E6: Phones, Lyndon Johnson, and Episodic Storytelling


Listen Later

Welcome back to your favorite shindig! Did you miss us? In this episode your hosts Garr and Éric reminisce about old phones, talk about how to structure a show within the season format, and reflect on the Johnson administration. Remember Blackberrys? How did television change media and American culture? There is also brief discussion of boomer culture, the spoils of the second World War, and advertising. Don't hold on to anger, a lesson that Garr's neighbour seems not to have learned yet. Get ready, coz it's going to be wild! Recorded 29 April 2023.


NB: This was recorded before Henry Kissinger died, so don't @ us.
