Synopsis

This is Dating Ourselves. The show where we talk everything 80s, 90s, and early 2000s. For the most part, we will be selecting topics based on listener submissions, and talking about them. We all grew up in the same Midwestern town, and we’ve always had a passion for the things from our childhood. All the old movies, toys, board games ,and video games you had to blow into the cartridge to play. Since then we’ve all moved away from that Midwestern town (some not as far as we would like), but we still wanted to continue these discussions. The premise is fairly straight forward, listeners will submit topics and at the end of each weekly episode, in a somewhat wacky game show fashion, we will unveil what the topics will be for next time. We are loosely sticking between the years of 1980 and 2005, but we might fluctuate a bit if a topic is too good to pass on by. Keep in mind listeners, if there’s something you’d like to hear us talk about, let us know!
