I recently started watching Little House on the Prairie with my 7 year old daughter and we are both LOVING IT! It was a little before my childhood, but I'm loving seeing simpler times and such strong family messages in the episodes!
My kids are watching the entire 9 season episode series of Little House on the Prairie. They're already on season 9. Just be warned, there's episodes you will want to pre-screen before your 7 year old watches them. Specifically the episodes titled "Sylvia," "Rage," and "Home Again" deal with very hard and downright inappropriate topics. There are others that are rough, too. Prescreen most of the 2 part episodes. They are often the ones with the harder topics. But sometimes the single episodes are rough too. Overall, it's a great series. Just watch with caution.
I was born in 1988 like Rachel, so i totally relate to this! I was a nickelodeon kid for sure. I was obsessed the Olsen Twins. Its crazy how nostalgic our generation is, more than any other generation i think.
‘87 baby here: this totally brought me back in time! Loved this episode - I think I had a goofy smile plastered on my face the whole time I was listening. 😂 Well done!
I still have my how the west was fun on VHS and have a VCR lol I remember butterfly clips and milky pens with the black acid paper. Then it went to gel pens.
Thank you for producing a fun and relatable financial podcast. Although I've been a subscriber to Dave for years, I recently decided to take my future and finances seriously and started watching him again. I got introduced to you and as a fellow 30-something year old, I'm hooked! Never stop. You make money managing fun!
Best episode ever!!! 😂 I’m an ‘87 baby and I just took a trip back to my childhood…. Especially tomogotchi, Olsen twins, Sega, zig zag hair parts and and butterfly clips! My most wanted Christmas present ever was the life-sized Susie stretch doll that attaches to your hands and feet and the lite brite 😅 and let’s not forget Lisa Frank! I worry my kids won’t have the same childhood memories like us…. They’ll just remember technology/screens!
By far!! My favorite episode! Thank you for taking me back to my childhood! I’m an “older” millennial who was born in ‘84. I haven’t missed an episode yet!
Born in 1970... It was a great time! So many cool things- but Star Wars hit me as a 7 year old young boy and made a life long impact! I graduated high school in 1989... I'm a proud Gen X baby! Keep up the great work y'all- love this show and I'm so happy y'all have it on video!!!
I was born in 2001, but I remember the finger skateboards because all my friends and I were obsessed with them, and my sister and I both absolutely LOVED the popcorn shirts. I also remember when we would go to blockbuster, but then we stopped going after Netflix started being able to just ship a movie disc or show disc to our house lol. And I have the original Molly American girl doll. I remember as a kid when I first discovered the books at the library and then my parents bought my Molly for Christmas 🥹❤️
Making mixtapes off the radio, rich kids had soda pop in their fridge. High fructose corn syrup and cheap soda ($1 per liter-2liter didn’t exist) didn’t come til later. Brooke Shields and Calvin Klein jeans.
1981 here!! I remember all these things you're talking about. And seeing all these things coming back is CRAZY!!! I went through this over the last 10 years because all the 80s things came back also. I still own have a combo VHS / DVD player !! Plus I have a portable tape player and a portable cd player that I just found at my parent's house...both still work. And my daughter uses my old tape/cd/radio player in her room and she thinks it the best!!
I was born in the 90s & now I resell 90s clothing (a lot of things from my childhood home & my relatives!)…can confirm. People will pay TOP dollar for a shirt that sold for $15 back then. I love that they can find something that brings them a sense of calm. I personally believe it’s back in such a big way because that’s when things were so easy for us! Nostalgia is calming 😊
This is the norm. As young people start to hit middle age and start having kids they become fascinated with their youth. It’s always a 20 year gap. The 70’s was fascinated with the 50’s and so on and so on
The device Rachel was tlkaing about as her best gift ever as a 90's kid was a Talkboy. The one Kevin had in Home Alone was a Talkboy and the pink one was a Talkgirl.
Sometimes when you add to cart and let it sit for a day or 3, the company will send you a reminder email and sometimes a % off discount for the in cart item.
Oh my gosh! I was born in '83, I have a level of nostalgia about the 90's that is truly disgusting. If I could go back to live in any decade (the age I am now) it would 1000% be the 90's. I watched every single one of those TGIF shows too! Oh my gosh! This episode reeeally took me back! I feel like the 90's had the perfect amount of everything, and there was a simplicity to things that we definitely don't have now. Gosh, don't I love it. Also, Jonathan Taylor Thomas was also my teen/90's crush!!!! And Stawberries was my very favorite music store!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Best Episode EVER! So fun to take a road trip down amnesia lane. Loved the part about browsing Blockbuster. Makes me wonder if the lack of physical browsing in stores these days leads to mental health issues, because everything is so available all the time and there is no need to be curious about what you MIGHT find through browsing.
