- What happens when a Millennial guesses 80's relics AND is asked to describe how they work? Well things get pretty funny! Of course she still has time to provide tech support to the Gen-Xer asking the questions!

I am SOOOO impressed that she can read an analog clock.
A Cassette is an enclosed component that can simply be inserted and removed, as opposed to reel-to-reel tape which had to be manually strung through the player, and started on the take-up reel.
TV's had a remote. It was the kid closest to the TV.
The main set of channels was VHF - Very high frequency. The other set of channels, which I never had any luck with, was UHF - Ultra high frequency. Slightly behind the knobs that selected the channels were rings for fine tuning. There were also controls for side to side tracking and vertical rolling.
Re: tv - no vertical hold? No horizontal hold? Fancy tv! Born in 1963 here, so interesting that I couldn’t recognize some of these items. I’d never before seen a vegetable jello or a hotdog jello. Ick! That hair dryer: those were continuations of 1950s products. That looks like a late-60s or early-70s version. My mother had one. Used it once. Apparently it was as useless as it looks.
You are very fortunate to have escaped vegetable jello! xoxo
The bottom knob is for the UHF channels. Kind of like AM and FM on the radio, you had VHF and UHF signals. UHF would most likely be local programs. I would watch old cartoons on the UHF channels.
Grew up poor and we used the 45 centers as Pog's. Cause the rents had a ton laying around.
Bottom dial was UHF channels, channels above 13
Were you able to use it? We only ever got 4 channels ABC, CBS, NBC, and PBS. xoxo
@@JillMaurer yes 13 which was PBS 29 which was early FOX days and 34 which was TBN ( the church channel)
Ah yes... memories of the smell of ditto paper! (famously seen in one of the classroom scenes in 'Fast Times at Ridgemont High')
Sarah is really good. I guess those my elder son wouldn’t know those. So much memories. Thank You so much for sharing darling ❤️
Sarah did a lot better than I thought she would for sure!! xoxo
I think I owe Columbia house about a million lol
Ha! They were so hard to cancel!!
I still have my cassettes
Do you ever play them?
@@JillMaurer some work some don't it's a crap shoot lol
@@henrymullins4592 So many things can damage them including just using them!
@@JillMaurer true do you remember recording radio to cassette I still have a few of those lol
@@henrymullins4592 Oh yes. Personal mix tapes!
Poggs are Gen-X.
Somehow I missed those! xoxo
I feel like some of these are nitpicking. I was born in 1985, a millennial and had lots of audio casettes. My older sisters and I called them tapes. There were also video casettes, VHS. "Casettes" aren't the catch all for audio casettes.
Tapes works too.
Old TV's were fantastic. ;) Both the large knobs change channels. Top one was for VHF channels and the bottom on was for UHF channels. We had such options. ;)
Ha! They were great. Our windows to the world!! xoxo
Oh didnt we all know to use a pencil for the cassette rewind. It was the hack before hack was invented 😁. Never heard of a ditto machine but interesting to know where the expression comes from. I had that hairdryer as a child. I hated it. Oh believer me the doll was tackier than the loo roll it was on.😁. Thank you Jill. This was such a fun video
So true about the pencil being a hack! The ditto machine was pretty much only in school and only if your teacher sent you to do it. I had to "get qualified" on it and then could use it for my teacher. I never had that hairdryer but my mother did. My hair air dried until I was about 15. The dolls were tacky, but the people who had them clearly didn't think so! xoxo
I had records for a while growing up but I never knew of the 45 adapter. I also had cassette tapes, of course, and didn't know about the pencil trick. I just used my finger. I forgot about that last arm on the alarm clock until you said what it was for, then memories of my orange Garfield alarm clock came back to me. Most of my students don't know how to tell time on a clock with arms. On the tv, I remember the top knob being the main channels like ABC, CBS, NBC and the bottom being the others like Fox, the WB (or whatever it was called back then). I don't think I've heard of the Ditto machine. To my great fortune I never had to suffer through a Jello mold but the artistry behind some of them - especially that hot dog one - is pretty impressive. What a fun video!
Thank you Autumn! I know that Garfield clock! My aunt loved Garfield. The pencil is so much easier than your finger. We never had channels that would come in on that other dial. I ran the dittos for my teachers in the 70s and am not sure when they started using copiers. Jello salad should never have been a thing. xoxo
UHF, VHF. Lol.
