Being born in the late 70s, they believe that the 90s was the last truly great decade but, can you remember what was popular in music, film and TV? Do you recall your first love, bunking off school, music festivals and more? Join James, Phil & Rich - friends of more than 30 years - as, every episode, they discuss and reminisce about a single year. Was growing up in the 90s really as good as they remember it? Did it improve in the 00s? Any of you oldies remember the 1980s? Take a hilarious trip down memory lane with 3 Essex Boys, several beers, lots of wine gums and just a few scribbled notes to guide them. Their minds are willing but are they able? They're Not Faulty, Just Blank.

Remember that weird 'S' symbol that we all used to draw on our desks in high school? It was an experience shared by a group of people who all grew up in the 90's and early 2000s. We came after Generation X. We came at the tale end of Generation Y. We are Generation S, and if you have memories of growing up at the turn of the 21st century, this podcast is for you. It's a nostalgic look back, not only at popular books, movies, TV shows and the like, but also experiences that we may not have realized were shared by countless others around the world, like the feeling you had before your first school dance, or how your parents let you have cereal for dinner.

A comedy fiction podcast from Ben Harrison (The Greatest Generation) and Dan Kennedy (McSweeney's, founding host of The Moth Podcast ). Someone drinking at Casa Vega described the show as, "It's like Alan Partridge but at a 90's alternative rock station. Or like Comedy Bang Bang, but 90's radio." That person was killed by shadowy members of a nautically themed gang. Here's how we describe KPODD 101.3 since we're still living: Two L.A. morning radio DJs return to the airwaves in the 1990s after being suspended and sent to rehab. Machine Bolt and Él Farto are on a savage journey to better living. The mics are always on a little too early and each episode starts with the accidentally aired unvarnished small talk that lurks behind their positivity personas. The oddest characters invade their lives, and the occasional mysterious rips in the space-time continuum add a note of science fiction weird to the morning drive. You may have questions: Are they the only ones trapped in the 90s? Why did a giant python constrict the HR lady's Chihuahua? Why does this version of reality include the SeVan® conversion kit that turns most economy sedans into custom vans by appearance at most angles? Is Station Manager Gene from the future? Why does Producer Lynn dress like Kurt Cobain if he hosted a bird watching show on NPR? Start with a recent episode. Then jump around. Because there's no right way to travel back or forward in time. Everyone knows that. Right?
