#84 - The History of America Online (AOL).

Send us Fan MailThank you for tuning in!  On today's episode we are taking a trip back to the 80s/90s to learn about the history of America Online (later AOL).  America Online was the brainchild of Steve Case, a man who knew that this internet "stuff" was going to get big and he wanted to build community via the internet.  You'll learn about what led up to America Online's development, the company's surge to the top of the technology field, and it's ultimate crash and burn.  AOL was the first exposure my sister and I had to the internet so it seems only fitting to do a show all about it!Thank you to everyone who reminisced with me about your old AOL screen names! Please tell your family and friends about the show!  You can send them to my podcast website:   https://www.popcultureretrospective.com/Support the showVisit:  https://www.popcultureretrospective.com/ for all things Pop Culture Retrospective!Listen to the show, along with several other retro-inspired podcasts, and music from the '80s and '90s on the Q106.5 app (or website)!  Follow me on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/popcultureretrospective/ Follow me on Twitter!: https://twitter.com/PopCultureRetroReview the show! https://www.popcultureretrospective.com/reviews/new/Pop Culture Retrospective Merch!: https://pop-culture-retrospective-pod.myspreadshop.com/allEmail me anytime: [email protected]