Omg Jello salad!? I had never seen that, wow wonder who was the genius that came up with that lol... the other big question is how did it become a thing‽ wow so unappetizing lol 😆
Jello stretched to sell more jello. You were lucky to escape these! xoxo
The bottom large knob on the TV was for VHF channels. We only had UHF channels when I was young so we never used it either. Did you ever type mimeograph stencils? We were taught how to in high school typing class. I had that hair dryer - mine was green. The jello salads brought back bag memories - not good ones!
I never used the mimeograph machine. When I first took typing I was right at the stage where most of them were manual returns but there were a couple of push button return machines that we all fought over. Ugh! I'm definitely with you on the jello salads!! xoxo
Don't go trying to pin Jello Salad on the Awesome Generation. That abomination was unleashed on the world by either the Boomers or the Silent Generation.
Ha!
I still own my records. They always cause interest when young people drop in.
How are they holding up Daniel? They were so subject to scratching and warping. xoxo
@@JillMaurer The ones I played a lot are badly scratched. My Sutherland LUCIA is dire! I prefer CDs but the record boxes are so lovely to look at I cannot throw them out! CDs are so small that the covers are never as effective. Apart from scratches, records jump when anyone walks by. They look great but I feel that CDs are more practical.
Records/LPs sound way more natural than digital format.
Agreed. At least the first time you play them. But they always scratch.
Sarah's mom here- that was funny. I my first 45 was Hooked on a Feeling by I don't know who, my older brother's first 45 was American Pie. The only Jello Salad in my fancy house growing up was strawberry with bananas. Note to Sarah- Maker Grandma (Sarah's great grandmother) made the the Toilet Paper Dolls .
Welcome Cyndi! Such fun memories! I didn't have a first 45 because my mother bought my sister and I a little record player in its own suitcase along with several 45s from a local garage sale. It was a wonderful gift. xoxo
Ahhh! So many memories again!❤️
Times were so different!! xoxo
Jill is a little too geeky for this. Once you identify the basic item and function, leave it alone. Even someone from that age wouldn't always know the intricate details of how the controls or features work. That's different for every model and meaningless.
Are you sure Sarah's a millennial shouldn't have blue hair she's not overweight she's a good looking girl what are her politics that I bet you they're not right-wing I bet you they're far left but she's too good looking so she's got to be conservative
That’s quite the ignorant stereotype filled, illiterate word salad you shared there Mark.
Ditto is an old shorthand notation (from Latin I think) that means, the same thing again.
In cheesy rom-coms, the girl might say, "I love you.", and the guy ruin it by saying, "Ditto."
I don't know how I found you, but you guys are all right!
the stuff that comes out of a can is shaving foam. it's gross and should be banned, along with cartridge razors.
people unfortunately call it shaving cream, but real shaving cream is a different thing. it's closer to shaving soap.
The bottom nob was for the UHF channels. You would set the upper channel to U and then adjust the lower nob to dial in the channel. There were very few UHF channels in most places. That was a different frequency used for local and community channels. Do you remember the movie with Weird AL called UHF?
Pogs were a millennial thing. You had to be a kid between 1993-1996.
Relics!!!!’ 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes! Sarah wanted me to call them that!! xoxo
I knew the answer to your question. You might not have seen my hand raised.
We called the Ditto Machine a mimeograph machine.
Oh is a Ditto Machine and a mimeograph the same thing? The one I used said "Ditto" on it, and we just called it a ditto machine. xoxo
“Sometimes “. Jill sighs thinking about her mothers Jell-O salad so so funny. I have forwarded both of these videos to my 27-year-old son
Yeah! I wouldn't have phrased it this way at the time, but I was not a fan!! xoxo
This was so funny! Some of these items brought back memories but a few I had no idea. I am going to quiz my 13 yr old! Must say she does know how to tell time 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you! Oh wow! She may be the only 13 year old who knows how to tell time!! xoxo
Ha! Back in the day, we used the “mimeograph” for short runs of communication. All others went to the typesetter. Good grief, how time flies aye?
So true Ann! I never used the mimeograph. For some reason this just made me think about microfiche! I should have asked Sarah about that!! xoxo
