    Your channel gives me the same warm feelings I got when watching Night Flight when I was a kid, make them longer I could watch this for hours.

    Man , now I want to live in Eisenhower's America !
    I suppose the closest I can come to that are the Aesthetics of this one Savers store that I in the family used to go to in the early and mid 80s that retain the whole lot of those classic 50's design patterns .

    Is it just me or was late night TV made for stroners back in the day? It's like they knew anyone watching TV after 11 PM on a Friday or Saturday was baked out of their mind.

    That round trip fare of $450 is around $4500 in 2023 dollars adjusted for inflation.

    I especially liked the video about marketing and advertising. At the tipping point where the US was pushed into government driven consumerism. Oh brave new world indeed.

    These European visitors went from New York City to Miami Beach, then to Niagara Falls. Gasoline may have been cheap then, but that's still wasting it.

    Good job Batman and Robin re-hydrated the Security Council at the United Nations building, that’s something to tell your grandchildren.

    Apparently there were zero visual minorities in the US and people here look back with nostalgia

      That does account for a lot of the pining for the old days in social media threads, no question.

    The wife here is very stylish. I think I shall marry her. We will stay in our $10 a day Manhattan hotel.
    Flights in the EU are now much cheaper than flights in the US due to budget airlines.

    Around the 2:40 mark that women never put any change into the view finder and it's clearly one you pay for. Blooper reel!
    I also love how these European tourists are either American or Canadian. Lmao

    @21:34 Fascinating how much the standard of living has plummeted since then--in just the last few years. It's almost unbearable to watch.

    The soothing audio phonic baby food to lull the public into the modernity and dystopia we have today. Oh yeah the U.N. was so "great" of a mistake.

      The dystopia we have today is the same dystopia we had then.

    LOL Pan American. That company was unstoppable in the 60s. 2001: a Space Odyssey is set aboard a Pan American Space Ship. Well 2001 happened and Pan Am was ten years dead. Damn shame really. Now we're in 2023 and Delta is the big one now.

      And after both Pan Am and TWA went belly-up, The USA no longer has a flag carrier airline. Personally, I think Delta deserves it based on history.

      Every company that stepped up to get its logo in the movie was either gone by the actual 2001 (Howard Johnson's, Pan Am) or long surpassed in relevancy (IBM).

    How did they get alien robot John Malkovich to narrate this?
