Codename: Kids Next Door

Codename: Kids Next Door

Come up to the treehouse and get ready for operation: P.O.D. Today Ben discusses Codename: Kids Next Door, the spy series that combined fantastical elements of sci-fi with childhood memories of playing in your neighbor's treehouse. We also talk about some of the not-so-great aspects of the show, but hey, this podcast is about revisiting nostalgia, right?

Over the Garden Wall

Settle in with some potatoes and molasses and get lost in the woods with us. Today Rachel discusses Over the Garden Wall, a great miniseries with maximum impact. True to form, though, we also spend some time talking about an old old poem by this guy named Dante--but it's relevant, we swear! Note: this episode was recorded in January right after the inauguration.

Crazy Bones

We’re back! And what better to return with than one of the weirder toys from the 90’s? Today Chris will be talking about Crazy Bones, their designs and many uses. Please note: we recorded this episode shortly after the events of January 6th. As they say, crazy times call for crazy bones.

The Grinch

Finals, technical difficulties delayed our Christmas ep, but nothing can stop our Christmas cheer! Well, maybe cheer is a strong word to use. Today we're all talking about a different Grinch movie: the good one, the weird one, and the toothless monstrosity. (And yes, we do touch on the musical)

The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie

Contrary to the title of this episode, we spent most of our time on centuries-old epics. Whoops! All Rachel wanted to do was talk about The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, but Ben had to ruin it by remembering nothing about the Odyssey. We promise there's a thesis in here somewhere!
