1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,400
Speaker 1: A wise person once said the nineties was the last

2
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:10,559
Speaker 1: decade before everyone decided they wanted everything everywhere, all at once.

3
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 2: Wasn't that a movie? It's like drinking out of a

4
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 2: fire hose most days.

5
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 1: That person was none other than Birdie Numb Numb ninety seven,

6
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:22,120
Speaker 1: who left that comment on a Reddit post recently came

7
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,120
Speaker 1: like it, and he or she is kind of right.

8
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 1: I mean, a lot of people look back at the

9
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 1: nineties as sort of a golden age when Blockbuster video thrived,

10
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: MTV played actual music videos.

11
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, the good old days before God and I'd call

12
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,160
Speaker 3: into radio stations to take my requests.

13
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no, there would do that.

14
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 2: I had to stop at a pay phone in order

15
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 2: to do it.

16
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 1: Life was definitely different back then, and that's why a

17
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 1: new poll came out that asked people what's something that

18
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 1: was socially acceptable back in the nineties but not anymore interesting.

19
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 1: Let's just go on the list. Number eight is having

20
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: absolutely no idea where your kids were.

21
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that.

22
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: Was like the norm, and they even literally had to

23
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: make PSAs that said, it's ten pm, do you know

24
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: where your children are? Do you remember that?

25
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 2: It was like come home before the sun comes down.

26
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, but as a teenager, it was so much easier

27
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 3: to lie to your parents.

28
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you.

29
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, no one says you need to stop lying to

30
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 1: your parents just because you're not a teen age.

31
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 3: I don't know how you do it anymore. Everything but

32
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 3: your parents have trackers.

33
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: You just got to be more creative for.

34
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 3: Currently terrible I mean that was terrible line back then too.

35
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 3: I got caught all the time, so I don't know

36
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 3: what I'm talking about.

37
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 1: Holograms.

38
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, i'd be like God with your hologram in your bed.

39
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 1: Last night wasn't a day it got busted again? Number

40
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: seven mooning people. Oh, that was a much more common

41
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 1: prank back in the nineties, and people just kind of

42
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 1: accepted it because it was in like all the TV

43
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: shows and every movie at it. But now if you

44
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: try it, you might get arrested for publican de Yeah.

45
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 2: I will never forget.

46
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 3: I was on a train because my grandmother would only

47
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 3: travel by Amtrak, and we went by a crossing and

48
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 3: there was five guys with their pants down in the

49
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 3: medium and I was like, there was the most exciting

50
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:22,079
Speaker 3: moment of.

51
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 1: My eighteen year old Wow, did you try and circle

52
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: back and go back for a second. Look, did you

53
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 1: say the cute one? What do I feel like book

54
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,959
Speaker 1: is going to have a very detailed story about.

55
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,399
Speaker 2: Every single thing from this back mooning.

56
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,639
Speaker 1: Number six, making plans with someone multiple days in advance,

57
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 1: not talking to them about it again, and just showing

58
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,239
Speaker 1: up without having to reconfirm it five separate times.

59
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just that I came, dude, there's so much

60
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 3: anxiety if you haven't had at least three more texts

61
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 3: about it, right, you have to.

62
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 2: Hear from them in the day of.

63
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 3: But what's the worst it could happen? Alexis like, you

64
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 3: get there and then they don't show up.

65
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, that is the worst I happened. But that's not

66
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 2: really that bad. I wasted my time.

67
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,080
Speaker 1: Even the restaurants do it where I'll like make a

68
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 1: reservation on open table and then they'll want me to

69
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 1: confirm right then, and then they'll have to confirm two

70
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: days ahead and then reconfirm one day head, and I'm like,

71
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: you know what, I don't want to eat there anymore.

72
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: You made this totally on fun for me. I guess

73
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:17,959
Speaker 1: like society just wants to build in more reasons for

74
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: us to back out. Yeah, because it's nice to cancel sometimes.

75
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 3: Come on, those poor restaurants are getting ghosted non stop,

76
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 3: ye you know.

77
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 1: Because they're being a little clinging minute back off. Number

78
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: five babysitting at age ten. Oh yeah, and we're not

79
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: just talking one kid. I mean babysitting multiple children at once.

