Welcome to the Retrologists Podcast.

Since March 2020 The Retrologists, hosted by PJ Hermann and Danny Underwood, have been live streaming their shenanigans. From engaging discussions of pop culture and "constructive arguments" to hosting a myriad of different personalities and celebrities to discuss their creative crafts and the random tangents that ensue.

In this episode, the hosts celebrate four years of live streaming by launching their content as an official podcast. They reflect on their journey from initial plans to the spontaneous, community-driven format that evolved. From there they hit their feelings on a few movies and TV they have been watching and their thoughts on AI generated search results, and songs...

We are a community of creatives that get together for special live streams and activities, and we invite you to join our discord to join the discussion and even join us on a show.