our local movie rental place went out of business in 2022. we were one of the hand full of people still going there. i love renting movie especially at christmas time. the blockbuster building turned into a call center but still has the blue. 😢 sad times.
Falling on the floor laughing when George seems surprised at being called vintage. I was born in 1960, turning 63 this year...same age as Dave. Imagine how old I feel. At this point, I'm closer to being antique. Used to work in tech innovation and I predict the demise of TV monitors. Images will just be projected onto any flat surface or a thin rollable HD screen you can take anywhere.
George! Windbreakers was the first thing that popped in my mind and to hear you say it out loud moments later made me happy down to my core. Well done!
I am a baby boomer and I still watch DVD's. I live out in the country and sometimes the internet goes out or they don't have movies I like. My daughter bought me a new DVD player for Christmas 😊
Born in 1989 and this episode was great! Remembered it all! I remember when my mom got me and my sister a Super Nintendo console when I was little at this department store called Ames 😅 it was the last one at the top shelf in the electronics department and my little butt kept jumping and down pointing up to the shelf so the employee can grab it. I miss those days!
Netfilx DVD is still around, but sadly, not for long. After our local Blockbuster store went the way of the dinosaur a few years back, I've been getting that iconic red envelope in the mail. But, a few months ago I received an email from Netflix stating that the last DVDs will be shipped out the end of September.
I saw white Dr. Martens at the shoe store while we were back to school shopping, and I almost fainted. Those were the ultimate footwear in middle school!!!
My favorite episode, such great memories. Right there with you Rachel, I miss the 90s and all those great shows. I also still do the zig zag in my hair and get compliments every time 😂 ❤
I absolutely agree that we have lost something with the instant gratification that streaming everything provides. Kids today aren't learning patience and what it's like to wait for and perhaps earn something. I feel so old listening to talk about this. I was a beta tester for Netflix when they first started sending DVD's in the late 90's. I was living in Silicon Valley and a former colleague was working there. Redbox is used heavily here in Maine by people who don't have home internet and cable, or people like my brother who has kids and doesn't bring his own streaming devices when they come to visit my parents who don't have them.
The rachel rapping message was hilarious!!! And I'm George, team backstreet boys all the way!! Went and saw them in concert back in 2019 to live out my 11 year old dreams as a 30 year old. The boys still got it!! 😂😂
In the case of toys r us, they got bought out by an investment group that sold all their most valuable assets, took out huge loans, and left it an indebted husk. It was basically legalized fraud and corporate homicide.
Geez, guys! This Boomer just graduated from a DVD player to a Blu-Ray, lol! However, I got the upgraded version that you can stream through. 😊 And beaded doorways and lava lamps were around in the 70s! I do have a lava lamp today, and I still see beaded curtains for doorways for sale.
This was a fun episode, I was also born in 1989. Media Play was our book/movie/CD store in western New York. Alot of the items you talked about I had or remember. Good times. I feel like the 90s were a great time. Backstreet boys fan all the way George.
Omg I’m so loving this podcast! I remember a lot of these stores. I would definitely go to blockbuster if the brought one to Florida. George I loved compusa
There is a video store in my town that rents dvd and vhs. Its only like $3 for a 5-day rental or $5 for a 2 day rental for a new release. I used to go every week until I discovered the library. Now I borrow any movie new or old for free.
I was in ‘94 and I had almost all the things listed haha! Most of it was still popular in the early 2000’s. I live 20 min from the last blockbuster 😆. You’ve got mail is the best!
I really like this show. I make a point of watching every week. However I have to say although Lava Lamps seem nostalgic for the 90's, I actually vaguely remember lava lamps in the 70's.🤣
My teen loves the Sabrina the Teenage Witch tv series and movies. We love Salem. I am 10 years older than Rachel. I am an 80s kid, but a 90s teen. I grew up with both. So I usually get all the references. Alot of it is coming back. We have butterfly clips in our bathroom drawer.
I got the Delia’s catalog too Rachel!! Oh Tommy Hilfiger, Guess, Calvin Klein and Polo Ralph Lauren 👍 did y’all have Gadzooks? Maybe was a local store in Iowa? Oh the boombox’s and cd walkmans while on road trips down to Arkansas 🎶 shoot, we still mainly buy and watch dvds! LOVED going to Blockbuster and Hollywood video!! Ahhh memories. Miss that 😔 times sure have changed. Missed the ol simpler times. Shoot, and they weren’t even the most simple times.
My husband said when he was younger that he thought kids that had Dunkaroos were rich. He’d say “they got that Dunkaroo money!!”🤣
right!? we never had them. 😂
Same here. If you got those or lunch shoes then you had money.

