Step into a time machine and journey back to the radical 1990s with us in this nostalgia-packed episode of This or That. Our dynamic duo dives deep into the pop culture pool of the 90s, challenging each other and listeners to choose between iconic pairings from the decade that gave us girl power and the latest must-have toys. From TGIF to chart-topping boy bands, and from beloved dolls to virtual pets, we cover it all in a fast-paced, laugh-filled trip down memory lane.
Things get heated when the age-old question of Backstreet Boys vs. *NSync comes up, with one of us insisting "Everybody" knows BSB is superior, while the other one argues that "It's Gonna Be Me" who has the last laugh in this debate. Whether you're Team Backstreet Boys or Team *NSync (or secretly still can't decide), this episode is guaranteed to hit you right in the nostalgia feels.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
