This week we welcome in our spleen MADSHROOM MC to breakdown the likes of My Sharona by The Knack. That's right, it's Song Spelunker time! Inspired by a recent episode of Here's the Science: A Bar Rescue Podcast, a song that is largely accepted and never analyzed came to be analyzed.

That's not all of course. We also talked some Twin Peaks and broke down our recent trip to Twede's Cafe, the filming location for the Double R out in North Bend, WA. Plus! The return of Kevin's Culinary Catastrophes!!

And if you enjoy what we are doing here at the Pit and would like to support us further, please check us out our patreon, where you can access our brand new exclusive podcast: No5talgia! That’s right, an entire, brand new, exclusive podcast for our specialist supporters.

We broke down PS2 and this week we’ll release our top 5 movie franchises! Ooooo yeeeeeuuhhhh… Make sure you subscribe to that Patreon to listen every week!

It's bracket time folks! And of course that means we welcome in Drinks w/ Ron to douse us with his latest curation. This month, we flash back to Saturday nights in the 90s. No, we're not talking Adam Sandler, Mike Myers and all the SNL crew that dominated the decade...

As 80s and 90s babies, we just had to go with SNICK! Saturday night Nickelodeon programming. Some of it brand new shows, some just repackaged goods, SNICK! was a foundational part of many young minds.

This week we welcome in professor of words and actor of voices, the wonderful Sean Daeley!

Sean is a teacher of both language arts and ESL, as well as a professional voice actor. But most importantly of all, Sean loves comics, animation, action figures, and (most) all things nostalgic, so we just had to get him in here.

Make sure you check out all of Sean’s works, as we’ll have his links in our episode description. We’ve also got our resident Spleen in the house. That’s right, the Brother Boogie himself is here in the mix and you know what that means. We got some Black Magic Noize at the end of the episode. Make sure you stay tuned for The Purge Volume 2 at the end. Link in the description.

Song Spelunker is back! It had (to quote Staind) been awhile since we'd thrown on our spelunker hats and dug deep into the sonic scenery of our nostalgia. This time, it's the 1996 smash hit Wannabe by the Spice Girls.

We also talk N64 game music and its capacity to be consumed in a live setting.

This week is a special one for any kid growing up in the 80s and 90s... How many times did you see a commercial for one of the 900 numbers and ask your parents for their credit card... "C'mon, mom, its only $3.95 for the first minute at $1.95 for any additional minutes..."

Well, we got our resident bracketologist Drinks w/ Ron in the house to breakdown 16(ish) of the most memorable options for audio entertainment. All this, and a bag of chips!

This week we welcome back repeat guest Fresh Kils in order to discuss some of life's most controversial topics: which Super Soaker is best?! And what's better after a day of romping through the neighborhood terrorizing your fellow water gun warriors than to sit down with a nice bowl of popcorn and watch some classic cinema.

That's not all we discuss! Tune in to hear it all! And make sure you stick around til the end where we'll be playing the new single by Fresh Kils and Myer Clarity entitled "End of Days" featuring Roshin & DJ Versatile. Link below.
