Retrophilia: The '90s in Music, Film & Culture
- 24 - Malls in the '90s
Calling all Mall Rats, Mall Goths, Mall Punks, and Mallternatives! Malls fulfilled our dreams and socials scenes for generations, but they are quickly turning from a safe haven for teenagers to abandoned monuments to late stage capitalism. Born of the suburbs, malls had their last great era in the 1990s. Audra and Raymond talk mall movies, mall history, and read some very provocative listener mail on the topic.

Thu, 29 Feb 2024 - 1h 21min - 23 - Suburban Landscapes and Rites of Passage: The Story of Church Youth Groups
Were the ‘90s the Suburbs Decade? Raymond and Audra discuss the explosion of the suburbs and its hand in creating the Church Youth Group, Youth Pastors, and even Christian Rock. Raymond’s personal experiences (and listener input), help flesh out this very ‘90s phenomenon. Audra finally gets to ask the burning question, “What’s up with the whole Christian haunted house thing?!”
PS: King of the Hill episode “Reborn to be Wild” (S8.E2) is heavily referenced.

Thu, 30 Nov 2023 - 1h 11min - 22 - End Times: Horror and the Millennium
It's end times fun times here at Retrophilia as we discuss how anxieties for Y2K expressed themselves in 90's cinema via apocalypse-themed movies. It was a decade full of 'em, but we'll focus on two movies that share several themes in common: IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS (1994) and THE NINTH GATE (1999).
Mon, 30 Oct 2023 - 57min - 21 - '90s Cable TV
If television was your babysitter, this episode is for you! Audra & Raymond discuss sweet sweet cable TV, why it was invented and how we spent our childhoods (and beyond) parked in front of it. From Nickelodeon to MTV to Skinemax, Retrophilia unscrambles shows like "The Adventures of Pete & Pete," VH1's "Behind the Music," "USA Up All Night," and many more. Plus, listener memories!

Tue, 05 Sep 2023 - 1h 01min - 20 - 1994: The Year Alternative Became Mainstream
Retrophilia is back, baby! Audra and Raymond are thrilled to return to the ‘90s after a year-long sabbatical living in the present day. They dive right back in with the year the music changed. 1994 was the peak year of crossover madness. Find out how Alternative, Modern, and College Rock went blazing into the mainstream, and how Green Day, NIN, Pearl Jam, Beck, and Ween (?!) became household names (and how flannels ended up in your Sears catalog).

Mon, 31 Jul 2023 - 55min - 19 - 90's Alt. Comedy
Just like music and film, comedy went through a transformation in the 1990s. Perhaps in reaction to the glut of mediocre and shallow comedians of the '80s, comedy shows like MR. SHOW, KIDS IN THE HALL, and SPACE GHOST COAST TO COAST upended expectations with their alternative brand of social commentary and changed the way we think about comedy today.
Thu, 21 Jul 2022 - 53min - 18 - Video Store Auteurs
The advent of the video rental store made a wide variety of films available for study and this changed the landscape of cinema. Video stores birthed a new breed of filmmaker in the '90s, including Quentin Tarantino and Kevin Smith. Were these auteurs the culture-bearers of film history or self-indulgent dude bros? Or both? Audra and Raymond take a look at RESERVOIR DOGS and CLERKS, and discuss their relevance then and now.

- 16 - MTV Animation
At the dawn of the '90s, a magical thing happened when MTV began diversifying their programming - they launched a cutting-edge animation show called LIQUID TELEVISION, which changed animation forever. AEON FLUX and BEAVIS AND BUTT-HEAD sprung from this fertile anthology show, bringing the avant-guard and the hilariously puerile into homes across the world. The success of these shows lead to hits like DARIA, THE HEAD, THE MAXX, and more!

- 14 - Woodstock '94 vs. Woodstock '99
A revival and a revival of a revival, Woodstock '94 and Woodstock '99 were fitting bookends to a culturally tumultuous decade. Boomer nostalgia and a new kind of voracious consumerism simultaneously meshed and clashed at these two benchmark events. The results ranged from sublime to tragic. Join Audra and Raymond as they sift through the dynamics of this muddy situation. Sometimes third time is not a charm, but rather a traumatic disaster.
Sun, 17 Apr 2022 - 1h 14min - 13 - Pam & Tommy & Celebrity Tapes
Too hot to handle or too sad to celebrate? Audra & Raymond discuss the explosion of celebrity tapes in the ‘90s and review the Hulu limited series, PAM & TOMMY.
Wed, 30 Mar 2022 - 46min - 12 - Against the '70s: Classic Rock in the 1990s
The 1990s saw a gigantic resurgence of "Classic Rock" from the late '60s and early '70s, as it was discovered by children of Boomers. Was this classic status deserved or was it a distraction from the music and culture of our own generation? Look what it did to Mike Watt!

- 7 - 90's Erotic Thrillers
Titillating transgressive film genre or a dark window into the women-fearing anxieties of men? Audra & Raymond investigate the phenomenon, looking into its roots in film noir and the sexist media circus of the early 1990s. Up for debate are Paul Verhoeven’s BASIC INSTINCT and Barry Levinson’s DISCLOSURE. It's a Michael Douglas film festival this week on Retrophilia!

- 5 - The Experiment: Part 2
The thrilling conclusion to Raymond's experiment in which he attempted to live in the 1990s for a week. How long can a Millennial survive without a smart phone, streaming movies, and Coke Zero? Tune in to find out. Errata: During the segment on radio, Raymond was actually referring to WSRV, not WKLS.
Thu, 16 Dec 2021 - 39min - 4 - The Experiment: Part 1
Attempting to live like it's the 1990s for a week, Raymond will put his sanity and digital addiction on the line in the name of armchair anthropology.
