Don't catch dysentery on the Oregon Trail. What spelled doom for McDonaldland? Some of the most accomplished musicians nominated for a Golden Raspberry Award.
Episode 153 brings all the nostalgia you could possibly want.
The show kicks off with a favorite memory of many school-aged kids of the 1980s and 1990s. Oregon Trail was more than just a fun game that taught kids to avoid dysentery and to watch out for broken wagon wheels on the prairie. It was an educational game that helped teach critical thinking and encourage social interaction. We will take a deeper look at this classic game.
Years ago fast food restaurants catered toward the younger generation with colorful characters and bright cheery facades of their buildings. No establishment epitomized this as much as McDonald's. In the 1970s they revolutionized the way fast food was sold with their unique, and a bit trippy, McDonaldland. Then slowly it faded away. We go way Back In the Day to look at the events that led to the demise of McDonaldland.
Even the greatest of the great can have off days or perceived off days. In the new Top 5 we will look at some of the most beloved and accomplished musical acts ever, who also just happened to have been nominated for a Razzie Award for Worst Song.
There is also a new This Week In History and Time Capsule centered around the first official Tom and Jerry cartoon.
