30 years later, is Pierce Brosnan's debut as James Bond still as explosive as that iconic tank chase through St. Petersburg? In this episode, we're putting GoldenEye under the microscope to determine if this 90s action classic holds up in 2025 or if we're just blinded by nostalgia.
It's been a while since our last episode, but we're back and with a new format! Let us know what you think of it.

35:04 Cool vs Nostalgia Results
The eternal struggle is fought here between what is genuinely cool and timeless for every generation versus those things that are pure nostalgia and only seem great because of your childhood memories. Whether it’s Ghostbusters, Star Wars, James Bond, Super Mario, Star Trek, or Marvel Comics vs DC, we cover all our favorite things from the 70s, 80s, 90s, and 2000s. After each of us present an item related to the episode’s topic, the group votes to decide whether it is still Cool or Just Nostalgic.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
