About this listen
In this episode of The 90s Rewind Report host Michael Reagan explores what it meant to grow up at the exact crossroads of analog childhood and digital adulthood.
Kids born in the ’80s and ’90s didn’t just witness technological change — they lived through it. From rabbit-ear antennas and appointment television to dial-up internet, AIM away messages, and a time when AOL was the internet. From Friday nights at bowling alleys and sleepovers fueled by pizza and forbidden horror movies, to SNICK, TGIF, Nickelodeon, and Disney Channel shaping a shared cultural language.
This episode dives into why this generation feels such a powerful pull toward nostalgia — not just emotionally, but physically. Why ’90s toys now sell for hundreds or thousands of dollars. Why we rebuy movies and albums we already own, even while paying for multiple streaming services. Why ownership still matters to a generation raised on finite media and off switches. At its core, The In-Between Generation isn’t about longing for the past — it’s about presence. About what was lost when everything became instant, infinite, and always on.
