Step into the Penny Men’s time machine and prepare to wander the sacred aisles of VHS heaven! Mammoth Video, Video to Go, Blockbuster, Family Video — the smell of popcorn, the hum of fluorescent lights, pinball machines chiming in the corner, and that glorious click when you popped a tape into the VCR!
We’re talking:
This is the thrill of discovery, the agony of rewinding, the joy of walking out with Mega Man X, Thumb Wars, or Hot Lead and Cold Feet starring Don Knotts!
We reminisce about:
It’s aisles of dusty treasures, foreign films with no subtitles, forgotten Saturday morning cartoon tapes, and the mystery of “what happens next?” in that movie you never got to finish!
From obscure gems to childhood staples, from rewinding fines to accidental obsessions, Ben, Greg, and Tom relive the chaos, the smell, the sounds, and the pure magic of video stores — before streaming murdered the art of accidental discovery and replaced it with “Recommended for You” purgatory!
Grab your quarters, dodge the gumball machine, and let’s rent something weird!
