In this podcast clip, Ellen and Bob talk about needing to make more social media content. In an age of endless social media slop, why is pumping more and more out acceptable? Why have we become obsessed with quantity over quality?! If we make art in the woods and nobody's around to like, share and comment... did it really happen?!

Bob also has a near death experience.

Congrats Bob on 10 Years!

Back in August, we took Bob out for dinner and gave him an award. Here are some totally real (and in no way poorly photoshopped) pictures from that night!

Swipe to the end for the exact moment Bob was reminded he had to be in pictures...

Before VHS and before Betamax, there was 2 inch tape. These massive reels powered early TV broadcasting. They recorded entire shows on magnetic tape as wide as your thumb and heavy enough to break your back.

It was cutting edge technology in the 1950s and paved the way for every video format that came after. From live TV to home movies, it all began here.

Back in 1835 a New York paper called The Sun published six articles claiming astronomers had discovered life and civilization on the Moon. They described forests, oceans, unusual animals and even winged humanoids.

People believed it. The hoax spread fast. Eventually The Sun admitted it had fabricated the whole thing.

Before 8-tracks ruled car dashboards, there was the Stereo-Pak, the world’s first in-car tape system.

Invented by Earl “Madman” Muntz in the early 1960s, the Stereo-Pak used continuous four-track cartridges to bring full albums into cars for the first time.

It did not last long, soon replaced by the 8-track, but it kicked off the mobile music revolution, changing how people listened on the go forever.

Ever wonder how VHS tapes actually stored video?
It’s all thanks to a clever diagonal engineering hack called helical scan.

Instead of the tape running straight across, it wrapped around a spinning drum at an angle, letting the recording heads trace diagonal tracks fast enough to capture video’s huge bandwidth.

That design unlocked home video, broadcast recording, and portable cameras, shrinking entire TV studios into living rooms around the world.

Ever wondered why so many Victorian baby photos look haunted?

In the 1800s, cameras needed long exposure times and babies just couldn’t sit still. So mothers would hide under blankets or curtains to hold their children in place, sometimes even being painted out of the photo afterward.

That’s why old portraits often have eerie ghost-like shapes in the background. Not spirits... just moms doing their best Victorian-style parenting.

Follow us for more strange stories from photo history!

In 1924, Bell Laboratories changed music forever with the first electrically recorded discs. Using the Western Electric Recording System, sound was captured by a microphone, amplified, and fed to an electromagnetic cutting head.

This breakthrough allowed recordings to capture a wider range of frequencies, finally bringing both deep bass and crisp treble to records. Early versions experimented with rubber, but shellac 78 RPM discs quickly became the standard.

This was the start of modern sound recording as we know it, paving the way for vinyl, tape, CDs, and beyond.
