Welcome to Episode 5 of "The Retro Rewind Experience," your one-stop nostalgia shop for all things GenX!

This week, your host Mat, together with co-host Hal Hefner, delve deep into the thrilling and often hilarious world of urban legends that every GenXer heard, regardless of their hometown.

Did blowing on a Nintendo cartridge really help the game to load? Was the 'Three Men and a Baby' house truly haunted? Did our beloved Life Cereal's Mikey meet his end due to a fizzy concoction of Pop Rocks and Coca Cola? And the most controversial question of all time: Was the moon landing an elaborate hoax?

Join us for a light-hearted romp down memory lane as we bust the myths and unveil the truths that shaped an entire generation's whispers and playground tales. We're saving the biggest urban myth for last, so don't miss out!
