Pop Rewind Podcast: Game Boys, Virtual Boys, Nomads, and More

Pop Rewind Podcast: Game Boys, Virtual Boys, Nomads, and More

Special thanks to AJ of The Classic Red Green Page who asked us how Lee’s Game Boy modding from our Scary Books and Stuff podcast episode back in October went and requested it as a podcast topic. We’re nothing if not punctual. Or the opposite.

In this episode of the Pop Rewind Podcast, Linz and Lee venture down the path of retro handheld gaming and Lee goes on a Back to the Future Rant (TM).

Pop Rewind Podcast: Obscure Television Shows

Pop Rewind Podcast: Obscure Television Shows

You guys, it’s a weird one. Buckle up while Linz tries to explain this: we’re talking about TV shows that we watched that NO ONE else did. Just stuff that either didn’t appeal to our peers so they never gave it a chance (giving us no one to discuss these works of art with) or television shows on at odd hours that only social outcasts such as ourselves could truly appreciate. Join us on a journey…

Rick Springfield is a Vampire

A 1980s pop singer, vampires, Erica Kane’s ex-husband, and a made-for-TV movie from 1989. These are all things Linz loves, so it’s no wonder that when given the opportunity to purchase a $9 DVD containing those four elements she’d jump on it. Nick Knight stars Rick Springfield as a vampire detective working the night shift. His arch nemesis LaCroix, played by Michael Nader (a.k.a Dimitri Marick,…
