8-Track to cassette adapters - they worked shockingly well!

Howdy howdy!

Today I'm bringing you a video on one of my favorite things: an adapter which actually allows you to play a media format in a machine which plays an entirely different format. I learned about these things probably back in high school and filed them away for a throwaway video. As usual, I went a little overboard...

I was going to write that there's a chance I'd have to re-edit this as I'm temping the copyright gods with some of the sound samples I've used - well I have already had to do that! But the Patreon version is the original. Honestly I have no idea what Patreon's copyright practices are - perhaps we'll find out together! But other than some of the samples being shortened/changed the versions are identical. It's possible I'll have to make more changes later but it looks good so far.

I'm not gonna be able to do captions until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest, so my apologies there. But I'll get them done ASAP. Thanks, everyone!
