WHAT'S UP 2023!!! Dan & Manny welcome the new year by answering your questions. This episode is so random, so tangent-filled, and so classic Nostalgia Test Podcast that you'll be begging for more. They talk WWE wrestling music and superstars, living in a movie or TV show, comparing the Back to the Future DeLorean to Bill and Ted's phonebooth, who they'd cast in the infamous masterpiece Face/Off, and so much more.

Special thanks to everyone who sent in a question. It was really fun.

Dan & Manny put the 1993 cult classic 🧹Hocus Pocus to the ultimate test--THE NOSTALGIA TEST! Manny has a really hard time trying to figure out if the movie is fun, if it's scary, why people love this movie, and creates a brand new drop, "He Casper-kissed her." Dan is confused by Sarah Jessica Parker's entire performance, is extremely tired from fighting with technology to get this episode edited and released, and has to start the 🧹Hocus Pocus 2 episode immediately, AND SO MUCH MORE!

Dan & Manny see which of Robert Palmer's biggest hits, "Addicted to Love" or "Simply Irresistible," reign supreme in this totally 80s episode. Find out which one will pass the ultimate test--THE NOSTALGIA TEST! This episode has been a long time coming, but it was worth the wait because Manny FINALLY agreed to put Over the Top to the ULTIMATE TEST, yet Dan has to watch the Sarah Michelle Gellar 90s romcom Simply Irresistible. They find out that both of these Robert Palmer songs have movies named after them! WHAT?!?!? Also, Manny sings his ASS off, the guys challenge themselves and everyone out there to listen to Robert Palmer for an entire day, and they are looking for anyone that listens to Robert Plamer, not ironically to be on the show. AND SO MUCH MORE!

Dan & Manny are joined by Ms. Tracy Jose, an Assistant Professor in the Department of English at Stella Maris College, Chennai, India, to learn all about the impact that American culture had on the experiences of a post-liberalization India. This was such an unbelievable learning experience. Ms. Jose brought not just academic points to the pod, she provided personal context from her own life. This was one of those special moments that enriched Dan & Manny's lives. Enjoy! 

This episode was part of the 3rd Annual Big Rhetorical Podcast Carnival. Big thanks to Dr. Charles Woods, host of The Big Rhetorical Podcast, for including this episode.

Dan & Manny get into it with The Adult Babies Podcast to put the 1991 classic 🏴‍☠️Hook to the ultimate test--THE NOSTALGIA TEST! This episode is a beautiful collage of chaos, yelling, and insane laughter, meaning it's a classic Nostalgia Test Podcast experience. The guys dig deeply into 🏴‍☠️Hook and try to figure out if Neverland causes amnesia, all the surprise cameos in 🏴‍☠️Hook, the fact that Spielberg originally wanted 🏴‍☠️Hook to be a musical, how Ruffio was basically thrown away once Peter got there and did they leave Ruffio's body behind after he died, there's an amazing Over the Top tangent at the end, and what the F*CK is up with the Tinkerbell Wendy Peter Pan love triangle?!

And so much more, including:

• Radio Flyer (1992)
