Back Row 410 – 412 | Nostalgia Effect

Oct 28, 2021
The Back Row Morning Show

About This Episode

Nostalgia is a powerful feeling. It has the power to transport you back in time, reliving exhilarating memories of our childhoods, feeling all the feelings that brought us so much joy in the past, spending hours re-walking the steps we took back then – all in the blink of an eye upon hearing a familiar word, catching a familiar scent, or seeing a teenager wearing the same thing I wore in high school like it’s a brand new trend. This week, Radio Matt & Mo are reliving the past, having a bit of fun bringing up old nonsense, and discussing why nostalgia is important.

Since joining Love Thy Nerd, Radio Matt & Mo have been exploring the depths of their nerdiness. But they have also come to realize that there are several areas where their nerdiness comes up… shallow. Of course, not all nerds like all nerd things, but it's never a bad time to try to expand our knowledge on subject we don’t understand. This week, Radio Matt & Mo will be taking a deeper look into parts of nerd culture they are less familiar with and see if there is something there that interests them.

E3 used to be the summer’s most exciting time for video games with all the press conferences from the biggest developers, but over time it’s slowly gone downhill with this year having no E3 at all. From going from an industry only show to one that’s completely open to fans and having some disappointing announcements, it seems like companies just didn’t want to be a part of it anymore.
