from Pop Culture Preservation Society · host Pop Culture Preservation Society

The controversial 1973 commercial for the memory game Hüsker Dü inspired this episode in which we pepper each other with questions that all start with the phrase "Do you remember ....?" It's a rapid-fire round-up of random things that intrigue us but don't warrant an entire episode. We're talking about Rerun and doobies (or Doobies) and Mouseketeers and Gnip Gnop and our deep-seated fear that touching a Ford Pinto would blow up the world. That's just a small taste of the topics that popped up on in this conversation that could only happen amongst Gen Xers.Our Sponsors:* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
