Description: Tonight we're browsing a really cool retro 1969 LIFE magazine I found at a local flea-market thrift store. It's main article is about the LEM (Lunar Module) which was the tiny spacecraft that detached from the Apollo Command Module in lunar orbit and sent Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin descending onto the lunar surface to be the first ever humans to step foot on another world.
We also browse the rest of the issue and look at some of the more interesting ads of the late 1960's. Lot's of unique and memorable marketing of clothing, appliances, insurance, and of course, booze and cigarettes.
Additional context: This issue was from March 1969, and that Apollo 11 mission didn't happen until July of 1969, so it's fascinating to travel back in time and think about the anticipation of the event just 3 months later.
Thanks to all my patreon and paypal supporters. Your donations are so appreciated. I'm trying my best to continue making the most interesting and relaxing content I can, and the donations and the love in the comments is always a big encouragement.

Hope you’re doing good Rich, thanks for the new upload 💙
im good max thanks
Such a talent and only few followers, he really deserves about 2-3 million. He puts so much effort in his videos
He hasn’t been too active lately
@@soltantio That has nothing to do with it.
@@CinHalCedHerChance well, it has SOMETHING to do with it.
Only a few uploads = only a few followers

It never fails to amaze me how many important and influential scientific, artistic and cultural events can occur in the course of just one year, just a blink of an eye. Thank you for your consistently exceptional content and the magnificent voice that you use to deliver it. 🙏
so true. i feel like we are due for one of those years very soon between returning humans to the moon, spacex starship going to mars, and ai on the verge of surpassing general human cognition
I have really really bad trouble sleeping. This is the ONLY asmrtist that actually genuinely helps me.
Thank you new subscriber.
Dude you are slowly fixing my mental health, making me be happy to wake up in the morning, someone I can watch speak about my newish special interest, making my sleep schedule way better, and making me sleep. I hope you and everyone here has a great day or night and sleep well.
One of the best channels on entire youtube, informative, cozy and nostalgic. Always a delight to learn from your videos. I hope you are doing good.
informative cozy and nostalgic are perfect descriptors for the vibe i'm going for. thanks arista
Oh man I’ve been beating myself up and hating on everything and everyone and beyond stressed out with bills and work, and then out of nowhere, Rich appears with a warmly welcomed video showcasing some of his vintage magazines and focusing on the March ‘69 Life magazine. Pretty hard to find those, you know.
Thank you rich!! Your timing is impeccable ❤
glad if i can help turn down the noise for a while booster
booster, your comment got me trying to recall the "wear sunscreen" lyrics about nostalgia as a form of over pricing the past by masking the ugly aspects. A potential reminder that even THIS MOMENT, for all its flaws, can, too, become a relaxing bit of vintage in the future ?
" Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth."
Perhaps the welcoming framework Rich provides actually DOES increase its worth ? B-)
the zoom on the huge 1984 😭 i really appreciate how your videos never fail to make me relax and laugh at the same time.
The ASMR channel you have been searching for. A treasure, buried under the sand that is throw away, carless ASMR with no substance. Thank you again for another much anticipated video. Keep it up brother.
That multi-folding screen phone was pretty cool. Might be a popular "retro" design for today, although probably not very practical. Glad to see you back Rich!👍
Can’t get enough of space asmr. Love your channel a lot and continue doing space stuff
I get so hype when you upload! Thank you for the content 🙌🏼
thanks for this! You and Bob Ross have been my go-to Asmr channels for the past months now
Hurrah!!! Love listening to you ramble! My fave kinds of videos!! You have a sweet and innocent curiosity for all things, it’s just so infectious- can’t help but make me smile as I fall asleep 😊
🙂
Another video to watch a million times over, amazing content once again man!
this video was brilliant, my friend. i’ve come to realize page flippin’ one of my all time favourites, not least with a nostalgia twist to it. great work, love from sweden.
thanks tobey
Interesting topic, I wonder if in the future they will look at todays history and have the same thoughts.
i'm sure our descendants will always have something by to hold over our heads but so do our ancestors. it'll be cool to see this issue next to an issue about musk's first landing on mars
Welcome back! you make the best videos! Can't wait to fall asleep with this!
Your a legend Rich thanks for another upload.
always love seeing a new upload
Always get so excited when you post! Hope all is well :)
Hey papa bear!
Hope you’re well.
Thank you for uploading!
Hello to your lovely fam from Cess in Texas :)

