In 1966, Ray was three and Craig was two, so how could TV shows debuting that year change their lives? One word: Reruns. Craig and Ray talk about how Star Trek, Mission: Impossible, Batman (and the Batman movie), and The Green Hornet influenced their love of TV and pop culture.

Craig Donofrio and Ray Keating introduce their new podcast – “NeoNostalgia with Craig and Ray” – and tell people why they’re the right guys to get this job done. Beyond their eclectic experiences and knowledge of pop culture from the 40s to the 90s, it turns out that Craig once had a rock band and is a Tiki-head, and Ray was raised by TV reruns (as well as his parents) and got to spout off views as a weekly newspaper columnist for more than 20 years (yes, they paid him). Find out who these guys are, and what they’ve got planned with the “NeoNostalgia” podcast.
