Nostalgia Blinded episodes
- Nostalgia Blinded 13: Tony Hawk is an AnimorphPoor Nick. No one will believe his story. I mean, I don’t believe it either, who would, but I still feel bad for him, ya know? This week, Acid Drop that needle on the Nicks talking about Tony Hawk Proskater 1!59 min
- Nostalgia Blinded 0-rigins: Ms. Pacpacmanman
We decided to dig into Nostalgia Blinded's very small vault to bring you the first trial episode we recorded! We're definitely trying to find our sea legs, but we're doing what we usually do: laughing at Crossover Events of the Century and making sex jokes about beloved video game characters. This week, the Nicks do an a-maze-ing job talking about Pac-Man World 2!

41 min - Nostalgia Blinded 12: What's New, Nick & Nick?There’s actually a really compact and on-topic Nostalgia Blinded ep in the first half of this one, and you’re completely in your right to bail before the Nicks begin shouting about “Scoob!”. Of course, that would make you a coward, and I know you’re not a coward dear listener. Not only are you not a coward, but you actively WANT to hear about Yogi Bear finally snapping. I may be projecting a bit. This week, those meddlin’ Nicks solve yet another podcasting mystery by talking about Scooby-Doo!Follow Andy Huber (@yafroglog on Instagram) for amazing art stuff!Follow Nick and the Leg-Heavy Boys (@nickandthelegheavyboys on Instagram, Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, and TikTok) for amazing music stuff!If you’re looking for anti-racism sources and have the means to help out both Black Lives Matter and the AAPI community, you can find them at these links!https://linktr.ee/blacklivesmatterhttps://linktr.ee/aapisolidarity1 hr 8 min
- Nostalgia Blinded 11: Amy Conney Barret’s Acting Debut
This episode is a wild one folks. We find out that Over the Hedge is a Gemini and things just kind of devolve from there, all culminating in a pitch for potentially the most problematically progressive movie of all time. Also, just know that in our future movie pitches, we'll be trying to stick as close to the Drake & Josh Law as we possibly can. This week, the Nicks go Hedge Over heels for Over the Hedge!

1 hr 4 min - Nostalgia Blinded 10: Carl Wiizer’s WorldSo I know the Nicks aren’t always the most focused in their discussions, but this time it’s warranted. The ritual of making Mii’s is an integral side track before booting up Wii Sports. And the 5 minutes they spent talking about Guy Fieri? Well, they’re only human.This wiik, the Nicks would like to talk to you about Wii Sports!Follow Andy Huber (@yafroglog on Instagram) for amazing art stuff!Follow Nick and the Leg-Heavy Boys (@nickandthelegheavyboys on Instagram, Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, and TikTok) for amazing music stuff!If you’re looking for anti-racism sources and have the means to help out Black Lives Matter, you can find them at this link! https://linktr.ee/blacklivesmatter1 hr 15 min
- Nostalgia Blinded 9: Duck 1984
Listen, a lot of people have taken to calling these modern YA stories “dystopias.” Beastars. Zootopia. Trolls. But those of us who know real literature know that the real dystopias are classics like Sitting Ducks. The razor-sharp satire. The nuance. The metaphor of predation between alligators and ducks as it applies to actual carnivorous predation, economic predation, and maybe also sexual predation, and the horrifying way the wool is pulled over a million duck eyes. And that’s not even to mention the essential and oft-overlooked role of chickens in the final pages. And the nuance? I did mention the nuance, didn’t I? This week, the Nicks read way too much into a children’s picture book called Sitting Ducks!

43 min - Nostalgia Blinded 8: AU Fanfiction (Arboreal Universe Fanfiction)
In the course of recording this episode, we learned that Rick Riordan is actually really good about inclusion and social justice in his books, which is great! But if you ask me, fanfiction is the only place where we can absolutely guarantee proper rep-trees-entation. In my new Percy Jackson fic, everyone is a tree just like Thalia, a real character in Percy Jackson who spends most of one of the books as a tree. I’ve got gay trees, bi trees, pan trees—endless shipping possibilities! And I don’t mean that someone comes and chops down the trees to make a ship out of them, though that also happens. This week, the Nicks hurl themselves into a discussion about Percy Jackson!

1 hr 17 min - Nostalgia Blinded 7: Nick the Hedgehog is Not Weak
Well, it’s happening folks. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 the Movie. Another episode where we’re actually topical. It feels weird, ya know? But do stick around to the end, I promise we go back to being off topic in a pretty Big way. This week, the Nicks speed through a discussion about Sonic the Hedgehog so they can get to what is really important.

53 min - Nostalgia Blinded 6: GameStop Greg’s Glamor Charm
The one time an episode is about something remotely relevant, we decide the best thing to do is to spend 30 minutes talking about GameStop Greg. We are unsure of the full range of his ancient Eldritch powers - so far he’s just really good at getting you to sign up for the GameStop Powerup Rewards program. This week, the Nicks power up their podcast by talking about GameStop!

50 min - Nostalgia Blinded 5: Gmarco “Gnasty” Guhgrubio, Our Bully
You’d think Gmarco Guhgrubio would’ve been too busy with his Speaker of the House duties to bully two seven year olds, but you’d be wrong. And he’d be scattered on the ground in millions of crystalline pieces. This week, the Nicks head charge into the non-impactful world of Spyro the purple dragon and all his friends!

About Nostalgia Blinded
From the publisher's feed
Do you ever wake up in the middle of the night and think, "God, remember Zoo Pals?"
Welcome to Nostalgia Blinded, the show where two best friends with the same first name take a rose-tinted look at the media of the past! Join Nick and Nick every week(ish) as they foolishly attempt to curtail the never-ceasing flow of time by talking about cancelled TV shows and ill-conceived commercials, video games from before Instagram existed, overlong book series that probably have a whole bunch of problematic stuff in them, and albums that your parents think are totally cool.
