As a 🔌 cord cutter ✂️ I watch the over-the-air channels.

One of those is the Story channel which seems to serve as sort of an Outlet Mall for old History Channel shows

Modern Marvels ©️1994-2004 gets a lot of play on Story..

Not sure if any new episodes were made beyond that but it's informative even though it's outdated.

BlackBerry is touted for its state of the art technology 📟

Tesla the car company was featured in one episode. Of course being from 2004 this was before Elon Musk weaseled his way into the company.

So this story about an Electric ⚡ Car Company startup named Tesla -- with no mention of Elon Musk at all was refreshing.
