Re-Examining Our Pop Culture Past

After discovering her old time capsule made in 1998, Randi Bergman examines how pop culture has changed since her adolescence with the help of incredible guests. There’s a wit and charm on display throughout each episode, making for a lovely walk down memory lane, where we’re forced to ask ourselves “was the 90’s as bad as we thought they were?”

One way ticket down memory lane

I thoroughly enjoy going back to my youth and have forgotten so much that is brought up on the show. Must-listen for anyone who grew up using ICQ while listening to Dance Mix.

What a throwback!

This show has been awesome to listen to and reminisce about the 90s. Can’t wait for more episodes!
