I have tried, thank you for asking

this might shock you, but the fact I'm from the 30s is not something most people find relatable

no the 1630s obviously

yeah and most of them only care about the fashion and the whole mob scene with Al Capone and all that jazz
meanwhile I was busy just making ends meet
so there's a difference

I wouldn't really compare the Depression to how people have had to struggle in the modern day
but also my point wasn't that I wanted to bond over that?

my interests are also much more dated than most
how many people do you know listen to predominantly 40s music? other than me
counterstep: (on the clock)

radio plays are something of a lost art
but I will conceded that some podcasts do capture the old feeling of a good play


most people listen to Rogan or that crime shit though

he's just some guy who likes talking to people
that doesn't make him a genius


the ones like radio plays? you mean?
counterstep: (business as usual)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-06-12 09:46 am (UTC)(link)
for the acting? or the stories?
counterstep: (where's the party)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-06-12 11:01 am (UTC)(link)
careful there, you're gonna piss off half the country with that kinda talk 🙂

( but he doesn't disagree. a lot of podcasts feel like they're just people talking about...nothing. )
counterstep: (kek)

and yet they still listen to it
entertainment is cheap, nowadays

I still remember crowding around the radio just cause it was about to turn 7 so we wouldn't miss a second of the play

now people just expect free entertainment whenever they want, so drivel works just fine
counterstep: (you should have seen the other guy)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-06-12 11:31 am (UTC)(link)
just a different shade of brown
yeah I hear you

definitely believable, that

with half of the useless info I gotta trawl through on the Internet, I'd say that's accurate

so you'd consider yourself to have refined taste, then?
counterstep: (yeah whatever you say)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-06-12 11:48 am (UTC)(link)
surprisingly honest
I'll be sure to thank her then

what about movies? also shitty taste?
counterstep: (себя)

honesty is valuable when most of the people around me are more than willing to lie

you know, I've been curious about his work but I haven't any idea where to start
from the memes, I'll probably enjoy his stuff though
counterstep: (storm brewin)

[personal profile] counterstep 2025-06-14 08:16 am (UTC)(link)
maybe, but that's my reality, so it's more practical to just acknowledge the fact than linger on what or why

sure
maybe something this weekend, if you've got a few hours to spare
not much prep needed this weekend
