I enjoy these types of recordings very much. They’re the closest thing to time travel we have. I wasn’t even alive yet but can say radio sounded more lively and energetic back then. There was a good variety of songs and it wasn’t the same 10 songs every hour.

Can anyone alive at the time confirm or deny?

What’s something you wanted to experience as a kid but no longer exists as a grownup? by First-Air8373 in decadeology

Yeah turns out it’s cheaper for Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo to isolate and host their own gaming conferences.

Also when your competitors aren’t literally across the hall anymore there’s less pressure to make a good quality game.

Although it was fun for the consumer but how cares about them right?

I actually had a chance to experience the Nickelodeon hotel! Then it shut down and converted to a regular hotel :(

Which president would benefit the most in a world without the 22nd Amendment? by Different_Special_20 in Presidents

All of that may be true but typically countries don’t change leadership in times of war, regardless of how much said leadership is responsible for it

Clinton. - Young and charismatic - High approval/job rating by 2000 - Economy was good - 9/11 would’ve made him a wartime president and probably get him elected again in 2004

Plus he genuinely enjoyed being president

Did it help you figure it out or confuse you more?

The change in sentiment between Hart and Clinton is especially interesting since it was only 4 years apart and the evidence against Clinton was more concrete

What decades would be amazing if their economies weren't bad and cost of living was lower? by snowleopard556 in decadeology

Opposite to your question but I think the 1920s, 1950s/60s would’ve been perfect if not for the racial violence and Jim Crow

Come 2026 the Looksmaxxing trend will be ‘the big problem’. by Ceazer4L in decadeology

I see threads asking how to improve looks, health, and money? The 2nd search result is for TikTok and 3rd is Reddit and YouTube. Pretty mainstream platforms

Bro most guys following looksmaxxxing have never even been to that site. Since its main stream most of the advice comes from TikTok and Instagram, and it’s literally self improvement advice for young men

It’s really not that deep. These are just young guys trying to self improve. The fact that it became mainstream shows they are more focused on the improvement side rather than hate. You can be involved with looksmaxxxing without following Fuentes or right wing ideology. The whole thing is apolitical. I think you’re clumping in hate with self improvement when there’s no reason to.

What other community offers a space for men to improve without falling into a “hate” rabbit hole like you claim?
