In this episode of Too Old For Cartoons, we're diving headfirst into the power of nostalgia—why it hits so hard, how it shapes our tastes, and how it's used to market and sell everything from cereal to cinema. From childhood cartoons to classic video games, the gang unpacks how our favorite memories are being repackaged and sold back to us.
Joining us at the roundtable are Almighty Spo, Claire Bear, and PG, as we talk reboots, remakes, retro merch, and Hollywood's addiction to the past. Meanwhile, Archie and Gabe are mysteriously missing—are they stuck in a time loop watching old Saturday morning cartoons? 👀
