Remember Ninja Movies? (with Kevin Morby)

This week on the podcast we are joined by musician, Kevin Morby! From his early days checking out music in Kansas City to dropping out of high school with $600 in his pocket to move to New York City, Kevin tells us about his journey from aspiring musician to full-time rocker. We also get into the nostalgic topic of ninja movies, from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to Three Ninjas, we discuss our favorite movies from the era. Kevin also learns in real time that he's listed as a notable student on kickboxer Dale Cook's Wikipedia page in case you were looking for a way to connect Kevin to the film "American Kickboxer 2." Why were so many movies we watched as kids like "Flight Of The Navigator" or "My Girl" kind of dark? We all discuss it, but don't really know. Finally in a game of YESTOLGIA OR NOSTALGIA we discuss the return of classic menu items at Taco Bell, HGTV's new nineties house renovation show hosted by Jaleel White and the return of Blue Bell's "Tin Roof" flavored ice cream.
