Slip and slides, Super Soakers, box fans, snow cones, and swimming pools. We relive the ways we used to stay cool as kids on hot summer days in this week's podcast. What's you're favorite way to stay cool? (Not that we're saying you're not...cool...)

The  1990s and early 2000s were the golden age for hidden tracks on CDs. Some were just extra songs, some were ways to sneak things past people, some were there just to mess with fans, and some took some serious work to actually find for the first time. We reminisce about some of the hidden tracks that stick out in our memories in this week's podcast. what was the last album you bought that had a hidden track?

We know they they censored the blood in in the home release of Mortal Kombat, we know they never had an actual "nude code" for Tomb Raider, and we know that some countries just don't want games where you kill people, but censorship has been a big part of videos games since (almost) day 1. This week we take a look at some of the games that had big changes made in them them because of strict content policies, a lot of which I had no idea about. Some of them seem pretty ridiculous and some are pretty legit.

Do VHS tapes deserve a renaissance? Vinyl had one, cassettes are trying to have one, could the nostalgic draw of VHS tapes be enough to start another marketing gimmick to bring a little bit of the 80s and 90s back to life? We discuss in this week's podcast.

With the release of the teaser trailer for phase four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, we were all able to get excited about the next few years of Marvel movies in the works, and the very last graphic in that teaser gives us the Fantastic Four logo. We discuss what the future may hold for the franchise, despite a few previous lackluster efforts at the box office. We also talk a bit about casting, who do YOU think should play the roles of the Fantastic Four?

People have always made music. They've also been making music about all kinds of 'taboo' or 'inappropriate' subject matter. Some are just better at cleverly hiding it, or working it in with wordplay and innuendo. From folks burning records in the 60s, to music censorship, radio edits, and the explicit content label. There has been a battle over 'decency' in music for years. I find it hilarious that some of the people that make the biggest stink about it (Music kids listen to to these days is just plain disgusting!) often have a library of songs they love that probably have some darker meanings they don't even know about. We talk about some of the dirtiest songs in music history that may have snuck past the censors.

With the opening on Super Nintendo World in Japan, we got to thinking about theme parks. Will things like The Wizarding World of Harry Potter and Super Nintendo World lead to even more fandoms getting their own theme parks? (As opposed to the most marketable fandoms getting their logos slapped on a re-tooled ride at Universal Studios?) We can only hope. We talk about the good and bad about some of these parks, and ask a very important question: What fandom do YOU think should have it's own theme park/world?

From the humble beginnings of the kid's meal at Burger Chef in 1973, to the launch of the McDonald's Happy Meal in 1978, kid's meals at fast food restaurant almost always added a little magic to your meal.

With the release of the (eventual) release of The Justice League's Snyder Cut we got to thinking about all the different movies that have had 'director's cuts', 'alternate editions', 'extended cuts', and the like. Some of them are amazing, some of them are awful, and some of them make us question why one version or the other was even released. Check out this week's podcast, and join the conversation in the comments or on social media. (@getgeekish)
