Story time: I was the spy-kid generation. We had team-VS-team matches with friends, but often we'd just spy on our family. We were using a periscope and listening device to try and see what out parents were up to... In their bedroom... At night... My dad kindly asked us not to spy on "mommy and daddy when they were alone". I asked why, and he told answered "Well... what if we're wrapping birthday presents?". I didn't know how close I was to spying something that could only be erased with years of therapy.

Back when wireless home phones where first coming out (I.e Phones that lets you talk over the landline wireless with a base station... you probably knew that lol) but in the beginning the home phones transmission was unencrypted. If you knew the frequency they transmitted on. You could tune in and listen to the conversation. Both ways. later on they started to encrypt the phones. But. This also worked on drive way fast food speakers. Being able to speak in a drive through speaker caused much fun. Wikipedia has a lot on this in a article. It’s pretty neat.

I can't put into words just how influential the early 2000's "spy" obsession was for my childhood and the person I was. I had my bedroom alarmed and booby trapped. My friends and I would meet up in hideouts and discuss things we found, or ideas we had about the neighborhood. When we couldn't afford or weren't allowed the fancy toys, we made our own. High tech digital communicators and ID badges made from cardboard (none of us had any cellphones at all). Secret weapons made of planks of wood and industrial scrap.

I think I've read instances of this, or it could just be kid marketing that's still in my brain. either way celebrities and athletes were definitely used as spies in other countries a lot. And adults seem to forget that kids can't comprehend or know anything about the adult world. Either way there was at least one movie if I could ever find the name of it where a group of kids sold a toy model plans for a us submarine ( think some sort of country like Russia possibly with a different name to protect the innocent ) to raise money as well as putting a concert on for their sick teacher. I would love to re-watch as an adult because it made my parents cringe and squeamish during the teen love scenes ... in the bathtub..... Kissy Kissy talk about relationships just so we're clear.

We would raid Targets, Toys R Us, and buy booster boxes and use the device to pull all the foils. For the booster boxes, we would get all the foils and sell the other packs. Good times.

I'm telling you, there was something deeply weird about how those novels were written but I can't find any sources about it to confirm this.

PSYCH TASTY I remember a bit because I picked one up at a local public library when I was a kid and started to skim through it when I grew disgusted with its lackluster writing and horrific narrative structure (or lack thereof). Their long irrelevant tangents, an illogical spy organization that employed children and adults, and the antagonist was really forgettable. The characters were all flat and the twists were blunt and shit. At one point, one of the teens/young adults the kids are working with just turns to one of the kids just as they are starting their mission and say “By the way, turns out we’re cousins” and the kid goes “Cool” before they fist bump and continue on with the mission without any explanation or pondering the event. Seriously, the books sucked and felt like they were written by an unpaid freshman high school intern who’d never passed a single literature class and the company executives forced them to do the job or they’d go back to cleaning up the bathrooms on Chili Dog Fridays. Now I have to live every day remembering that shitty scene and fist bump. Ugh...

I was a kid in the ‘80s and although the brand Spy Gear didn’t exist, we did have spy kits like this. My favorite thing, which wasn’t necessarily a “spy accessory”, was this alarm that had a loop and you would hang it from a doorknob. Then it had a dead man’s switch attached you would slide between the door and the jamb...so if anyone opened the door, it would let out this ungodly noise. My parents loved it.

We used to play bomb squad with the motion detector spy gear. It was like hide and seek where one person set up all the “bombs” in hidden areas likely to cause them to be activated and the other person would enter the room and try to “diffuse” them by turning them off without setting off the alarm. It was probably one of if not the most inventive and fun game of my childhood and young teen years as the older we got, the more intricate the game became. Especially when we would turn off all the lights in a room and have to use flashlights.

Me and my friends had some jumps made for our bmx bikes and i took a sewer pipe to the gut. I thought it was lame until that happened. Very interesting how you had to program phone numbers. You can only do a select few too. Please do a video on the Firefly as i was too young to fully understand what i was dealing with and i'd like to learn more.
