Pop Culture Preservation Society

De: Pop Culture Preservation Society
  • Resumen

  • The Pop Culture Preservation Society is a podcast dedicated to preserving and elevating the unsung pop culture nuggets of the classic Gen X childhood. Were you there when Marcia broke her nose? Tiger Beat delivered the news? And John Travolta was stuck in that plastic bubble? Then this is the podcast for you!

    Join enthusiastic fangirls Carolyn, Kristin and Michelle — die-hard members of the Big Wheel Generation — as we discuss and dissect the crushes, clothes, books, movies, songs, tv and toys that shaped our youth. We’ll also chat about the role nostalgia plays in our lives and how recalling these positive memories increases our sense of connectedness and well-being. And really, isn’t that something we could all use a little more of right now?

    We hope you’ll join us as we wrap ourselves in the comfort of many of the pop culture moments that defined us when we were younger … and still bring us joy all these years later.

    Nanu nanu, keep on truckin', and may the force be with you all!

  • More Sunny Days of Sesame Street
    Apr 21 2025

    We're back with an encore presentation of our tribute to Sesame Street with the added bonus of a surprisingly serious conversation inspired by a New York Times article about the demise of creative jobs for Gen Xers. If you went into a creative field as a young adult in the 90s, you have likely seen a tsunami of change in your industry, sometimes to the point of extinction. Once again, Gen Xers have to adapt and change and persevere with little to no help. Hashtag late stage latchkeyism.

    And perhaps your creative dreams were fueled by Sesame Street in early childhood? If so, here's what you'll find in today's episode...

    How do you get to Sesame Street? With us! Join us as we celebrate and honor the sunny days of Sesame Street — OUR Sesame Street — the OG!! We’re remembering those first years and all the things that have been living RENT FREE in our heads for decades: All the humans we loved (including TWO Gordons!) … the muppets … the kids … and the songs. And NEXT WEEK we’ll be ranking the top 10 sketches as determined by our listeners. It’s a two-week Sesame Street-palozza love-fest that will sweep all your clouds away!

  • The PCPS Sings Along with "Free To Be...You and Me (and Marlo!)"
    Apr 14 2025

    Come with me, take my hand, and we'll ruuuuuuunnnnnn..... to Amherst, Massachusets for a gathering of PCPS listeners at the first-ever Free to Be You and Me museum exhibit and singalong at the Eric Carle Museum of Picturebook Art. It was .... how shall we say... EPIC? People have feelings about what could be the most important album for anyone born between the years 1965 and 1980. There was crying. Lots of it. PCPS listeners met each other and formed friendships, we held hands and sang our hearts out, and -- in a surprise plot twist -- we even sang those words side by side with the woman who created it all -- the legendary Marlo Thomas. In other words ... there are no words. Just listen.

I’m OBSESSED!

If you’re in your 50’s this podcast is something you won’t want to miss! It’s funny and thoughtful at the same time. I’ve literally laughed and cried while listening. Kristen, Michelle and Caroline feel like my new best friends and I reminisce about my own childhood as they talk about theirs.
