National and local commercials, promos and news from the 80's and early 90's. Check out playlists that categorize commercials by interest and industries. My source tapes are from across the US, but a majority of my tapes contain local programming from Spokane, WA.
I want to go back and do it all over ...I am telling you the 70’s and 80’s were my decades and they were the best years of my life. Those decades were quite possibly the last best decades in America. One has to understand that America was absolutely a different place back then. It was still a treat then to get 25 cents from mom and walk uptown to the gas station to get a Coca-Cola or Pepsi or to the ice cream shop and get a CMP ice cream. We truly did not lock our doors and stayed out till after dark with our bikes and on Halloween we all went trick-or-treating without our parents at night in the cold and it was great fun.. In the summer we played outside all day and all night. I remember wonderful 4th of July celebrations going on picnics and then mom took us to the ball park and we laid on blankets to watch the fireworks. And of course Christmas and even though it was tuff for my mom raising us she always made sure we had a great holiday . Even Easter was special in America back then... as we got older we started to go see the movies and we really did have the best movies. We had real holidays were we all got together and enjoyed each other’s company. We ate dinner every night together and talked not shouted at each other. We had great stores that are all but gone now in 2024 and great movie theaters and of course the MALLS! It was not the 80’s without a Mall. My very first few jobs were at the mall. First Macdonald’s and then The Gap!. Yes sir those days were GREAT! and we were very lucky to have lived them .... today I don’t even see kids outside and everyone is in fear for safety from crazy people.... I don’t recognize America now..God Bless us all ! And now for that first job at Macdonald’s, it was great ! We had McDLT’s, fried apple pies. (What a huge mistake McDonald’s made discontinuing them) real fried chicken strips, fresh made pancakes and biscuits and not to forget the holiday coupon books for five dollars and the food was HOT and tasty for a good price, in fact you could get a cheeseburger, fries and a drink for less then a dollar. but today (2024) , it’s sad and a joke, kids standing around doing nothing but reading iPhones, floors filthy, food is at best warm and nobody cares, not even Macdonald’s, because I have called them many times but the kids from the last generation are running these companies and they just don’t care….everything seems to have gone to hell now. 😒

In the summer we played outside all day and all night, The only way my mom got us home to eat was a big brass bell she had outside the sliding glass doors that she would ring to get our attention to come home for dinner.

I remember I had this burger as a little kid probably around the age of first grade or so quite a few times I remember assembling it together unaware of what kind of burger it was or that it was even discontinued I always confused it with the big mac and thought that`s how big macs use to be as but I do remember these kind of burgers none the less.
ATARI was the most popular system for a while. It fought off INTELLIVISION and COLECOVISION. It also fought off the short lived VETREX and ASTROCADE. And we all know how the ODYSSEY 2 went. But there was no stopping NINTENDO. SEGA looked like it might knock out NINTENDO. And, well, we all know what happened with the surprise release of the SATURN! A# A
Ah, a time when the Cascades were not drowning in liberal filth. Even if Toy’s R Us had survived as a company, the store would have been looted by leftwing rioters and Kamala Harris supporters looking for free Barbie Doll and Star Wars Lego set handouts. I used to love the Pacific Northwest, but it has become so overrun with evil I would be terrified to even reach my foot over the border for fear of being assaulted.
