EP87: Old School Kicks, 90s Daytime Talk Show Hosts and the Toughest NBA Players Back in the Day

EP86: Top 5 TMNT Retro Games, Iconic Champion Jerseys, The Mixtape CD, and Movie Theater Nostalgia

This week on the pod, we break down Adam Sandler’s top five movies of the ’90s and take a deep dive into the Menace II Society soundtrack. We also spotlight the iconic film Stand By Me for the Walkbuster Movie Club, reminisce about our first jobs, and talk about how groundbreaking GTA Radio was for gaming. Plus, we get into the pain of buying a new game and forcing yourself to like it, the legendary Miss Cleo, N64 kiosk stations at McDonald’s, and a wildly nostalgic World of Nintendo ad from a Toys “R” Us catalog. Fit checks, fan mail, retro card of the week, and mailbags were all fire—as usual.

On this episode of the podcast, we debuted our brand new segment, Keepin’ It Retro, and kicked it off in a major way with our first guest, Taboo Nawtasha of the Black Eyed Peas, the Grammy Award–winning hip hop group. Taboo was the perfect choice to launch the segment. We dug into everything from his toy and sneaker collections to his latest projects, including working alongside his daughter on Dora the Explorer, the possibility of new Black Eyed Peas music, and his brand new podcast, Taboo’s Comics and Kicks. It was an incredible conversation, and we couldn’t have asked for a better way to introduce Keepin’ It Retro.

On this Christmas episode, we went all in on the holiday vibes. We talked about the Top 5 movie villains of all time and ran through a jam packed Christmas nostalgia themed This or That. We shared memories of driving around looking at Christmas lights and showed love to Kmart layaway for being the real MVP of single mom Christmases. We debated real trees versus fake trees and laughed about those vintage outdoor Christmas decorations that could survive an apocalypse. We discussed our favorite Christmas gifts, coal in the stocking, classic Discord Drops, and Method Man and Redman’s Blackout! album. The Super Retro Hotline was on fire, Fit Checks were next level, and as always, we covered a ton more.
