Cal was ready to dump his storage bins of CDs, tape cassettes, and DVDs — until he discovered a twist: the world is racing back to the very things he was about to throw away. Parents are pulling out old DVD players so their kids can choose movies without being spoon-fed by algorithms. Taylor Swift just announced her next album will also drop on cassette. And suddenly “Old School Cal” looks like he’s ahead of the curve. In this episode, Cal explores why physical media is making a comeback in the Age of AI, what it says about trust, choice, and control — and how sometimes the stuff we think is obsolete becomes in vogue all over again.
