  • Amazing nostalgia pod!

    I listened to the Casper episode and it really took me back. The hosts have fantastic energy, the content really tickled that nostalgia itch and I just loved hearing them talk about one of my favorite movies from the 90s. If you love movies and nostalgia, this is one you’re not going to want to miss!

  • A Necessary Look At Our Culture

    This podcast is amazing. It has given me a new lens to view my childhood from. It is ok for the things that we love to have problematic pasts and scary implications for our culture. The best thing we can do for out culture moving forward is to be honest about it. I am a child of the 90’s. I was raised by a mixture of purity culture and televised babysitting. Unpacking that is now possible because I know that I am not alone. Thank you for making this show!

  • Love it

    Even though the topics can be traumatic there is something soothing about this show. Love how thorough you both are. I do hope you continue to do AYAOTD episodes all the time. And, I don’t think you’ve done this but maybe an episode on the dark side of Nickelodeon? Or other nick shows. Or dark side of Disney?

  • Like chatting with friends

    I love the rapport that Kalyn and Christian have and how it comes through in this podcast. They present a good balance of factual information about the movies and shows they talk about with their own feelings. Their friendship shines through every episode and it makes me wish I could spend time in person with them. more

  • Therapy for 90s kids movie trauma

    Found the podcast from their comment on a brave little toaster reel on IG, it is therapeutic to listen to another person talking about their childhood trauma from all these ‘kid’ movies. I appreciate the breakdown, the background, the personal stories. Please don’t stop, us 90s kids need to heal (born in ‘88)
