A short excerpt from a YouTube conversation (TJ Walker and another speaker) illustrating the contrast between memorable personal anecdotes (e.g., an iPhone/iPod image story) and forgettable PowerPoint presentations. The speakers argue that storytelling (images and merged memories) creates lasting recall, whereas slide decks are quickly forgotten.

And he had a cell phone. He says, you know what this was an ipod. What are we doing here today?
He merged.
The two images together for.
The iPhone. That's many.
Many, many years ago.
But I can still remember it. Chances are you can, too. And yet, a PowerPoint presentation I might have seen yesterday or that you might have seen this morning, it's instantly forgotten.
Because words.
Are abstractions. Human memory can understand abstractions.
