A long time ago during a presidential campaign the answer to a question was: Ford and Dole. Johnny Carson’s question was: “Name a lemon and a pineapple.”
I find more and more of this the older I get. I mention things like four on the floor and all I get is blank looks. I could go on and on. On the other hand I have no idea what the younger generation is talking about. It is good in a way, though, if I have problems with the computer or the phone, I let my grandkids fix it.
I flew from JFK to Frankfurt on the Pan Am Clipper Maid of the Seas N739PA (Which was later blown up by terrorists over Scotland), and I flew from Frankfurt to Berlin (Germany, not Berlin China) on the Pan Am Clipper John Alden N320PA. The only reason I know the names and registrations is I took pictures. Lol I just looked up the Clipper John Alden N320PA. That 1966 Boeing 727-21 is still around. Apparently after serving several airlines, it was converted to a VIP configuration and at one point was used by The Jonas Brothers as their charter jet bearing N30MP. That airliner is 57 years old, holy crap.
1:18 The old guy makes more sense. Cash is now called cheese. Wheels are now dubs. Subs are pubs. Kicks are thrills. Shoes are shoes, boots, etc. I think the topic is slang.
@@crosslink1493 I don't know about that now, "duece and a quarter" has been around since Bui-Hog started making cars 225 inches long in the 1960's, back when 15" wheels were as big as you could get without having them custom built.
75 year old woman (at the time) actually is from the generation preceding the Baby Boomers -- The Silent Generation, born during the Great Depression and/or World War II
Yes. I’m the Berlin Wall girl 🤦🏻♀️
@@XX-pl3tm It was torn down by David Hasselhoff. Little known fact!
What year was this?
The big Berlin wall of China!
Where is it?
@@kathleenferguson3296 you don't know about that guy Irvinng Berlin?
Omgosh thank you for posting this!!! I’ve been looking for this for YEARS!
Very welcome! Are you one of the people in it?
ZZZ,

They were calling shoes kicks in the 50s
I miss smart hosts that made light of ignorance instead of spewing it. Johnny, Jay, David...etc.
No politically biased rants. Miss the pure humor and lighthearted sarcasm.
This settles it I’m old ☮️😐
Hard to believe Jays clips are ancient as Johnny's!!
Johnny who?
(Just kiddin'! 😄)
I loved hearing a 75 year old say "fo shizzle" even if she couldn't define it.

Even I know some teenager lingo.
I have a dictionary, book that is. Any word outside of that is slang.
What grammatical expression describes “groovy” and “bummer”?
Booty call... really? that's what she meant??!!! Damn it!!
I.vame he from Germany in July 1974 on Pan AM flight Papa 2 Foxtrot 2...
Dude, Kix is a rock band. Geeeshh..
It's also a cereal...Sheeesh😉
If they're pumped up kicks, you better run
better run
Pan Am - Peter Pan's friend 🤣
Sounded good to me.😉
At least no one guessed its short for Pamela Anderson
Berlin China, how are people so clueless…
I haven't watched late night since Leno left.
I haven’t, either. I miss Jay and Craig Ferguson.
Pan Am was Peter Pan's friend is a great answer.
Agreed.
This makes me feel old, because I don't know the young answers, and young when I don't know the old answers. I'm mostly old, though.
I'm 64 years old. Though I haven't had one in a couple decades or so, I know what a booty call is and my grandchildren know what groovy means...
Oh come on, you did booty last year 😂
Last time I watched (or could stay up to watch) was when Jay hosted. I like his "Garage" show, though.
I love Jay Leno used to watch him when he was on cnbc
Christ the Yanks must be the thickest nation out!!

No-oo...the question is...do the Boomers care about the weird, frequently useless crap the modern kids like today?
I'm 64 and know what a player is; and going commando. But, admittedly, none of the other young generation slang.
they? must intentionaly select foolish contestants myself ?in mid 80s i knew all the correct meanings
I am in my sixties and did not know about half of the young-age words.

To clarify, 'Dubs' are specifically big 22-inch rims. That's been around the car world as long as 'Deuce and a Quarter."

Never heard of deuce and a quarter. That would be $2.25. @@crosslink1493
I miss Jay . Lol.
I do, too.
im 43 and the only one i had never heard of was the marshmallow peanut butter thing. . . .
He is right on the Grills , the Wii
I never hear of a Lid. Wow.
avid reading paid off
Good test 👍👍
Now I finally know what bff means. Up move from Jamaica.
Among girls it also means "best female friend."
I don't believe this fellow is trying to make a come back
Actually a lid is 3/4 of an ounce. A nickel a dime a lid and an ounce.
Some issue with the level of the questions ?
I got all but one.
Gen X?
Me too .... I missed fluffernutter.

Ha! ..... I still use quite a few of those...I'm fucken old !
A lid was actually a "dime bag" in the mid 70's. Normally about 1/3 of an OZ. "OUNCE". back then, 30 bucks an ounce, 10 bucks a lid🫠
