May 04, 202065. Legends of the Hidden TempleThe year is 1993. The reign of Family Double Dare, the inheritor of classic Double Dare's legacy for the previous three years, is coming to an end. And so, Nickelodeon brings forth a new competitive game show, equal part genius and horrifying in design: Legends of the Hidden Temple. This show was a well-oiled disappointment machine, with about 3/4ths of its 120 episodes ending with the failure of desperately striving children. And Chris watched a lot of it — does this say something about our intrepid host?...more1h 11minPlay
April 14, 202064. GI JoeKevin takes the reins for a look back at the 80's cartoon classic G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero, a show which to some people's surprise (Chris) does not feature an individual character named Joe! There's a bunch of them apparently, and they're ready to face off against the nefarious warlord and subliminal messaging expert Cobra Commander....more1h 37minPlay

Will Cloud unify the fractured corners of his mind? Will Sephiroth be stopped? And will we ever truly comprehend the infinite mystery of Pandora's Box? ...more2h 10minPlay
March 30, 202062. Final Fantasy VII (Part One)With perhaps the most hotly anticipated video game remake ever about to drop, Chris decided it was time for Kevin to finally take a journey he never had before: Final Fantasy 7, the iconic 1997 RPG that enchanted, thrilled, and devastated millions of gamers. Cloud, Tifa, Aeris, Sephiroth, all of them! The whole gang's here. And this one's a deluxe two-parter....more2h 22minPlay
March 16, 202061. Darby O'Gill and the Little PeopleThree-time returning guest Miranda joins Kevin and Chris for a look back at a film all three of them saw as wee ones ― Darby O'Gill and the Little People, a tale of leprechauns, drunken revelry, warmly lit Irish whimsy, generous pension programs, and a young Sean Connery brawling with a guy named Pony. Just watch out for the death coach....more1h 26minPlay
March 02, 202060. Double DareOn your marks, get set, go! It's time for Double Dare, the classic Nickelodeon game show that made Marc Summers a household name. Join Chris and Kevin as they revisit a trio of episodes: Swatches vs. Headrooms (1986), Out of the Blue vs. The Vulcans (1988), and an episode of Family Double Dare, The Whitehouse Crew vs. Gross Gladiators (1990). ...more1h 20minPlay
February 17, 202059. Return to OzKevin and Chris are joined by Hollywood Crime Scene's Rachel Fisher for a deep dive into 1985's surprisingly macabre Return to Oz, starring the strikingly haunted-looking Fairuza Balk as Dorothy Gale. From electroshock therapy, to a clockwork soldier, to a jack-o-lantern with mommy issues, to a head-thieving witch, you're not in Judy Garland's Oz anymore. Ray Bolger ain't walking through that door. Also, they replaced Toto with a sassy southern chicken....more1h 36minPlay
February 05, 202058. Sonic The Hedgehog (Saturday Morning Cartoon)Kevin and Chris are joined by returning guest Sean Hurlburt, mere days before the release of the brand new Sonic The Hedgehog movie, to revisit the 1993 Saturday morning animated series starring the lil' blue speedster himself. Fair warning: you probably can't run as fast as Sonic, even after he's absolutely gorged himself sick on chili dogs....more1h 6minPlay
January 23, 202057. Logan's RunDo you ever feel like your clock is running out? You intrepid hosts have surely never felt this way. But this time, Kevin is revisiting a childhood favorite that is decidedly preoccupied with mortality ― Logan's Run, starring Michael York, the doctor from Darkman who explains the Rangeveritz Technique, and a guy who looks like a young Christopher Hitchens (albeit surprisingly, much less attractive)!...more1h 17minPlay
January 08, 202056. Super Baseball 2020Don't look now, but this stately little podcast has now spanned two decades! To celebrate, Kevin and Chris ring in the new year by looking back at the SNES version of Super Baseball 2020, a video game which serves up an uncompromising, tech-infused vision of America's national pastime. And yes, there are baseball-playing robots!...more44minPlay
