90’s Mixtapes: A 90’s nostalgia podcast

September 1993 Music: Nirvana, The Counting Crows and Meatloaf

What would you not do for love? Is grunge still listenable (obviously duh but is it?) And how good is August and Everything After? (Very. It's very good.) All that and more this week on 90's Mixtapes!

August 1993 Movies: The Fugitive and The Thing Called Love

This week we watched The Fugitive and The Thing Called Love and we have some thoughts. We also blind summarize A Bronx Tale and True Romance. And don't all clothes before the 1990s look the same?

August 1993 TV and Potpourri: Fallen Angels, The Power Rangers, Shock Jock insanity

We've combined TV and Potpourri again this month to cover Showtime's Fallen Angels in all of its film noir guest star glory, The Power Rangers, WCW's Shockmaster incident and a blip about Howard Stern that throws us into a shock jock rabbit hole. And in breaking news - Jen nails a trivia fact.

August 1993 Music: Long Island Legends Billy Joel and Mariah Carey

This month we have new albums from Billy Joel, Mariah Carey, Sheryl Crow and The Breeders. We chat about that and find ourselves talking about Halloween Candy and the values we would give certain ones. Also Jen knows embarrassingly nothing about The Sword in the Stone.

July 1993 Movies: Robinhood Men in Tights

This week we're talking about Robinhood Men in Tights, a little about Weekend at Bernie's 2 and Son in Law, and how comedies like this are a dying breed.

July 1993 TV & Potpourri: Blimp disasters, Bill Maher, Brains and Brawn and Barbies

Back in the studio this week and this is a fun one. This episode is a mash-up of TV and Potpourri and goes in every which way. We chat about TV shows like Brains and Brawn and Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher, and go over news stories including a Pizza Hutt Blimp attacking rooftop sunbathers. We find ourselves in rabbit holes that range from NY Mets lore to our experiences with Barbies and G.I. Joes. We ask the question you've all been waiting to know, did Ken Jong really eat potpourri as a kid? And there's a surprise mention of Max Moon - IYKYK.

July 1993 Music: Smashing Pumpkins Siamese Dream, Candlebox and Björk ft. our janky mobile studio

Join us in the Rav4 mobile studio in all its technical difficulty glory as we discuss music from July '93. This one is short and sweet but we'll be back in decked out 90's closet studio soon.

June 1993 Movies: Sleepless in Seattle and Jurassic Park

This episode we're throwing fire at Sleepless in Seattle and reminiscing on Jurassic Park. We also chat about favorite movie theatre snacks, Jen reminds Pat that not everything is gaslighting and we ask the important question - would you clone your pet? 

June 1993 Potpourri: John Bobbit, RBG, The Unabomber and more

This is a fun one, we're talking about John and Lorena Bobbit, The Unabomber, RBG, the end of Hulkamania... and then we go on tangents about Starter Jackets, hockey, Jurassic Park and Flowers in the Attic. The 90s were wild.

June 1993 TV: Game Shows, Dating Shows, Harry and the Hendersons and Parker Lewis

We're talking about summertime TV habits as a kid back in the 90s and the game shows we used to watch including Singled Out, The Dating Game, The Newlywed Game, $10,000 Pymarid and more. Also, have you heard of the Snorks?
