Of course, the show is all about what they did to unwed pregnant mothers during that time, so of course there were equally ****ty times but then but DAMMNIT I want to live in the 60s!

Completely unrelated to what I've just said, but relevant to this thread, I remember grow up listening to the radio and trying to tape (i.e. cassette tape) my favourite songs when they came on, and trying not to let the radio DJ/presenter's voice cut in the beginning or end of the song. Good times.
