About Artifacts: Stories from the Emotional History of the Internet
Artifacts is a storytelling podcast about the technology, media, and digital culture we've left behind, and the feelings that remain. Each episode begins with a familiar artifact - a burned CD, a dial-up modem, a movie rental store, a family computer, a paper map - and unfolds into a story about memory, identity, creativity, belonging, curiosity, and the experiences we still carry with us today. This isn't just a show about old technology. It's about the people who grew up alongside it. Hosted by award-winning podcaster Danny Brown, Artifacts blends personal storytelling, cultural history, and thoughtful reflection to explore why some of the most ordinary objects became the milestones of our lives. Because sometimes the objects fade, but the feeling doesn't.

[…] The software box you couldn't wait to bring home. The camera that took terrible photographs but somehow made you want to take hundreds of them. Some of those things disappeared because something better came along. Some were simply unlucky. And some were actually pretty great but somehow never got the chance to become the future. That's where we're going in Season 3 of Artifacts. I'll be looking at the Zune, the mini-disc, laser disc, the Game Boy Camera, choose your own adventure books, and some other pieces of technology and culture that might have disappeared from our everyday lives, but never quite disappeared from our memories. […]
