The Nostalgia Pit

To quote Sly & The Family Stone: it’s a family affair! You can call us High & The Family Stoned… I’m sorry for that… But seriously, we welcome in two podcast legends around these parts, Drinks w/ Ron and Suey Award winning musician Yeti Blanc!

In this here episode we talk about everything from Dave Matthews, to square dancing to the satanic panic. But that’s not all! We also spelunk a Rolling Stone top 500 song of all time! What song? You’ll have to listen to find out, but I imagine it was one of Ray Kroc’s favorite songs…

You can find Ron on the Half Assed Podcast Network producing such shows as the Outsiders Social Club and Tubi Determined. And you can find Yeti Blanc producing the Greg Cote Show with Greg Cote Podcast as well as his frequent musical numbers on the Dan Le Batard Show w/ Stugotz Podcast.

Four years ago, Yeti made a parody song for the show called the Fine Song, and now his songs get played on the show almost daily. Stay tuned til the end of the episode to hear Yeti Blanc’s origin story in the form of the Fine Song.

What do Buffalo Bill, Norman Bates, and Leatherface all have in common? They are based on the same depraved individual, that’s what! That individual is one of the most fascinating and depraved figures in modern human history: none other than Ed Gein. 

An incredibly maladjusted individual, Gein was known just as much for his upholstery as his crimes… Needless to say, this episode may be the darkest we’ve covered yet.

But we just slip into darkness here at the Pit, we don’t live in it. So we also talk alpha males, egalitarianism, and boobs. Hifalutin stuff, here at the Pit… What can I say?

This week, I only have one question for you: how you Dune?! That’s right! It’s time for Rob’s Reviews: Arrakis Edition featuring a SPOILER HEAVY assessment from both our hosts. If you haven’t seen the new Dune and don’t want any spoilers, than you may want to keep an ear out and skip that part…

But that’s not all we talk about! We talk Tim Burton’s catalog of work, female rappers, and unicorn migration. Plus! Rob tells us of his competition days as well as Kanye’s teeth!

Guess who’s back?! Back Again… Kristi’s back. Tell your friends. Guess who’s back. Yes he’s back. Kristi’s back. Buh duh duh… That’s right! The Don of Denim has returned to The Pit to talk turtles, Corey Feldman, and the evolution of going viral. We also discuss the concept of art “holding up” and what that means in a world with ever changing ideals. 

But that’s not all! Kristi highlights one of his favorite video games of all time: What Became of Edith Finch. We also talk Morrisey, stunt people, and the dulcet tones of Jordan Peterson.

Snack Attack is back, baby! That’s right! It’s time to get depressed, because we’re going to analyze some strange concoctions that the most poverty stricken era of our country left behind. All I can say now is: some things are not greater than the sum of their parts…

But that’s not all! We look into what some refer to as America’s Stonehenge: the Georgia Guidestones. What are they? Who built them? What is their purpose? We answer all these questions and more!

Have you ever laid awake at night pondering life’s most important questions? I know I have… The other night, I couldn’t fall asleep as I lay there wondering what God’s voice sounded like. Well, consider that question answered on this week’s episode.

Besides pondering the vocal tones of deities, we talk dopamine, pho, and Superman. Plus! Kevin details his recent living situation and why he needs to get the hell out immediately.

I’ve always heard the phrase “a picture is worth a thousand words” – but I don’t think I fully understood the validity of this statement until now. Get ready for our bi-weekly analysis of Kevin’s background image with a very special guest! None other than the illustrious Ultraviolet Queen herself: Kayla Newell!! 

That is correct, you may remember Kayla from the Ruining Your Childhood days of season one, where we talked about a plethora of things… But we wanted to bring her back into the new format, and I will say, she crushes it as always.

Besides talking butthole tattoos, wine coolers, and the magnum opus of the yarl (Even Flow by Pearl Jam), we learn of the seedy intersection between the beloved Celestial Tea and extraterrestrials. That’s right. Alien tea. I’m thirsty…

Have you ever made a nice, homemade bowl of your favorite something? Mac n cheese... Chicken noodle soup... Dumplings... Or maybe you don't do "home" made; a bowl of your favorite something is Kraft Dinner, or some Spaghetti-O's... Regardless, have you ever looked down at your bowl of probably gelatinous cuisine and thought to yourself, "this could really use some gold leaf..."

Well, this week, we talk the utterly superfluous gold burger, Rob's expensive dinner date, and neoliberalism. Kevin also talks to us about the new novel he's reading called The Three Body Problem. SPOILER ALERT! We talk some plot points and such. Nothing too egregious, but still... Warning.

Today we welcome in the mastermind behind Cold Waffle Studio: Tyler Rickshaw! You’d think that because we have two animators in the house we’d talk cartoons, comics, drawing… Something of that nature… Right?!?

Nope. We talk about songs you hate by artists you love, eunuchs, and life in the rural south. We also chat about Hollywood’s most polite racists, Persian folklore, and the acting prowess of Ludacris. Plus! Colin reveals one of his real life redflags! All that, and more!

And make sure you stay tuned til the very end for a sneak preview of MADSHROOM MC's newest album: Therapy. Coming out later this year, this is the only place you can hear the lead single entitled Hands of Time.

What to say about this week’s show… All I can say is, the content really piles up. Some could even say, it’s hard to contain our overflowing bounty of topics. Besides skipping between crystal hippies, atrocity insulation, and philosophers, there may or may not be quite a bit of dung talk…

All apologies on the front end, but what happens when you’re stranded in a small house in the woods with no running water, working plumbing, or company besides a Norwegian forest cat and a rabbit? I could have just ripped the name of the 1995 Jim Carrey film and called this episode “When Nature Calls” – but no, it would be a shame to do that.
