A toilet paper holder… with a radio?

Back in the day, this was the pinnacle of bathroom luxury—a toilet paper holder that played the radio while you did your business! Remember sitting there, tuning in to the morning news or your favourite tunes? The sound wasn’t perfect—you often had to lean in to hear properly—but it was better than nothing.

And get this—some of them even worked as walkie-talkies! Talk about high-tech home gadgets.
