The 90s and 2000s were a lawless time.

In this episode, we go through the most unhinged things from the 90s and early 2000s that would never survive in 2026. Problematic ads, questionable kids’ toys, toxic trends, wild celebrity behavior, and media that definitely wouldn’t make it past a pitch meeting today.

Some of it’s funny. Some of it’s shocking. Some of it makes us deeply uncomfortable. All of it makes us ask: who approved this?!

What’s something so small it shouldn’t work… but somehow fixes everything? In this episode of Mentally Tabbed Out, we’re talking about the tiny, everyday things that instantly make us happy — the cold side of the pillow, a song that hits just right, a smell that brings back a memory, or a random moment that makes you smile for no reason.

The holidays have a way of pulling memories to the surface.

We also take a moment to look ahead to the New Year: what we’re letting go of, what we’re holding onto, and how we’re approaching resolutions with a little more intention and a lot less guilt.

The holidays are meant for warmth, family, and comfort — which is exactly why true crime cases tied to this time of year feel especially haunting.

In this Episode;Homicide for the Holidays, the Mentally Tabbed Out crew revisits one of the most infamous cases in true crime history, JonBenét Ramsey, alongside the tragically overlooked case of Jonelle Matthews, a child whose disappearance during the holidays faded from public conversation for decades, along with other Holiday true crime cases.
