<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the Christian o'connel show podcast. Right now, though,

0:00:05.800 --> 0:00:08.320
<v Speaker 1>there are certain ways that you can kind of date yourself.

0:00:08.360 --> 0:00:10.760
<v Speaker 1>You can let people know how old you are simply

0:00:10.800 --> 0:00:12.959
<v Speaker 1>by not using numbers. So this morning, let's try this

0:00:13.080 --> 0:00:16.239
<v Speaker 1>without using numbers, tell us how old you are? God

<v Speaker 1>a people already and started to do this. Christian, I

0:00:18.520 --> 0:00:22.680
<v Speaker 1>watched a moon landing at school. That's from Charmain. I

0:00:22.800 --> 0:00:25.640
<v Speaker 1>used to be able to get five dollars from the ATM.

0:00:25.920 --> 0:00:28.160
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember when they used to give up smaller amounts.

0:00:28.800 --> 0:00:30.400
<v Speaker 1>That's all you had in there? There was no more

0:00:30.400 --> 0:00:34.920
<v Speaker 1>money coming out five bucks. Christian, Humphrey be Bear taught

0:00:34.920 --> 0:00:36.639
<v Speaker 1>me about the importance of pants.

0:00:36.840 --> 0:00:40.080
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I love Humphrey for me, I can.

0:00:40.440 --> 0:00:42.120
<v Speaker 1>Easy let you know how old I am. But the

0:00:42.120 --> 0:00:43.880
<v Speaker 1>fact that I used to have the ring three times

0:00:43.880 --> 0:00:45.560
<v Speaker 1>if I wanted mom and dad to come and collect

0:00:45.560 --> 0:00:48.720

0:00:48.760 --> 0:00:52.120
<v Speaker 1>coins in the payphone, Patsy, without using numbers, how old

0:00:52.159 --> 0:00:55.080
<v Speaker 1>are you? At the end of the night on the TV,

0:00:55.560 --> 0:00:58.120
<v Speaker 1>the test pattern would come up to signify the end

0:00:58.120 --> 0:01:00.279
<v Speaker 1>of programming for the day. Do you remember that when

0:01:00.280 --> 0:01:02.520
<v Speaker 1>they used to have like office hours where they were

0:01:02.560 --> 0:01:05.480
<v Speaker 1>just go to sleep. The TV would go to sleep.

0:01:05.200 --> 0:01:07.000
<v Speaker 3>At night a time before infomercial.

0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:09.880

<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I'm sure this doesn't happen now,

0:01:15.280 --> 0:01:18.640
<v Speaker 1>but twenty years ago there was an announcer who were

<v Speaker 1>It's like, this is amazing.

0:01:45.360 --> 0:01:48.400
<v Speaker 3>In the fifties, the very first bit of a strained TV,

0:01:48.440 --> 0:01:50.800

<v Speaker 1>and friend's phone numbers because they were all in a

0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:08.880
<v Speaker 1>book that got posted through my door every year. Do

0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:10.919
<v Speaker 1>you remember that the phone book white in the yellow

0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:14.360
<v Speaker 1>pages looking up your friends or a girlfriend's phone number

0:02:14.400 --> 0:02:16.840
<v Speaker 1>in did you just have their dress as well? Yes?

0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:20.079
<v Speaker 1>It did. Now we worry about too much information that

0:02:20.760 --> 0:02:24.480
<v Speaker 1>you look up some name stranger and just call them

0:02:24.560 --> 0:02:28.960
<v Speaker 1>up and have a chat. That's nuts, nuts when you

0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:31.440
<v Speaker 1>think about it. Jack, you boy, without using numbers? How

0:02:31.440 --> 0:02:32.320
<v Speaker 1>old are you? All right?

0:02:32.360 --> 0:02:35.880
<v Speaker 3>The first income I ever made was selling burnt CDs.

0:02:36.200 --> 0:02:38.359
<v Speaker 1>Wow, it was a time where not.

0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:41.760
<v Speaker 3>Everybody had the CD burner, but everyone was playing CDs.

0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:45.320
<v Speaker 1>She burned them from LimeWire or what were using napster.

0:02:45.200 --> 0:02:48.040
<v Speaker 3>Or No, this is before even downloading them illegally. So

0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:50.680
<v Speaker 3>just copying a CD that I had to have a

0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:52.840
<v Speaker 3>copy of and burning a copy of it.

0:02:53.000 --> 0:02:55.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And do you remember some people would have that

0:02:55.520 --> 0:02:57.560
<v Speaker 1>home printer where you could print off the CD.

0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:00.640
<v Speaker 3>Did you ever I had a you could get all

0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:03.480
<v Speaker 3>that stick a paper that's right to put over the

0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:04.240
<v Speaker 3>top of the CD.

0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:06.600
<v Speaker 1>Yes, you could actually make you look quite good, couldn't you?

0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:09.920
<v Speaker 1>Christian I, without using numbers, I could tell you how

0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:12.760
<v Speaker 1>old I could fill up my car for under twenty cents.

0:03:13.120 --> 0:03:15.359
<v Speaker 1>I presume that's a typo sharp and it is twenty

0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:20.519
<v Speaker 1>bucks unless you are Henry t Ford. All right, let's

0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:22.560
<v Speaker 1>go to lines. Good morning, Margaret.

0:03:22.840 --> 0:03:24.720
<v Speaker 2>Good morning, how are you this morning?

0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:27.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm good, Margaret, And without using numbers, tell us how

0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:28.000
<v Speaker 1>old you are.

0:03:28.560 --> 0:03:31.280
<v Speaker 2>Well before there was head, shoulders, knees, and toes. You're

0:03:31.280 --> 0:03:34.920
<v Speaker 2>actually counting groups. So really I'm fingers, toes, fingers, toes,

0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:37.440
<v Speaker 2>fingers and blind mice, and you should be able to

0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:41.640
<v Speaker 2>work out exactly how old I am, how well we

0:03:41.760 --> 0:03:42.480
<v Speaker 2>do Back.

0:03:42.360 --> 0:03:43.480
<v Speaker 1>In the day, it changed.

0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:47.800
<v Speaker 2>Back in the day they counted in groups, so they

0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:51.560
<v Speaker 2>use fingers, toes, fingers, toes, fingers, and blind mice. Surely

0:03:51.600 --> 0:03:53.280
<v Speaker 2>you can figure that out to you.

0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:57.280

<v Speaker 1>Wait about our IQ level?

0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:11.920
<v Speaker 2>No, not even close. That's how people used to count

0:04:11.920 --> 0:04:14.880
<v Speaker 2>in groups of things. Let's say you trigger at numbers.

0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:16.080
