Just because Mike is on vacation doesn't mean the guys are going to let you - their loyal listeners - down! Things start with a discussion about Mike's aforementioned vacation, then it's on to the Monthly Mix-Tape Challenge where Joe answers the call to deliver a mix-tape of songs that have a guy's name in the title. Then, to keep things simple, the fellas hit the WABAC machine and deliver up an encore of their very first (and very unpolished) first episode!

In conjunction with a new feature article at When It Was Cool, host Karl discusses his 100 favorite comic book issues of all time. These are the comic books that made him a fan and collector for over 40 years. These are not the best or the greatest (we have a list for that too) but his personal favorites. Some, looking back, weren't even very good but something about them stuck out. This is a grand tour of 40 years of being a comic book fan. Enjoy!

Karl and Tonya sit down to lament there are no new movies and concerts are cancelled. So we dig into the comments and questions on our popular and active Patreon supporters forum which leads to a discussion about Saturday morning cartoons. We talk The Flintstones, The Jetsons, Scooby-Doo and Tonya can not believe Scooby-Dum was a real thing, The Smurfs, Tom and Jerry, and much more! These days can be quite a downer so come join some friends for some fun talking more innocent times and some great cartoons!

The guys wrap up their quadrology of episodes talking about cult movies with a discussion covering movies they felt should have been included in the three part "Time Warp" documentary series. Mike responds to Joseph's "Monthly Mix Tape Challenge", and then -- [NOTE: We had to cut this synopsis short because the show ran over and we've got to make up the time difference somehow.]

It's a new Old Time Wrestling Hour Podcast and we have the difficult task of trying to keep things positive on this show and I try my best! I am joined by Matt "Kid Zombie" Mann of Alternative Wrestling Radio and we talk tape trading in the old days, San Francisco wrestling, grocery store work during a pandemic, and much more. The Patreon version also features more from the 1937 book Fall Guys. Come and join us!

This is a fun episode. While I am calling it 'Pop Culture Rabbit Hole' I could also call it '7 Degrees of Wikipedia'. We start with today's date in Wikipedia and soon find ourselves talking about Kung Fu, Charlie Chan, the Green Hornet, the Lone Ranger, Foster Grant sunglasses, Robert Goulet, WWF WrestleMania 6, and much more! A fun pop culture experiment which starts in one place and ends up far away. Come with us as we jump into this retro pop culture Rabbit Hole!

TIME WARP: THE GREATEST CULT FILMS OF ALL-TIME - COMEDY & CAMP, the movie series looking at cult films. If you want to listen to them in order, episode #78 covers volume one (Midnight Madness) and #79 covers volume two (Horror and Sci-Fi). Of course there's the Monthly Mix-Tape Challenge featuring Joseph's mix-tape about trains as well as some random asides about Mike's "KaiJune" movie watching plan and Joe's hyping of some film festival entries.

It's Mike's birthday, so the guys celebrate in style by discussing favorite birthday-related movies and scenes like "Sixteen Candles" and the birthday party in "The Birds". Everything from All-Elite Wrestling's "Double or Nothing" PPV to Cowboy Monkey Rodeos and a veritable potpourri of unrelated topics. All of that PLUS Mike barely manages to answer Joseph's mix-tape challenge of songs about villains. And, hey - there's even some new intro and outro music.

Tonya and Karl talking retro pop culture and what they have learned about it since starting WhenItWasCool.com. We talk classic rock and going to concerts. We talk the decline in comic books and pro wrestling. We discuss areas of retro pop culture we have yet to explore including more from the 1990s, Transformers, anime, and more. If you're a fan of comics, action figures, Star Wars, G.I. Joe, classic rock, cartoons, and life in the 1970s through the 1990s then this is a great jumping on point!
