1989:THE SEQUEL (No, not 1990)

Season 2 · Episode 9

Tuesday, November 11, 2025 • Duration 01:51:13

1989 was the year of sequels, so why not have a sequel to our 1989: Pop Culture Awakening episode?!? I'm joined once again by Anthony (Tin Foil Consortium) to wade through not only the TV, movies and music of 1989, but the far reaching influence and the past influences that are connected to the pop culture we love from that magical year. There's SO MUCH to love about 1989, we had to get back together and record!Yeah, sequels can be tiresome, but sometimes they're even BETTER than the original! Especially if they're the middle of a trilogy....

The Lost Boys Halloween Special

Season 2 · Episode 8

Tuesday, October 28, 2025 • Duration 01:18:22

I'm a big wuss, this is no secret. I'm not really into horror movies, even though I came of age during the 80's, arguably the greatest decade for horror cinema ever. But I always had an affinity for vampires, and THE LOST BOYS was the kind of horror/comedy hybrid that was right up my alley. I welcome BRAD REITER (Big Beard Booty Daddy) back down into the basement for my HALLOWEEN episode to share our thoughts regarding this stylish, sexy and funny mash up with a killer young cast and an even better soundtrack! I still believe...do YOU?!?

Monday, June 9, 2025 • Duration 02:19:21

Living Legends...not many can use that mantle and actually embody it for over 60 years and counting, especially when some of the legends ain't living anymore. Summer's here and the time is right for fightin' in the street, boys....so join me in welcoming Bill Dunn down in the Basement as we go through the past darkly and midnight ramble our way from Beggars Banquet to Black and Blue, with pitstops along the moonlight mile and rock 'n roll wasteland of the 60's and 70's.

The Evolution of Sports Fandom

Season 1 · Episode 9

Friday, May 30, 2025 • Duration 57:48

How do we become sports fans? After we become sports fans, how do we watch our favorite teams? Gather with family and friends? Shun all others and obsess alone? And do we pass these traditions onto our children, as they may have been passed to us? Join Mike as he welcomes his bitter rival Scott, otherwise known as ChiefsMASHforever, down into the POP CULTURE BASEMENT to discuss the origins of sports fandom, growing up watching games on television or in person, and the traditions and memories associated with following the teams we love. All this, and some good natured, old fashioned ball busting! What more could you ask for sports fans?!?

Puff the Magic Dragon TV Special

Episode 8

Thursday, May 15, 2025 • Duration 01:12:40

It's no exaggeration when I say that this TV special has lived inside my subconscious for over 40 years, trying to claw its way to the surface. When you're dealing with material like this, you bring in the big guns, which is why SPECIAL GUEST Henry Bernstein is here to help me sift through my childhood angst and break down 1978's PUFF THE MAGIC DRAGON! We start with Puff and end up at Superman...in between we discuss 70's animation trauma, unmade Bob Dylan cartoons and opine on why Adam West is an underrated Batman. Things get CRAZY, and I don't just mean the psychedelic storyboards used for this special! Join us as I unpack my psyche, won't you?!? It's a good one!
