Summary

Welcome to Movie Time Machine, where this week in the summer of 1998 the world is in danger as a Texas sized asteroid is hurtling toward Earth. NASA has one last hope: send up a crew of roughneck oil drillers and hope Michael Bay edits fast enough to save humanity. The MTM crew straps in for liftoff, as Chad wonders if he is actually rooting for the asteroid, James revisits his fond memories of 1998 summer blockbusters while admitting this one is fun but bad, and Jamie pops into the pod halfway through which feels fitting since he only finished half the movie.Join us as we dig into Bayhem logic, the cheesiest one liners, Bruce Willis’s sacrificial dad arc, and the Aerosmith ballad that might have outlived the movie itself. We will laugh, cringe, and debate if Armageddon deserves its place as the biggest box office hit of 1998 or if the asteroid should have just wiped us all out.

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!
