Project Skullboi

Skullboi is an independent multimedia project exploring how our analog past continues to shape our digital future… or, nostalgic archaeology. Through the movies, television, music, toys, and technology of the 1980s, 1990s, and Y2K, Skullboi digs into the objects that still define Gen X, Xennials, and Millennials, and the cultural worlds that shaped them. These memories, communities, and experiences continue to influence how we create and connect today. On the website, you’ll find newsletters, vintage articles, and retro ads exploring the stories behind these decades. Get an even deeper conversation with our video podcast on YouTube, Spotify, or Apple, where Bryan is often joined by a guest to discuss the latest newsletters with additional personal stories and more. Where other nostalgia projects ask “remember this?” Skullboi asks “why is this nostalgic?” Because nostalgia isn’t just about remembering an object—it’s about understanding why it mattered in the first place.