Fantastic video rich as always! Hope you and your family are doing great and I look forward to more of you're content in the future 😊
thanks jerry we're all great
You remind me of Jim Weiss; his audiobooks always gave me such intense ASMR and this is so similar. Thank you for your amazing work!
Hi Rich, thanks for these magazines with us.
Since last year I've been hunting for Sky&Telescope magazines on ebay. Mostly from the 70s through 90s.
Really fun to read up on what amateur astronomy was like decades ago.
Also full of helpful tips for analog astrophotography projects:)
Cheers
cool. yea it really puts into perspective how much technology has progressed even in the last couple decades hasn't it?
@@LetsFindOut1 Indeed! Are you looking to do more magazine related videos? Would be pretty neat. 👍👍
Very relaxing 😴 I like reading old news magazines from the 90s it really shows you how much the world changed so fast. Keep it up rich 🤟
thanks for commenting beast. i'm glad you enjoy the tech nostalgia too
Legend has uploaded again! On my birthday too!!
Love your channel. Thank you for creating such great videos. I am always inspired by your content.
Finally another fantastic video from you

Love your channel. Interesting and relaxing. I fall asleep to these on all my work nights Many thanks!! 👌👍

@@LetsFindOut1 so happy to hear!! Sending you all my best wishes and love to your gorgeous family 🥰🙏
you are just the greatest, thank you for yet another great video! hope you are having lovely days!!
thanks gee
Great video Rich,honestly you deserve more recognition for your content 👍
I have a 1969 VW Beetle that I got from an estate of the man who bought the car new. My paperwork shows he purchased it on Mar 13 1969. I knew it was a fascinating year historically, and in the heat of the space races, but this browse through puts such a cool perspective into place for me. So cool!!!
wow what a coincidental date.
Happy to hear Rich again 😊💯
Awesome video man I love the page turning on old magazines. Can’t wait for more hope everything is ok. ❤
Ahhhh another great video to put on before bed
Thanks
i love this channel because i either fall asleep or learn something new. win win 😌
Great Discovery. Very interesting and educational video
Ive been listening to your 5 year old videos recently and your voice has changed a lot
i think so too. how do you think it's different i'm curious?
I've watched this video several times. It's sooooo good!
thanks eb
Thank you for sharing these magazines. I love the glimpses into the past. I actually tried to stay awake so I wouldn’t miss anything! I lasted about 20 minutes so now tonight I’m going to go back and try to watch the rest (and go to bed earlier). You are by far one of the most talented asmrtists out there. Please don’t add background music like one person suggested. That would detract from your overall mellow vibe (in my opinion).
💜💜💜 Love this! Retro for life
You have a sense of humor, you are into astronomy, you make great videos, you have a great voice, you speak very politely and you are very handsome. I don't know what else to look for in a man....
It’s great to see another video! Do you plan on doing any soft whisper videos in the future? I miss them quite a bit!
i do soon. hopefully not too far off
Some of these older catalogues and magazines are super fun to peruse. Some crazy stuff in some of them!
Definitely fun to see how the culture has changed
I love the way you think, brother. Thank you for all your hard work.
Totally forgot about u man. Happy to see uback
i love your videos!! the content is so fascinating and i really appreciate the hard work you put into each post. much love 😊
I had a whole box of old life magazines(about 200),ranging from 1941-1986, I had one from ww2 1942!
I love how the first magazine has the phone number with a 325 area code. It's our area code here in Abilene, Texas.
I loved this one!!
“Nooo baby it’s Polyglas😏” always so relaxed watching this never realized you added that bahahaa😂😂😂✋ dyin
lol
Missed you rich, Glad to see your back💙
Another amazing video thank you 🙏
thanks d. really appreciate the support
Isn't chat gpt one of the most astronomical inventions of our time? I'm two decades old, and it's just so fascinating. Really glad to see you back, please post some more vids and insights!
