Over Retrospection Connection

Welcome to "Retrospection Connection", where we re-examine tv and movies from formative times in our lives (adolescence, teen hood, and college years), but from our more mature, critically-inclined perspectives. The show seeks to bridge the gap between our current selves and the "inner child" in each of us, drawing from our favorite moments to understand the impact that a particular piece of media had on us and, potentially, so many others.

Gracie's Trek to "Station Eleven"

In this episode of RC, I dove headfirst into HBO miniseries "Station Eleven" with my new friend, Gracie. For the uninitiated, "Station Eleven", based on a popular book of the same name, chronicles the immediate and long-term aftermath of a world-ravaging pandemic (which I’m sure no one can draw any parallels to in our reality). Seriously though, through watching the show, I was reminded that it’s sometimes important to confront ideas that make you uncomfortable; that’s where processing and healing can be found more often than not. Together, Gracie and I discussed themes of grief and loss, forging community in the face of struggle, and appreciating the beautiful, finite nature of the present moment.

Sex & the City (& Jalen & Carolina)

Long ago, in the late 1900s, the world changed forever when a new human classification system dropped. All of a sudden, everyone had to know: were they a Carrie, a Samantha, a Miranda, or a Charlotte? That’s right, today’s piece of media is none other than the 1998 HBO juggernaut, Sex & the City. This episode holds an extra special place in my heart, not only because it allowed me to channel my inner New Yorker, but also because of today’s guest, fellow pop culture fanatic (and my friend) Carolina. In this episode, we engage in something of a deep dive into friendships, romance, and personal development, both in the context of Sex & the City and our own experiences as so-called adults. Without further ado, be sure to grab your favorite mixed drink or mocktail and listen in on our conversation! Theme music creator: Rummel Requerme. “Ad Break” segment music creator: HoliznaCC0.

A Very Special Discussion of "BoJack Horseman" with Chris

Lately, I’ve been reminiscing on one of my favorite conventions of the classic sitcom, the “very special episode”. You very likely remember an episode of your favorite 80s or 90s sitcom that addressed an unusually heavy topic for the format. It was honestly a bit jarring most of the time, ham-fisted between plots chock full of frivolous hijinks and shenanigans. On occasion though, necessary and important conversations were sparked with these sorts of episodes, and they paved the way for modern sitcoms to integrate these topics more seamlessly. One such example is Netflix’s hit animated sitcom, BoJack Horseman, which chronicles the life of the titular character, trying (and often struggling) to make a new name for himself despite his troubled past and present. In this episode of RC, I chat with new friend and BoJack expert, Chris, on how this show and its characters contend with what it means to be a complicated human (or anthropomorphic animal), and to make the most of being alive despite the cards you’ve been dealt. I hope you enjoy!

Emily Lives Vicariously Through "10 Things I Hate About You"

Good news...this is officially Retrospection Connection's 13th episode! RC is officially a teenager, and this is something that we must celebrate. To mark the occasion in style, I got my friend (and future nurse girlboss), Emily, on the line with me to discuss another iconic piece of media that has something to do with teenagers, the 1999 classic film, 10 Things I Hate About You. If you love this movie like us, or if you haven’t even seen it, but enjoy movies that are 70% pure manipulation and a dash of cute romance shenanigans, you’ll definitely want to keep listening. We’ve got a great episode for you and it’s yours to enjoy! Theme music creator: Rummel Requerme. “Ad Break” segment music creator: HoliznaCC0.
