How the 1990s started vs. how they ended. Some terrible movies with great soundtracks. The King of Pop's feature-length film debut.

Episode 245 is a perfect picnic of GenX nostalgia as Memorial Day Weekend approaches.

We kick, spin, and awkwardly lean to one side as we look back at Michael Jackson's Moonwalker. A feature-length film and video game, this project came out at the peak of Jackson's fame. How were these received? We will dive deep into both.

A decade is a long time. So much can change in that span. In a new segment on the podcast, we are going to compare and contrast a decade from the first day to the last day. It will be the 1990s, how they started compared to how they ended. Music, television, fashion, pop culture trends, technology, and more. We will look at it all.

It is the return of Me v AI Top 5. The sixth installment is a look at some bad movies with great soundtracks. These were films that were critically and/or commercially panned, yet the music was worth listening to. As always, ChatGPT's list is read out by beloved early 2000s malware program Bonzi Buddy.

There is, as always, a brand-new This Week In History and Time Capsule featuring the life and legacy of wrestling legend Andre the Giant.
