...sound like they're on a old cassette tape that's not only lo-fi, but warped and coming in and out of speed/ tune.
I don't know what to use to do this. I've tried saturation but that's not it.

What program are you using?
In Ableton you can automate tempo, that would be how I would do it, automate the tempo in funky ways and use saturation and light bitcrushing.

i would advice the same but you could use melodyne to warp and detune. after that lofi it... but still use the real shit for this. It gives alot more shit... It's nomore 1's and 0's, but hardware shit no calculations or whatever

Digging up a badly-enough-degraded tape machine would be as much work as just finding the right VST.
BTW I run Logic, & pretty much all Native Instruments' software. If I've got it, but not searching the right place... let me know.

finding a old tape recorder is the easy way and best way.

i used to do bad things to the tapes I wanted to process. Would microwave them for short bursts, put them in water and then let them dry in the sun, tried some powerful magnets on them, all kinds of stuff, but I had much better results messing with the tape machine itself instead of the tapes.

You won't find one.