Thanks for the upload. I’m hoping you will put that relaxing background music back in it really helps lull me to sleep along with your relaxing voice
Hello from an Irish astronomy fan 🙋🏻♀️✨💫🌙 🔭🇮🇪
I don't believe the "gone to the moon" talk but your Asmr videos are allways good
Love this video ❤
OMG such nostalgia going on! N64 was my Holy grail! Zelda Ocarina of time was my most favorite I beat it probably over 10 times! Star Fox and golden eye played those in to dust lol, oh yes lol of course Mario world! Awesome video Rich!
In a RiffTrax bridgett and Mary Jo were watching the 1957 industrial film “Life in the Suburbs” and the narrator said “it’s the goingist part of a nation on wheels!” So ‘it’s the going thing’ tracks. I remember my parents and grandparents using it when I was little in the 70s. It just means ‘it’s the latest, most popular going thing’
hm funny how trendy slang evolves
@@LetsFindOut1 They lamented how they never explained what 'the goingist part of a nation on wheels' actually was!
But, riffing aside, it was kind of a fascinating time capsule about the suburbs and the birth of the shopping mall. I think they were just about as far in time from when malls would take off as we are from when they started to die.
Best asmr channel on yt 🙏
Yes!
Love the use of gbt, i hear alot of people using this over Google recently
I know you've mentioned subtly in other videos that you want growth, like any person, but Im so so glad you still do your things! There are a few guys out there who do it similar but not the same, do a collab!
Oh wow, 43:17 - I can't get enough.
I was famous in middle school for owning the first color Palm Pilot!
Can you do more tapping etc..? Really enjoy learning about more books.
thats why there are soo many french people in saint denis (rdr2)
Hope you’re doing well. Always love the videos
thanks ryan we're well. best to you too
He’s back babyyyyyyyyyyyy
Our sub boxes are blessed today
You da best bro💪
33:20 greatest ASMR whisper in the world. Please in the near future when you have time can you create a video with whispers on both the north and south pole.
From Philippines 🇵🇭 buddy
im so early that its stuck at 240p
His back!
This is so cool
Hey ! I hope you are doing well I'm so happy for the new upload it's been a while !
thanks laura. hopefully i'll be uploading alot more frequently this year. thanks for the well wishes
Ok, This guy is really good!
Yaaaay! New video! 😄
No way I have a bunch of moonlanding magazines from my grandparents. I believe I have that one in the thumbnail too
New upload lets go! Hope you’re doing good man! 🙏
Long time no see! I hope you and your family are doing well, Rich.
we're great sb. thanks best to you!
@@LetsFindOut1 Thanks, man.
10:37 who started Woodstock?
Hey hey, I’m loving your videos! I realized that you’re familiar with universe sandbox and was wondering if you’ve ever tried space engine? It has a procedurally generated universe With millions of galaxies each with their own stars and planets. There isn’t many sandbox features like universe sandbox but the visuals are incredibly stunning and it’s very fun to explore.
I hope you can still make some videos from time to time.
Nintendo Power! Wow that takes me back 😅
I think lloyds asmr needs some lessons from a real one.. I'm not hating... just like being entertained without having to wait 45 minutes for him to acknowledge the video is being recorded!!! Much love and respect. Very enjoyable and relaxing
wow just saw he showed a life magazine just recently too. what do you mean about him not acknowledging the recording?
Just being an ignoramus... i am impatient, and would rather just get to the point instead of pretending... BUT, theres nothing wrong with pretending in the world of make believe
LEM stands for Lunar Excursion Module.
Keep spreading science!
Im late to the party but hell yeah another video by the goat himself 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳😴😴😴😴😴😴😴😴😴
you'd be right about nintendo power issue 100 being 1996.
my sister was the cover model for Life's 1999 "state of our schools" issue. she was sitting there, looking sweet at a desk. not 18 months later, crack addict.
laid off this morning, wishing everyone well
sorry to hear that
you should make a video/theory about time travel
Can we please have a whisper video 🥺
❤❤
