What is it about nostalgia that makes us feel so warm inside, even if just for a moment? In this episode, we dive into the bittersweet pull of nostalgia and what makes it so powerful. We explore the fine line between that fleeting, heartstring-tugging feeling we all love or "nostalgia bait," where the well gets tapped so often it starts to run dry. From movies to video games, we break down how media uses nostalgia, when it works, and when it becomes too much of a good thing.
