Episode Description from the Publisher

On this episode of the podcast, we take a trip back to the golden era, breaking down the most nostalgic Hasbro wrestling figures that defined a generation and uncovering the origins of the legendary Konami Code. We revisit what it was like getting sick back in the day when your mom came through with Flintstones vitamins, Dimetapp, and that Vicks, and we debate which classic 80s movie we would relive if we could. We also swap stories about our first cell phones and email addresses, and tap into real childhood moments like climbing chain link fences with your friends. Discord drops were hitting, Fit Check was on another level, and we packed in a whole lot more nostalgia along the way.Today's episode was brought to you by Salty Water. Hydrate Your Inner Warrior!
