Are We Old Podcast episodes

  • AI, Smart Phone addiction & “Cheers”
    Mike and Charles dive into the future or maybe the present as they talk about AI taking over, our national addiction to our phones, and why the cast of Cheers had more real human connection than most of us do today. It’s nostalgia meets technology, with a side of side-eye.

  • Harlem Globtrotters & Inspector Gadget
    Charles and Mike take it back to the days of the Harlem Globetrotters spinning basketballs on their fingers, gym floors that smelled like rubber and popcorn, and Inspector Gadget saving the world with literal Swiss-Army limbs. From squeaky sneakers to stretchy trench coats, this episode is all about the weird, wonderful world of old-school entertainment when sports were showtime and cartoons had actual theme songs.

  • Thriller Turns 40: Scary Movies and Sweet Potato vs Pumpkin Pie!
    In this episode of Are We Old?, Charles and Mike moonwalk down memory lane to revisit Michael Jackson’s Thriller—the song, the video, and why it still gives us chills every Halloween. Then they dive into the spooky world of scary movies, debating which ones aged like fine wine and which ones just look like bad wigs and ketchup. And finally, it’s the ultimate seasonal showdown: Sweet Potato Pie vs. Pumpkin Pie. Lines will be drawn, feelings will be hurt, and somebody’s grandma’s recipe might get disrespected.

  • 🦖 90s Bops, Dinosaurs & Nap Time Wisdom
    This week on Are We Old? we’re time traveling back to the 90s to debate the top music artists who had us glued to our Walkmans, reliving the glory (and chaos) of the TV show Dinosaurs, and breaking down why naps went from childhood punishment to grown-folk luxury. If you ever fell asleep with headphones on or still hear “Not the Mama!” in your head, this one’s for you.

  • Back to School, Trapper Keepers & Box Office Time Travel
    Charles and Mike crack open the nostalgia vault on this week’s Are We Old? First stop: back-to-school memories, when Trapper Keepers were basically iPhones with Velcro. Then, they put their questionable memory skills to the test by guessing the top 5 highest-grossing movies of the 1980s. Did they nail it? Did they embarrass themselves? Either way, you’ll feel like you just got dropped off at the mall food court circa 1987.
