Mallrats (1995) & The Rise of the 90s Slacker Comedy

This week on Totally 80s and 90s Recall, Dave, Rob, and Kurt go full flannel as they rewind to 1995 and dive headfirst into Kevin Smith’s cult classic Mallrats—a movie that taught a generation never to trust a chocolate covered pretzel, stay out of the back of Volkswagens, and for the love of Stan Lee, fear the escalator Our trio of podcasting mallrats unpacks the film's most unforgettable moments, from Brodie’s unapologetic comic book obsession to Jay and Silent Bob’s cartoonish chaos, Trish the Dish’s questionable book topic and why the hell is the guy at the Fashionable Male so angry all day? Expect plenty of 90s nostalgia, deep dives into VHS-era fashion choices, and at least one wild discussion about the difference between the food court and mid mall snacking. Plus, why is it so hazardous being the Easter Bunny? Whether you loved the movie or just hung out in a mall once in 1995, this episode's got your back like a security guard with a grudge and a walkie-talkie Pandora: https://pandora.app.link/iq8iShjXOLb Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/totally-80s-and-90s-recall/id1662282694 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/11dk5TUoLUk4euD1Te1EYG?si=b37496eb6e784408 Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/1960c8f9-158d-43ac-89a6-d868ea1fe077/totally-80s-and-90s-recall YouTube Podcasts: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH9lGakNgCDZUkkHMUu88uXYMJu_33Rab&si=xo0EEVJRSwS68mWZ Keywords: Mallrats, 90s Comedy, Kevin Smith, Movie Analysis, The Movie Hound, Cult Movies, 1995, Totally 80s and 90s Recall Contact Us: Website: https://bleav.com/shows/totally-80s-and-90s-recall  Email: [email protected] LinkTree:https://linktr.ee/80s90srecall Voicemail: (509) 426-4542 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
