Back in the 80's and 90's, I would fill up the end of my VHS tapes by recording myself just flipping through channels until the end of the tape was reached. Here are the results over 20 years later...
Great time capsule of Cable TV. The Scoreboard pop-up at the 3:53 mark indicates this was the same day of the historic Regional Semi-final between Kentucky and Duke, March 28th, 1992.
Sign of the times: Having to call a a 1-900 number for weather/ski conditions, and having to pay 85 cents a minute for that call! Twenty-three years later, all I have to do is grab my iPhone and ask Siri to give me this information, and she does it without me getting charged anything other than what my monthly Sprint bill costs.
Do you happen to know the exact date of this? I was going to use the audio for a class project, matched with a still image. I plan to make a video and attribute you to it if that's okay.
Piggy Piggy well thanks, i needed some random dialogue for the end of a track i'm working on, searching "flipping through channels" and ended up on the perfect thing!
