Pop Culture Preservation Society

The Pop Culture Preservation Society is a podcast dedicated to preserving and elevating the unsung pop culture nuggets of the classic Gen X childhood. Were you there when Marcia broke her nose? Tiger Beat delivered the news? And John Travolta was stuck in that plastic bubble? Then this is the podcast for you! Join enthusiastic fangirls Carolyn, Kristin and Michelle — die-hard members of the Big Wheel Generation — as we discuss and dissect the crushes, clothes, books, movies, songs, tv and toys that shaped our youth. We’ll also chat about the role nostalgia plays in our lives and how recalling these positive memories increases our sense of connectedness and well-being. And really, isn’t that something we could all use a little more of right now? We hope you’ll join us as we wrap ourselves in the comfort of many of the pop culture moments that defined us when we were younger … and still bring us joy all these years later. Nanu nanu, keep on truckin', and may the force be with you all!

    Back To The Land of the Lost with Wesley Eure

    In honor of Land of The Lost’s 50th anniversary, were jumping back in that yellow raft with our friend Wesley Eure (who played Will Marshall on the iconic Saturday morning show) with an encore of our 2023 conversation PLUS a new intro about bare-breasted puppetry (you’ll just need to listen). Then join us as Wesley blows our minds with information about the Saturday morning staple that we didn’t know, gives us funny Sleestak intel, shares fun and heartwarming stories about his Land of The Lost family, tells us about the show that our own kids loved that he was (in part) responsible for, Dragon Tales, and so much more!

    Here's The Story...of Our Visit to The Brady Bunch House

    It’s true! We recently visited THE famous Brady Bunch house on Dilling Street in North Hollywood, CA … and we’re still pinching ourselves! Hear our story of how our visit came to be, the journey this house has taken since 1969 (and yes, of course we give props to the incredible HGTV renovation!) and our enthusiastic reactions to being in THE SAME SPACES AS THE BRADYS (well, sort of). Also hear from our good friend (and Brady Bunch expert) Suzie, who has been tirelessly and passionately adding hundreds of details to the house to make it even more authentic and groovy, AND from the house’s owner (and our new friend) Tina, who bought the house out of her love for the show … and who, with Suzie, is preserving this Gen X Capitol out of respect for all of US. And stay tuned until the end of the episode to hear how YOU (and a guest!) can win an all-expenses paid trip to tour the house AND have pork chops and applesauce with some of your favorite Bradys! It’s the grooviest of groovy episodes! Enter the Brady Experience sweepstakes here.

    The M*A*S*H Finale: Saying Goodbye to the 4077th

    Today we’re saying goodbye to one of the most memorable events of the Gen X era: the finale of M*A*S*H, which marked the end of one of television history’s most popular and innovative shows. We’re breaking down the poignant finale storylines and saying farewell, one tearful goodbye at a time. Which one of us completely missed the finale on Feb. 28, 1983 and then had such FOMO she pretended she had seen it? Who loved cross-dressing Klinger best? And whose sweet memories of watching her dad cry during this finale brings her to stirring tears? Grab a box of tissues, folks, you’re gonna need all of them.

    The Make Out Mixtape

    Join us today for a continuation of our discussion about the most beloved ancient relic that ultimately belonged to just one generation (hint: it was us): and that is the mixtape, a DIY medium exchanged between friends and lovers that was, on its surface, a way to share music but was actually a thinly veiled communication device intended to express our feelings to another person. There is one very particular kind of mixtape that we couldn’t fit into last week’s discussion – and to shortchange it would’ve been to erase an entire generation’s yearning for something very specific…Today we are talking about the Make Out Mixtape. Because of the age we were when we were making mixtapes – whether you were in middle school, high school, or college – a lot of our mixtapes were intended to woo. Or inspire special feelings that encouraged us to get closer to another person. Possibly with our bodies. Because we were in the midst of our sexual awakening. Even if you never got any action in high school, these tapes were aspirational. Maybe they were helping you fantasize about the things you would like to do if you were ever given the chance. Or maybe your tape was just step one in helping someone think about you in that way. Today's episode will take you behind the curtain of both Carolyn's and Kristin's adolescent makeout sessions and the soundtracks that accompanied them. Get ready for the swoonworthy sounds of makeout masters like DeBarge, Phil Collins, Chicago, Anita Baker, Lionel Richie, and Feivel the mouse (not even kidding). Time travel with us and let's see if we can get that estrogen flowing again!

  7. Ode To The Mixtape

    Ode To The Mixtape

    In today's episode, we’ll be saving an art form that belongs almost solely to Gen Xers – the friendship bracelet of the 80s and 90s, the analog version of posting and sharing – we’re talking about the making and gifting of mixtapes. Born in the 1980s and peaking in the mid 1990s, the mixtape truly belongs to Gen Xers. Boomers were adults and Millennials were babies when mixtapes emerged as a DIY way – a very DIY, handmade, homemade way – to share music.There might be a few older Millennials who embraced the making of mixtapes but they wouldn’t have had them very long before their desktop computers started coming with CD drives. The mixtape was, of course, about music -- but it could also be intensely personal, created with a theme and a purpose to make a connection with another person. Join us as we share our own mixtapes from friends and lovers; their names, their stories and their songs. Who learned about The Time from a party mixtape? Who had a Winnie-the-Pooh-themed mixtape? And which PCPS tagline came directly from a mixtape created in 1991? Grab a Memorex tape and hold down the play and record buttons for this tribute to Gen X's most beloved music sharing platform.
