We trade stories about the objects and memories that pull us back, from a WWII razor set lost in a dice game to the stubborn hunt for an Atari Lynx. One of us keeps nothing, one of us keeps everything, and the argument lands on what nostalgia is really worth.

• sounds, smells, and simple triggers for memory
• the WWII cigarette trades and the seven-day razor set
• collecting rules and finding treasures in the wild
• Atari Lynx, Game Gear, and retro prices that shock
• Crash Test Dummies as joy machines built to break
• chromies, hood ornaments, and small-town heists
• storage costs, nine fridges, and the burden of stuff
• travel versus things and the price of experiences
• what we would actually pay to buy the past back

God damn it, give us a rating and review, please. We need like four more to be rated on a podcast that makes sense

We turn a routine elevator ride into a raw story about claustrophobia, control, and the messy, human way real rescues happen. Humor keeps us afloat, but the takeaway lands hard: trust your gut, know the exits, and don’t be afraid to choose the stairs.

• the moment the elevator dies and the buttons fail
• calling for help, waiting, and managing panic in the dark
• myths and truths about cables, counterweights, and safety
• getting stuck between floors and why doors won’t open
• improvising a rescue through the ceiling hatch
• how humor breaks fear’s grip without denying it
• lessons on preparation, patience, and choosing stairs

Take the stairs because you’re way safer. It’s more exercise and makes your heart safe and your body safe. So just do it
