TheEusebius McKaiserShow

In many ways, millennials have had it relatively easy compared to the generations before them.

Long before Google, MacBooks and Tinder, a different generation got through their youth with a little less ease.

Presenter Eusebius McKaiser invited listeners to share their nostalgic memories of the era before digital everything.

2. Having to adjust the aerial for a better picture on your TV - no HD.
