1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: Jam Mission with Jones and Amanda.

2
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:04,920
Speaker 2: All Right, are you ready for a nostalgia hit?

3
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,400
Speaker 3: Yes, Billy Joel wasn't enough.

4
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:21,280
Speaker 2: No, listen to this, Oh Pong Sorry. Pong Pong was

5
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 2: released by Atari forty nine years ago today. Why remember

6
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 2: the ad? Yeah, you're watching the most exciting game you

7
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 2: will ever see on your TV set.

8
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:33,520
Speaker 3: Not long until we hit squid Games.

9
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:35,559
Speaker 2: That's a long way from there, isn't it.

10
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,519
Speaker 1: Last night, when I was going to bed, my youngest

11
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:42,599
Speaker 1: who's nineteen, has set up his gaming console in my

12
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:43,279
Speaker 1: office thing.

13
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 3: So he's got three screens. He's playing some shoot in

14
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 3: the face game. I don't even know what it was.

15
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,280
Speaker 3: It's got his headphones and he's talking to some kid

16
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 3: in Arizona.

17
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 1: And he's got another screen that he's watching YouTube videos

18
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 1: while he has these two other screens and his computer.

19
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 3: He's got this computers that's massive.

20
00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 1: It's got all these colored lights and when he switches

21
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: it on, the whole has just goes do it takes

22
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: all the power out of our house.

23
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:07,479
Speaker 2: But imagine the brain cells it takes to multitask like that.

24
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 2: Pong blew our minds.

25
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I couldn't have like two paddles a little ball.

26
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, So for people who don't know Pong's, well, let's

27
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 2: describe what it was. So you put it, you played

28
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 2: it on your TV screen. We never had it, but

29
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 2: you played it on your TV screen, and it was

30
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 2: like a little ball went there and you could block

31
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 2: it by moving a line up and down and it

32
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 2: made this noise.

33
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 3: I thought it was the greatest thing. Well, it was

34
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 3: the greatest thing. The kid across the road for Christmas

35
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 3: did he get it.

36
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,680
Speaker 1: He was getting Pong and he said, I'm going to

37
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: be up at blue dark to get to play it.

38
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 3: I didn't know what blue dark. Blue dark apparently is.

39
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: When it's really early morning, like three o'clock free dawn,

40
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: pre dawn, but he caught it blue dark. I've never

41
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 1: heard anyone else call it blue dark. But I just

42
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 1: you know, when you have that flashback in your mind.

43
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: I just remember saying, oh, be up at blue dark.

44
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: And he was a bit older than me, and I

45
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: remember coming home saying, in my mind, I've always thought

46
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: of blue dark.

47
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 2: But also when I saw that thing about Pong, I

48
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 2: just had a burst of envy because I never got

49
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 2: those things. There was always someone else who'd get that stuff.

50
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 3: Didn't you one year get a pillow for Christmas? Excuse me?

51
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 2: My brother did. Mum, who I love very much, is

52
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 2: no longer with us, never quite got the thrill of

53
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 2: never quite did it. She put the effort in, but

54
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 2: the results were never great.

55
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 3: And bought a tontine for camera.

56
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and sometimes everyone an opera. And there was one

57
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,959
Speaker 2: year a Christmas Morning was always hard for me because

58
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 2: the neighbors, my friend caravan door and live next door,

59
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 2: and they got great presents, and she'd say, what did

60
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 2: you get? And so I was so excited on Christmas

61
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 2: Day that I'd have this anxiety that I've got to

62
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 2: show them that I got like a little kid's replica

63
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 2: Hammond organ, you know, and it was just no one

64
00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 2: wants a small organ br so, you know, and had

65
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 2: actually last Christmas said oh do you want this? He

66
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 2: had it in his cupboard, And I had an anxiety

67
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:06,639
Speaker 2: flashback when I.

68
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 3: Saw one of those little cassio ones.

69
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:10,919
Speaker 2: Not even that it was like a kid's one.

70
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 3: Oh with a colored key.

71
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I was, you know, I know that's the thing.

72
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 3: I'm the one you're blew in. Remember there was one

73
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 3: you're blowing?

74
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 2: Who wants that you know.

75
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 3: And you blow into it and you know it.

76
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 2: Wasn't one of those, but so you know, often there'd

77
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 2: be a stab of envy that someone up the road

78
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 2: would get the dour ones and so.

79
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 3: Or a bike. Kids would get a bike, some girl.

80
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 2: At school got some guy that s girl got a bike,

81
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 2: and der once not a pillow to be seen was

82
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 2: a kid like a packer loaded an packer carried on

83
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 2: a back to.

84
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 3: See people had any money back then, it was they.

85
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 2: Were simple times. No one had money and how old

86
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 2: do we sound? Like little house in the prairie. And

87
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 2: you got one. That's the why it was such a

88
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 2: big deal. You got one present for your birthday and

89
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 2: one present at Christmas and that was a dud. That

90
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 2: was it for a year.

91
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: And I'm of the BMX Bandit's era. And the pushbike

92
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: to get was a mongoose pushbike, you know, the chrome.

93
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 3: Frame, had the tough wheels, the red or yellow tough

94
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 3: wheels and those things. You could buy a three bedroom

95
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,719
Speaker 3: house for one of those back in the day. Then

96
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 3: my brother, years and years and years later by it

97
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 3: bought my nephew a mongoose pushbike, and I would get

98
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 3: all sentiment. I'm like, oh, I remember that.

99
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,679
Speaker 1: Then only last year out on the junk pile, there's

100
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: the mongoose.

101
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 2: Well see, I think this is why I overindulged my

102
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 2: own children to make up for what that day, for

103
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 2: what it felt like to not get the big presses.

104
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,040
Speaker 2: But we were a lot of most of us were

105
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:39,799
Speaker 2: in the same boat

106
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:41,919
Speaker 3: Jonesy and Amanda's sa
