“It’s So Tasty, Too!” (#81)
As much as I enjoyed discovering The Mary Tyler Moore Show in our Nick At Nite episode, there was a clear winner in the Classic TV Comedienne category, a clear consensus pick — and that’s Lucy. In my eyes, Lucille Ball is one of the greatest entertainers of all time, if not the greatest. And […]

Hello, friends! In the latest episode of When We Were Young, we are sitting on the sofa, there’s a TV in the corner, we are watching Major Nelson… and Mary, Lucy, Samantha, Herman, Horshack, and Sergeant Joe Friday, too. Does the phrase “Bewitched Be-Wednesdays” ring a bell? If so, you may remember that the mid-90s […]

Even back in the mid-90s, The X-Files opening credits sequence was terrible. It looked like something I could have put together myself on a PC. But it gets a pass because of Mark Snow’s ultra-iconic theme music, easily one of the best (and most recognizable) themes of all time. Nothing could possibly set the spooky, […]

I have nothing against The X-Files. Trust me. I wanted to believe. I enjoyed the series when I first caught up with it in reruns on FX in the mid-90s. I kept up with it as new episodes aired on Fox for a season or two. I was a reasonably big fan of the 1998 […]

If you thought this podcast was done discussing everyone’s favorite gang of pubescent crime fighting reptiles, we’ve got news for you! Less than a year after the first TMNT movie did some major league butt-kicking at the box office, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret Of The Ooze offered a second helping of Leonardo, […]

The world’s most fearsome podcast team unleashes its most tubular episode yet, diving deep into the mythos of those lean, green phenoms of yore, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. First, we check out the comic book where it all began, discussing how a black-and-white spoof aimed at adults became one of the most popular children’s […]

Over the course of this podcast, we’ve revisited many pop culture juggernauts — some bad, some good, perhaps none quite as baffling as ABC’s T.G.I.F. lineup.

This episode of the podcast made me feel like a grouch.

“I used to live in a burning building. And it was cheap! It was Charlie’s and my first house. Scoff if you must, but it was warm and toasty. I’ll never forget Charlie throwing me over his shoulder and dashing across the threshold… oh, it was a beautiful place. Three bedrooms, two baths. Then two […]

“Can you play ‘Jingle Bells’?” (Schroeder plays “Jingle Bells.”) “No, no. I mean ‘Jingle Bells’! Deck them halls and all that stuff?” (Schroeder plays “Jingle Bells.”) “No, no. You don’t get it at all. I mean ‘Jingle Bells’! You know, Santa Claus and ho-ho-ho and mistletoe and presents to pretty girls?” (Schroeder plays “Jingle Bells.”) […]
