The Bus Was Our Internet

Before Google, smartphones, TikTok, and social media, we learned a whole lot about life sitting on a yellow bus. We learned who was dating who, which teacher to watch out for, how to make friends, how to handle conflict, how to deal with embarrassment—and sometimes, things our parents probably wished we’d never learned! 😂

In this episode of Drive Time with Matt, a simple conversation about our kids heading back to school turns into a trip down memory lane. We talk about growing up before the internet, the lessons we learned from the people around us, and how different childhood is for our kids today.

Because the school bus wasn’t just transportation. It was our classroom, our social network, our news feed, and sometimes our survival training.

And maybe life is still a lot like riding the bus. Sometimes you’re on the activity bus. Sometimes you’re wondering how you ended up where you are. Sometimes you just want to get off. But every stop, every person, and every experience teaches us something.

So buckle up, take a ride down memory lane, and remember when the bus was our internet.

🎙️ Drive Time with Matt — Real talk. Real life. Real drive.
