Pop Culture Preservation Society

By: Pop Culture Preservation Society
  • Summary

  • The Pop Culture Preservation Society is a podcast dedicated to preserving and elevating the unsung pop culture nuggets of the classic Gen X childhood. Were you there when Marcia broke her nose? Tiger Beat delivered the news? And John Travolta was stuck in that plastic bubble? Then this is the podcast for you!

    Join enthusiastic fangirls Carolyn, Kristin and Michelle — die-hard members of the Big Wheel Generation — as we discuss and dissect the crushes, clothes, books, movies, songs, tv and toys that shaped our youth. We’ll also chat about the role nostalgia plays in our lives and how recalling these positive memories increases our sense of connectedness and well-being. And really, isn’t that something we could all use a little more of right now?

    We hope you’ll join us as we wrap ourselves in the comfort of many of the pop culture moments that defined us when we were younger … and still bring us joy all these years later.

    Nanu nanu, keep on truckin', and may the force be with you all!

  • Back To The Land of the Lost with Wesley Eure
    Nov 18 2024

    In honor of Land of The Lost’s 50th anniversary, were jumping back in that yellow raft with our friend Wesley Eure (who played Will Marshall on the iconic Saturday morning show) with an encore of our 2023 conversation PLUS a new intro about bare-breasted puppetry (you’ll just need to listen).

    Then join us as Wesley blows our minds with information about the Saturday morning staple that we didn’t know, gives us funny Sleestak intel, shares fun and heartwarming stories about his Land of The Lost family, tells us about the show that our own kids loved that he was (in part) responsible for, Dragon Tales, and so much more! No Grumpys here — just a great and fun conversation!

I’m OBSESSED!

If you’re in your 50’s this podcast is something you won’t want to miss! It’s funny and thoughtful at the same time. I’ve literally laughed and cried while listening. Kristen, Michelle and Caroline feel like my new best friends and I reminisce about my own childhood as they talk about theirs.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
