follow that like you would.
You would, only you would almostneed a magnifying glasses now you would
to see how they wouldn't show likelandmarks or anything. Like you wouldn't be

(22:48):
like, oh, this is wherethe McDonald's at, Like no, you
just see street names and you justhave to figure it out from there.
There's not even addresses on there alot of the times. And then the
one that you would really have todo is pull over to the gas station
and maybe asking one of the localswhere someone was at. But yeah,
for the most part, you're justfollowing this map. Sometimes you would have
map you would have to get amarker and you know, you open the
map and kind of mark where you'regonna go with a highlighter. Yeah,

(23:11):
so you kind of see like thiswhere you're going, but it was more
of a you had to visually kindof look and okay, when we someone
pay attention, when we see thestreet, the map tells us to you
know, to get off. Sothen on I believe our era of when
we started driving, Google Maps wasavailable to map quests or map Oh.
Yes, basically it was on thecomputer. You went to that map quest

(23:37):
site. Yeah, type where you'reyou're starting, and you type where you're
gonna go, and boom, ittells you. So essentially what you see
like on Google Maps or Apple Maps, but on like a physical form on
piece of paper. Well it wason the computer. Then you had to
print it out, so you wouldget like the layouts of the map and
then you would get the like theplay by player that's not what it's called.
But then you would print both andthen you have your piece of paper

(24:00):
and you would just follow the directionson the paper and I used So that's
that was my driving era when Iwas like seventeen eighteen nineteen. Yeah,
it was yeah, mav quests,Google maps and actually, yeah, I
think mav quest is what I useown. Yeah, and that's how I
got to my friend's house that livedin different cities. Yeah. Now,
I mean we just have it onour phones or like devices, smart devices,

(24:22):
and it just tells us. Youwere telling me a story. This
is more your story, tell methe story about checks. H Yeah,
checks. I mean I still writea check here and there for some of
bills that I have that it's likefucking annoying, but it's just some people
still to this day don't know howto ride a check and that one kind

(24:45):
of baffles me. And writing acheck was actually something I distinctively remember this
again, learning in sixth grade.I actually don't even know why I learned
so soon, but I remember ourteacher was like, you're gonna have to
learn how to ride a check onthese days, and he like drew out
like a blank check. I waslike, oh, this is where your
name goes, this is like wherethe amount goes. And it made sense
to me and I've wrote checks growingup. Obviously I don't do it so

(25:07):
much anymore, but I still dohave a checkbook for those times that I
still technically have to write a check. And it's just to me, it's
weird that people don't know how towrite a check. And again, like
I feel like checks are dated,but not that. I mean, we
still get a check, right,some people get directed positive, but I
don't know. You see it inmovies. You would just think that people
would know, But I guess peoplestill don't know how to write a check.

(25:29):
That's that baffles me. Yeah,obviously we were in the eras where
we were writing a lot of checks. But no, I don't own a
checkbook anymore. Yeah, you slideyour card, you scan your phone.
Yeah. The checkbook story I haveis my mom would be this is where
I get it from. By theway, my little OCD tendencies. My

(25:49):
mom, she was impeccable with organizingher check because if you remember people that
remember how to use checks, itwould come in that Booklet get a balance
sheet. Yes, yeah, mymom would balance that too. My mom
was impeccable with that, and Iwouldn't. I wouldn't because during the times

(26:10):
I would use checks to pay mybills, my car pain, yeah,
this and that, and I wouldjust pay it and that would be it.
But my mom would yell at me, like you, well, how
much I can balance this? Yeahit was mine was never balanced. You
had like the credit and debit side. It's crazy, man, But hers
was like every time she wrote acheck right away, balanced it right away.

(26:32):
Um. But maybe that's where Iget it from now. But yeah,
I never balanced it. Um,I haven't used the check in years.
So when was the last time youwrote a check? Or when?
When do you still need to?I still need to on some bills here
and there because some places like don'ttake that whether they don't do like take
out of my direct deposit or Ican't like they don't have like an app

(26:52):
saw stuff. So the business issort of out of date. Yeah,
basically it's not me. It's justlike what I have to deal with.
So that's anning. So I stillhave checks, I just don't use them
that often. But I don't know, it's it's weird. It's like why
am I still doing this? LikeI can't you kind of just get direct,
like directly take it out of myaccount. But now they're still doing
it the old way. So wait. My question to that is, obviously

(27:15):
you probably still have a few checksin your check book, but once you
run out, are you going tothe bank to get a new one?
I ordered them and they just sentthem to me. Okay, yeah,
I don't have to like go tothe bank because I was going to ask,
how did they react to you?Like what you want to? Still
want to check it? Open upthe vault? Yeah, I mean that's
all I had them. Is thereanything else in your head that kids might

(27:37):
not? Maybe? I don't know, just because today, oddly enough,
today's National VCR Day. I justsaw that the VCR that was kind of
like an era of having rewinding thembe kind rewind. So are you when
you started using that? Do youdo you just remember using VHS? Because
I'm a little older than you.Oh, so there's something before VHS?

