30's and 40's fan here. Why is there so much admiration for those years? Especially in the media. [I'd Rather Get To Know You Than Small Talk]

I like the style and cars.

Much simpler times. No internet. People were friendly. Most politicians were sane. The news stated the facts. Half truths or lies were unacceptable
@Confined That’s not true. There were different biases then.

@Confined :) and, importantly, there were no smart phones and digital cameras to capture the insane politicians or nasty neighbors, nor record the insanity as it was happening and plaster it on You Tube.

Interestingly, a good bit of what I remember well from the 60s seems to have vanished from You Tube and the internet. As if there are political forces cleaning up the footprints :)
