  • it’s maybe different than what i imagined but like it nonetheless

    i was around during myspace and loved the ability to do your own html/css and other nerdy things many of us experienced for the first time. this podcast focuses more on the drama and negative things about it, kinda wish it got more into the geeky side of things. love it regardless!

  • Disappointing!

    Not what I expected. I thought it would be much more interesting and nostalgic. But it is really just someone’s perceived interactions and feelings. 4 episodes in and I am done. Also, the narrator has grating way of talking. But I would be out even if she had a better delivery.
