Oddity Archive: Episode 53 - U-Matic (or, How I Spent My Summer)
While everybody else was going on vacation and stuff, Ben (perhaps unsurprisingly) locked himself away and attempted to restore a vintage U-Matic 3/4" VCR (plus dealing with other technical hindrances). The feel-good episode of the year! Visit our website at http://www.theoddityarchive.com (merchandise available--still) Social Media: Facebook: / oddityarchive Twitter: @oddityarchive
