Episode 14 - Kevin Smith
This week's episode takes a fond look back at Kevin Smith's four 90s movies, and we briefly discuss his peculiar choice in attire. Why his iteration of "fuck you money" is backwards hats, hockey jerseys, and jorts, we may never know. Oh and March Dino Madness is down to the final round!...

Episode 11 - Super Metroid!
Super Metroid was a really cool game, and we take a good look at it this week and fondly discuss how dope Samus Aran is. So dope. Did you know that there were YTV pogs? We didn't either and it's upsetting. Oh yeah, and the results are in for March Dino Madness. Connor was upset for a while then…

Episode 9 - The Lost Episode
Episode 9 is brought to you by Connor's 2009 Macbook Pro, which he has managed to not hit with a hammer despite a feverish desire to do so. It's also (but actually) brought to you by the slap bass from Seinfeld. This one is so nice we recorded it twice! That's not really true. Rush Hour 4 is...
-
Episode 8 - The Winter Olympics
This week's episode is brought to you by how absolutely terrible touchscreens were in the 90s. Seriously. They were so flippin' bad we don't understand why people even bought them. TERRIBLE.
