Get ready for a blast from the past on this episode of Nostalgia Junkies! We kick things off with some exciting news: Paramount is officially developing a new Power Rangers movie, and we're diving deep into the ultimate fan casting, featuring our dream team from Cobra Kai.

Next, we tackle the age-old debate in our This or That segment, brought to you by Throwback Buys (use code NJPod for 15% off your order!). We pit Pokemon against Digimon, Sunny D against Tang, and Street Fighter II against Mortal Kombat – the results might surprise you!

But the real meat of this episode lies in a deep dive into the legendary game developer, Rareware. We explore their incredible history, from their humble beginnings with Battletoads and Beetlejuice to their groundbreaking work on the SNES with Donkey Kong Country. We'll discuss the rise and fall of their iconic franchises, including Banjo-Kazooie and Conker, and delve into the controversial Microsoft acquisition.

And to top it all off, we're ranking the ultimate 90s snacks: think Hi-C Ecto Cooler, Bubble Jug, 3D Doritos, and so much more.

This episode is a nostalgia-fueled journey you won't want to miss!
