TCM shows these occasionally. Called "Behind the Eight Ball" the all have a "So you ..." theme. "So You Want to Quit Smoking", "So You Want to Hold Your Wife" (I wanted to hold my ex wife's head under water but I digress), "So You Want to Be in Politics", 60+ in all. Damn, they were clever. "So you Want a Model Railroad" was a howl. It must have been fun to go to the movies in the 50's and see quality stuff like this, the cartoon, the newsreels. Now you mortgage your house to see some CGI crap and 100+ people looking at their phones.
Anybody else like these?

Yes, they are quite enjoyable. I had a friend who was a film collector back in 1970. He had several of these on 35mm rfilm and would include them in private showings with features and cartoons.
Here is "So You Want a Model Railroad"...
