  • Ever?

    Just listened to E.T. ep. You don’t need to finish every statement of facts with “…of all time” and “…ever”. Do you know how long “all time is”. E.T. is the biggest movie since the Big Bang. Your “favorite cereal of all time. Just say your “favorite cereal”.

  • How can someone make the 80s so dull?

    I tried to like it, but the voice is a bit too monotonous for me.

    Unfortunately, although I initially enjoyed the podcast, the creator has started spamming me with unwanted podcasts by some chancer called Jay Shetty. Unsubscribed.

  • Nostalgia in the best way

    I’ve been binging this show for the last 2 months. It beings back so many memories and I’m learning details of things I was too young to understand or remember!

    Please please make an episode about the V mini series! One of my favorites from the 80s!
