Stuck In The 90s

This week Disneyland stays open late, but closes rides early. Microsoft is in the hot seat for its anti-competitive behaviour and they actually made a Mortal Kombat TV show.  We go in depth to take a look at Video Dating, something that could really only exist in the 90s. Too advanced for personal ads and too early for Tinder, the 90s were just right for video cassette matchmaking.  Stuck in the 90s is brought to you by Flannel, the choice clothing of rock stars, cool kids and Al Borland in the 90s.  Be a $10 sponsor and we'll speak about you more warmly than a flannel jacket on a brisk Canadian fall day.  Hosted on Acast.

This week we peer into a world where TV guide magazine was one of the only ways to see what's on, we learn what SEGA is doing with all their money and yes, wrack our minds trying to figure out how they made 'Free Willy' into a cartoon show.  We delve deep into the depths of payphones and phonebooths. Do you remember how to make a collect call? Oh, and we had a bit of audio trouble with the music portion of this week. Sorry 'bout that.  This week's episode is brought to you by Marijuana: The Gateway Drug. If you would like to be a $10 sponsor, send us an email at stuckinthe90spodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

This week on the podcast we learn that death doesn't stop you from winning an election, trading cards are becoming more diverse, and Quantum Leap is back... and to the left.  There's also new TV shows airing for the first time, like Picket Fences, Hangin' with Mr. Cooper and Beakman's World. What a time to be alive and watching television.  We take a look at how running TV and movie franchises into the ground really started to become a thing in the 90s (it's not all bad) and we remember fondly, a time when every scandal wasn't called [something]gate. This week is brought to you by the Bro (or Manssiere) for all your male support and comfort. If you want to be a real sponsor, you can! Email stuckinthe90spodcast@gmail.com for more info.

This week President Clinton begs forgiveness for that beej he got. A video store in Utah is making some edits to their copies of Titanic and one of Disneyland's Tomorrowland rides does just about as well as the movie. It's September, and that means new TV shows have just begun. We talk about a few of the debuts this week and then go in depth to cover a couple commercials that aired around this time too.

This week's podcast is inundated with depressing news, but there's some good stuff too. Area codes get split up, drug deals get busted and we learn about one of Bill Nye's early gigs in the 90s.  The POTUS plays golf again and we go in depth about the theme songs for Bob Saget's TV shows.

This week Bill Clinton plays golf yet again, IBM tries to be cool by appealing to Java developers (good luck) and M.C. Hammer sells his mansion.  This was also sadly the week that the world lost Princess Diana of Wales.  We take an somewhat in depth look at the ways we had to get in touch with people in the 90s vs today. It was entirely improvised thanks to our top-notch planning, you're gonna love it maybe. This week's episode has been brought to you by semi-puppeteered-semi-real black cats from the 90s.

Join us this episode for a peek inside Bill Clinton's vacation golf game, we speculate on why laserdisc failed and learn about a military porno ring. This week's top music contains several songs that have similar names to other songs, which is kinda interesting. We take a somewhat in-depth look back at mushroom cuts with that precision part right down the middle which results in us borderline fanboying over Jonathan Taylor Thomas and Rider Strong.

This week we take a look back to the summer of 1999. Bill Clinton's legal bills were adding up, Price had a yard sale and people using the internet for nefarious purposes started to see a push back. We also take an in depth look at Who Wants to be a Millionaire, which premiered this week and swept the nation(s) like a giant nation-sweeping broom wielded by an enormous alien that looks like Regis Philbin.

This week's news has partisan politics at it's finest and new age medicine at its least finest.

We hop back 20 whole years to the wonderful 1996 this week and try to make a podcast happen before we leave for a music festival.
