Polaroids were Instagram decades before the internet even existed. Each photo like a mini-painting, a one of a kind picture you could hold in your hand and even be altered to your liking with a little trial and error. This week I dive into exactly how much impact Polaroids have on Pop Culture, and it's a lot more than a line from an Outkast Song. First I go over their history with Christopher Bonanos Author of :Instant: The Story of Polaroid" and City Editor for New York Magazine. Leading me to analyzing an album overflowing with Polaroid Imagery and hidden Nostalgia: Taylor Swifts "1989", leading me to taking a look at what was popular that year with Stingray Alberta North Program Director Gruff Gushnowski.
