Wine or Milk? Nostalgia Reviewed

This week, Jess is nominating one of her most nostalgic movies, “The Sandlot”! We’ve been wanting to cover this since the inception of the podcast, and finally felt like the time was right. Will this movie be hit out of the park, or is it an L6 Weeny? Let’s find out! Find us at: wineormilkpodcast.com Instagram @wineormilkpodcast Twitter @wineormilk Facebook /WineOrMilk

For this drink break, we’re reminiscing on the early days of cell phones!  Remember having talking minutes, and waiting until night to call people? Remember having only a couple hundred texts a week?  Or how everyone used to keep their ringer on?  What a weird world we used to live in!

This week is Kyle’s pick, and he’s nominating perhaps one of the most critically acclaimed movies we’ve covered to date: Spirited Away.  This movie is world renowned for its art, story, music and so much more.  It’s basically a household name at this point! But, has it held up since 2001? Join us in Yubaba’s Bath House as we cover everything from Radish Spirits to Stink Monsters!

For this Drink Break we’re covering two very wonderful things that are sadly not a part of our life anymore: Field Trips and Toys “R” Us. We’re reminiscing on our best (and worst) field trips of our childhood.  Jess’s grade decided not to go to DC, while Kyle dueled it out on the streets of NYC! Then, we’re remembering a now lost part of our childhoods: Toys “R” Us.  From window shopping to riding the ferris wheel in the NYC store, we have a lot of memories to look back on!

This week is Jess’ nomination and she’s nominating a favorite from her childhood “The Mummy”! This action-packed archeological adventure has lots of thrills, but can it hold up to time, or will it age like a “nice gooey mummy”?

Remember sleep overs? Or hand-me-downs? Did you parents always buy a size up because they were tired of you outgrowing things? Did you get the couch, or sleep on the floor? Did you have light up sneakers?! For this Drink Break, we’re thinking back to late nights gossiping, watching movies, and being too loud at our friends’ houses before opening up our childhood wardrobes (metaphorically!) to find our fashion faux-pas!

This episode was recommended by our listeners and is one of our FAVORITE movies!  We’re watching the (much to our surprise) poorly rated 1991 reimagining of Peter Pan: Hook! Or, as Jess calls it, Peter Pan, All Grown Up! This movie has a lot to take in.  Robin Williams, Dustin Hoffman, Julia Roberts, Steven Spielberg and John Williams.  It features a robust, talented group of child actors, and expands the universe of a classic children’s fairytale.  But, will it be enough to age like wine?

For this Drink Break we're talking about recreational sports and what we wanted to be when we grew up! From soccer to softball, we played a lot of sports, but had very different levels of success. Jess was a valuable player, while Kyle was mostly on the ground. Then, we shift gears to talking about what we wanted to be as kids!  Find us at: wineormilkpodcast.com Instagram @wineormilkpodcast  Twitter @wineormilk Facebook /WineOrMilk

Texas got a major winter storm last week, and we had to conserve energy!  Unfortunately, this meant that we weren't able to record a new episode, so we'll see you next week.  Hope you're all doing well!

We’re doing a new Drink Break format this week!  Each of us came with something nostalgic that we wanted to reminisce on.  Kyle wanted to talk about “childhood fears”, and Jess wanted to talk about “school lunches”!

This week, Kyle is finally nominating his favorite teen-drama rom-com, 10 Things I Hate About You!  This is another movie based off classic literature (Shakespeare’s "The Taming of the Shrew"), but will that be enough to keep this movie fresh? Join us as we talk about Heath Ledger’s and Julia Stiles’ on screen chemistry, dads who are uncomfortably controlling about their daughter’s virginity, and how some staples of 90s comedy have aged!

Yesterday was Groundhog Day, and today it’s our Groundhog Day episode! Wait… Was the day before that Groundhog Day too? And the day before that..?
