  • Happy Memories

    This is a show I listen to often to brighten my spirits. It definitely is an escape from this current world and a happy trip down memory lane. Matt and Jay are hilarious and super knowledgeable on the subject matter they present. I’ve learned of so many “new” movies to watch that I missed seeing back in the 80s and 90s. Thanks for the great content, guys!

    Times are hard and things are strange - let a podcast about old movies, TV episodes, food and much more heal your soul. Jay and Matt are great hosts and will keep you coming back for more. I’ve been here so long that the Christmas, Thanksgiving and Halloween episodes have become nostalgic for me and I listen to them yearly as a tradition. Keep up the great work guys.
