From its humble origins on the Gameboy in the late 90s to a multimedia phenomenon spanning manga series, a trading card game, anime series and films, and so much more, Pokémon is near and dear to 90s nostalgia. We're breaking down what makes Pokémon special, how we first discovered it, how our fandom has evolved over the decades, and playing a game trying to guess their names now that the roster has expanded from the original 150 to over 1000 today.

Duck Tales - Ep 10
This time we're blasting even further back into the past with Disney's Ducktales! Ducktales is an animated tv show from 1987-1991 that depicts the adventures, misadventures, and larger-than-life escapades of Donald Duck’s wealthy, curmudgeonly uncle Scrooge McDuck, as he’s charged with the care of his three mischievous nephews, Huey, Dewey, and Louie. The crew travels the world in search of treasure, fights off a hodge-podge cast of wacky villains who also want treasure, or Scrooge’s fortune, or his “Number One Dime.” Their journeys take them to pyramids, waterfalls, the center of the earth’s core, as well as through the streets of Duckburg. Join us and special guest Cary Verner for a waddle down memory lane.
