How to feel old.
Been listening to some pretty dark audiobooks at work. Stuff on the first Lebanon war (the early 80s version), the forced Ukrainian famine, the Cultural Revolution, the rise of Papa Doc...
For my mental health I had to take a break and check out something as light and unserious as I could find. And I settled on checking out the Talk Tuah podcast.
Twenty years ago, my first impression would have focused on how I felt dumber just from listening to it, would have said the hosts were the female versions of Beavis and Butthead. I would have been mean and dismissive about the whole thing.
But today? Props to her to trying to extend her fifteen minutes of fame and make something out of it with some cash grabs. I guess I respect that, at least. But what it did to my thoughts overall?
It just made me feel old.