(28:00):
Okay, what which one was this? Beta Max? Oh? Okay,
maybe this is something I don't know. So you know how VHS obviously you'll
know what it looks like with thetwo circles. It's a big looks like
tape. Yeah. Beta Max wasjust one circle and it looked it was
a little smaller. It was asquare almost almost a little thicker than the
square, but it was a littlea chunky guy, but it only had

(28:22):
one circle like real. Yeah,well that's all they showed. I think
there's another real hidden Okay on theblack side. It wasn't the same design,
but Beta max is what what Istarted with that my parents used.
Yeah, so, and then itwent to VHS after that. Okay,
yeah, VHS was an era VCRs. I remember my dad had like a

(28:45):
nice VHS collection, and my dadwas big on movies. And then when
DVDs came around, he held onfor a long time and I was like,
Dad, you got to like thisis the new. And then once
he decided to do DVDs, thenDVDs started facing out so like late to
the game. But I don't know, man, I mean when we talk
about DVDs CDs, I mean,I don't want to sound like an old

(29:07):
head, but I mean there issomething to be said about that physical copy.
Obviously, like I'll never go backin time, like it's fucking convenient
that we can pull up movies onthe screen stream stuff. Um, But
I mean, I mean there wassomething to be said about those physical hard
copy CDs you open it up.Sometimes it come with a poster that come
with a little booklet. I don'tknow. And now it's just like,

(29:29):
oh, the new album's coming out, Like oh, I'll just launched my
phone on Friday when album comes out. I don't know. It's just something.
It's a little different, but itis what it is. Yeah.
I believe also too that it's notthat because there are some of those old
heads that hate on the technology andtheir mind is still like I wish it
was still this way. Yeah.No, we're kind of just reminiscing U.

(29:49):
Yeah. It's nostalgia. Yeah,I mean like that's how we grew
up. Yeah, especially like theold Disney Disney movies they come in that
little like booklet type of Yeah.Yeah that wasn't it, Like plastic plastic.
I mean I could just hear itto this day. I could smell
that plastic and yeah, I meanI'm never wanted. It's like my dad
and mom. There's there are peoplethat fight against technology like it's bad.

(30:11):
Really, like they refuse to likeeventually when they have to, and then
they're like behind and then I haveto like tell them like, yeah,
this is why I tell you guyslike you got to keep up with like,
don't fight it. They'll still fightit. They'll still fight it.
So I've never wanted to fight technology. Obviously I'm up on everything, but
it is something to be said about, you know, back in the days
growing up and having those things.That's why I'm enjoying watching my parents.

(30:37):
They're I mean when I say they'renew, maybe five six years my parents
just started using iPhones because now thatthey were against it in their heads,
they just didn't need that technology.Yeah, but in the past five six
years, it's just the joy Isee in their faces where they could zoom
their friends from different countries, differentcities, across the states. It's they

(31:03):
just enjoy it. So it's coolto see them using the technology. But
the classic common thing that all usand all the kids meaning in our age
range, No, it's the parentsalways saying, hey, how do you
how do you hang this up?There's the law near it. It's all
like these little things, Mom,you just turn it off. You click

(31:26):
this to turn it on. Imean to this day, like when my
mom comes and visits, she alwayshas at least one question like hey,
can you check my phone? Likewhy is it doing this, and it's
and it's always like it's just doinglike, no, Mom, like you
pressed something. At some point,you accidentally pressed something, you know what
I'm saying. And she's just like, I don't know why, it's just
doing this. Before it was doingthis, and it's like, yeah,
mom, because at some point youaccidentally pressed something. But I'll fix it

(31:49):
for you. And then I haveto fix it. But I mean,
it's funny. I mean, I'llleave it with this because this was from
mister Chalk years ago, who's misterTalk was a DJ that I used to
work with in La Radio and Seratowas first coming out the new technology of
yo, guys, we don't haveto use records anymore. Everything can be

(32:10):
on the computer, and there werestill people it was that error where people
were sort of against it. Stillyou're not a real DJA. And he
said this, he said, ifyou don't follow technology, you'll be left
behind. So I'm gonna leave itwith that.