80
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 1: One of them was a newborn, and that was just

81
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: the total norm back then. You really don't see a

82
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 1: whole lot of that with ten year olds looking after

83
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 1: entire families.

84
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 2: Now, that was actually my first babysitting job.

85
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 3: Was a newborn and another group of children, and I

86
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 3: was maybe in fifth or sixth grade, and then.

87
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 2: Newborn started projectile vomiting.

88
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 3: And I didn't know what to do, and so I

89
00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 3: picked it up away from me, and it was like

90
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 3: spray fire.

91
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 1: Hose all over the road, water down the.

92
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 3: Entire living God, it was the worst thing you could

93
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 3: have possibly done in that situation.

94
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: But you still took one hundred percent of the money

95
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 1: from that family.

96
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, that one dollar twenty five cents they were paying me.

97
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 2: Whoa pud on.

98
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: These are the things that used to be socially acceptable

99
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: back in the nineties, but not so much anymore. Number

100
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 1: four smoking in a restaurant.

101
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 2: Oh gods, used to go to Sherry's just cigarettes.

102
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 3: And it's wild that they had a smoking section, as

103
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 3: if the whole restaurant wasn't then filled with smoke.

104
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: It was an invisible barrier inside of the inside of

105
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: every building that stops the smoke. Even Burger King had

106
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:42,720
Speaker 1: smoking sections in the night.

107
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I like how it's even Burger King, as

108
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 3: if it was more high class to happen.

109
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 1: Happen those better times. Number three leaving your child in

110
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 1: the car while you went in grocery shop weather permitting.

111
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: Of course. Now the only person who dies that is

112
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: our producer, Producer Boyd. But he does make sure to

113
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,159
Speaker 1: crack the window, and he puts a sticker on his

114
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:06,279
Speaker 1: car that says free.

115
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 2: Kids have that he still has him too, he does.

116
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 1: No one is coming by and swiping on the don't

117
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 1: know why.

118
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 3: I'm more nervous about the kids climbing into the front

119
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 3: seat and somehow driving the Yeah anymore, No, y, it

120
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 3: just buttons Number two.

121
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: Not being reachable at all times of the day. If

122
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 1: someone wasn't home back then, or they didn't answer your call,

123
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 1: you just had to wait. Oh I missed that one

124
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,840
Speaker 1: so much. I try very very hard to make myself unreachable,

125
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 1: and people have such a big problem with it.

126
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 3: Unreachable is different than literally never responding like it's fine

127
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 3: if it takes a day for you to get back

128
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 3: to it. But the point is someone finally answers the questions.

129
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: A day is not enough, okay. I like seven eight

130
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: days to think of a good response to whatever street that.

131
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 2: Thing you that are in regards to you.

132
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: I'm making myself unreachable for the rest of this segment

133
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,279
Speaker 1: because the number one thing that used to be socially

134
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: acceptable back in the nineties but not anymore, showing up

135
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 1: at somebody's house unannounced to hang out with them and

136
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: they were actually happy that you stopped by.

137
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 3: It was a surprise.

138
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,560
Speaker 2: I don't even open my door for anybody. Bring it back.

139
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 2: You would love it, Alexis.

140
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 3: I'm telling you, I take all the stress and the

141
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 3: planning out of just seeing your friends, and there's no

142
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 3: reason to stop by, right you literally just stop by

143
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 3: to talk.

144
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,120
Speaker 2: But I don't open my door if somebody knocks.

145
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 1: No. Back in the nineties, you don't lock the doors,

146
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: You just open. Have you ever watch a TV show

147
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 1: from the nineties, They all just like walk into each

148
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: other's apartments at seven am. They're like, hey, I was

149
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 1: just in the neighborhood.

150
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 2: I thought it stopped buying. Okay, it's start leaving my

151
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 2: doors a lock. Yeah, that's what I said. Okay, got it.

152
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,160
Speaker 1: Bross Society text into seven eighty five nine two. Did

153
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,279
Speaker 1: we miss something from the nineties that used to be

154
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: totally okay but not anymore? We got your phones have

155
00:06:57,800 --> 00:06:58,919
