Description

Before caller ID, every ring was a mystery — your grandma, your crush, or a prank call asking if your refrigerator was running. In this nostalgic Smile Drops episode, Heather Holt takes a funny, heartfelt look back at rotary phones, twisty cords, and the days when answering the phone meant real connection (and maybe a little chaos).


Rediscover the humor and heart of simpler times, when we actually picked up the phone instead of screening it.
