Pop Culture Retrospective Amy Lewis Join me as we board a time machine and travel back to the retro pop culture of the 1980s, 1990s and early 2000s! On each episode, I take a deep dive into the backstory behind topics such as music, tv shows, movies, technology, regrettable fashions, and events from this unique period of time. This show is inspired by and dedicated to the memory of my older sister, Rebecca who I lost tragically in 2019. I want to learn the back story, the story behind the story, the hidden secrets, and fun facts of all of the things that she was into. This show is my love letter to my big sister. Anyone who is interested in learning more about the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s will want to tune in! Follow me on social media!

Presented by journalist Naomi O Leary and lecturer Tim Mc Inerney, this is your passport to Ireland. The Shocking Details Vincent Caldoni From the minds of Joe Swaney from the Thinking Sideways podcast and filmmaker Vincent Caldoni: Mysteries, history, true crime, tales of the unexplained, conspiracies and mirth! If you are of a certain age you may remember how newspapers worked: the headline told you the news and the front pages gave you the basics of the story but if you wanted the details-the real story the messy stuff, the backstory, you had to flip to the back of the section, past the fluff pieces, past the ads, and whatever else to get to it and if you were like us that was the good stuff-the details that shock. Revived Thoughts revivedthoughts We are bringing history's greatest sermons back to life! Sermons from famous preachers like Charles Spurgeon, DL Moody, John Calvin, and many more. These sermons contain great wisdom from the past that will encourage believers in their walks with God today. Each episode features a 5-10 minute backstory on who the preacher is to better understand the sermon's context. And each sermon has had its language updated for easy listening for the 21st century believer.
