Dan, Manny. & Billy put the 1993 Bill Murray comedy mind f**k Groundhog Day to the ultimate test—THE NOSTALGIA TEST!
“There's a quote that [Bill Murray] says, he's like, I killed myself so many times. I don't even exist anymore.”
-Manny
Well, the groundhog saw his shadow yesterday which means 6 more weeks of winter! You know what that means campers, “rise and shine! And don’t forget your booties ‘cause it’s cold out there today.” This was a really fun episode, and the guys get into so many of the layered rumors, conspiracies, multiverses, and quotables from this classic 1993 comedy. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll get confused, and you’ll feel like it’s happening over and over again. People, this is what nostalgia is all about, chillin with your best friends and making up alternate universes for a movie late into the night.
So grab your favorite furry friend, invite a group of nerds over, and grab a hot toddy, because there’s 6 more weeks of winter and The Nostalgia Test Podcast is going nowhere.
