In this light and cozy Thanksgiving episode of Midlife Mud, Chris and Morgan take a trip back to the analog days — when phones had cords, weekends meant Blockbuster runs, and friendships were built on mixtapes and movie nights. From handwritten notes to the evolution of group chats, they reflect on how communication, music, and entertainment have changed from the 1980s to now — and what’s stayed the same at the core of the human experience.
This isn’t a deep dive — it’s more like the marshmallows on top of your sweet potato casserole: sweet, fluffy, and worth savoring.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Growing up in the 1980s vs. now
- The evolution of phones, mixtapes, and movie rentals
- Coming-of-age movies and cultural milestones
- The shift from anticipation to instant gratification
- Why nostalgia hits harder during the holidays
Whether you’re driving to grandma’s or recovering from too much pie, this is your permission slip to slow down and reminisce.