The answering machine rap was everything. 😂 😂

Dude you weren’t kidding- the NOSTALGIA!!!!!
‘87 baby here: this totally brought me back in time! Loved this episode - I think I had a goofy smile plastered on my face the whole time I was listening. 😂 Well done!
I still have my how the west was fun on VHS and have a VCR lol
I remember butterfly clips and milky pens with the black acid paper. Then it went to gel pens.
I had Polly pockets the whole collection and just recently sold for $350. I was shocked!

The Easy Bake Oven would have to be my favorite 90s Christmas gift.
And from the 70’s as well!!
Best episode ever!!! 😂 I’m an ‘87 baby and I just took a trip back to my childhood…. Especially tomogotchi, Olsen twins, Sega, zig zag hair parts and and butterfly clips!

I worry my kids won’t have the same childhood memories like us…. They’ll just remember technology/screens!
Sorry, but I read that as you saying you were 87! 😂 I actually got married in 1987 and for me to hear myself say it now, I sound ancient!
Same!! Loved Lisa frank and the tamagotchi!!!
By far!! My favorite episode! Thank you for taking me back to my childhood! I’m an “older” millennial who was born in ‘84. I haven’t missed an episode yet!
Oh my goodness, best episode! I was born in 1990 and I remember ALL of it!! 😍
Born in 1970... It was a great time! So many cool things- but Star Wars hit me as a 7 year old young boy and made a life long impact! I graduated high school in 1989... I'm a proud Gen X baby! Keep up the great work y'all- love this show and I'm so happy y'all have it on video!!!
May the 4th be with you!
👊 yeah for the 70s
As a mom of kids born in 1994 and 1997, I loved this episode! Thanks for the memories. I love you two individually and together.
The beads, the lava lamp, the inflatable furniture. Ah yes! And those butterfly clips.....❤😂
I was born in 2001, but I remember the finger skateboards because all my friends and I were obsessed with them, and my sister and I both absolutely LOVED the popcorn shirts.

Worth it to see Rachel fail at beatboxing because of the laugh-wheezing
1981 here!! I remember all these things you're talking about. And seeing all these things coming back is CRAZY!!! I went through this over the last 10 years because all the 80s things came back also.

I love that they can find something that brings them a sense of calm. I personally believe it’s back in such a big way because that’s when things were so easy for us! Nostalgia is calming 😊
The most 90s memory I have was my friend and I singing Lion King songs into her Talkboy 😂
I had a friend who’s answering machine said something and ended with “leave a message after the beep-ba-beep b-b-b-beep” 😂😎
This is the norm. As young people start to hit middle age and start having kids they become fascinated with their youth. It’s always a 20 year gap. The 70’s was fascinated with the 50’s and so on and so on
This was your best video yet! Lol so entertaining!
OMG! I wore JNCOS!!!! Bahahaha This is my favorite episode ever! lol
The device Rachel was tlkaing about as her best gift ever as a 90's kid was a Talkboy. The one Kevin had in Home Alone was a Talkboy and the pink one was a Talkgirl.
I'm with you George, COMP USA!

Delia’s had stores??! I still have copies of those catalogues saved in my little y2k Time Capsule :)
Oh I love this episode. The 90s were the best. Rachel rapping was too much 😂
My son asked for a tech deck for Christmas this past year, so I guess they’re back in! Lol, loved the 80’s (born in 79)
Favorite 90's gift- bean bag chair.
Oh my gosh! I was born in '83, I have a level of nostalgia about the 90's that is truly disgusting. If I could go back to live in any decade (the age I am now) it would 1000% be the 90's.

Makes me wonder if the lack of physical browsing in stores these days leads to mental health issues, because everything is so available all the time and there is no need to be curious about what you MIGHT find through browsing.
The nostalgia is hitting the adults who couldn't afford it as kids, and now sucking them in now that they have disposable income to buy it.
our local movie rental place went out of business in 2022. we were one of the hand full of people still going there. i love renting movie especially at christmas time. the blockbuster building turned into a call center but still has the blue. 😢 sad times.
My 11 year old is SO INTO THIS! She loves y'all! I live in Texas and she wants to go to a live event in Nashville!!
Ok yall are still babies in my book!
We still got Toys r Us up in Canada
We would go to radio shack and play games in the mall while mom got groceries. Loved the 90s and early 2000’s.
It's not Blockbuster, but we still have an active Drive-In Theater nearby. Drive the car into the lot and watch a couple movies. Good memories.
Falling on the floor laughing when George seems surprised at being called vintage. I was born in 1960, turning 63 this year...same age as Dave. Imagine how old I feel.

if you were a car you are an antique
George! Windbreakers was the first thing that popped in my mind and to hear you say it out loud moments later made me happy down to my core. Well done!
Furby!!!! Solid 90's memory haha 🤣💀
We check DVD's out for free at the library. Blockbuster used to cost like $4 for a new release!
I'm from the hippy generation, but my younger kids loved the malls (& all the early tec stuff). I think it's great the '90's are coming back ..
I am a baby boomer and I still watch DVD's. I live out in the country and sometimes the internet goes out or they don't have movies I like. My daughter bought me a new DVD player for Christmas 😊
1984 here! This episode was hilarious and fantastic! 🤣
Born in 1989 and this episode was great! Remembered it all! I remember when my mom got me and my sister a Super Nintendo console when I was little at this department store called Ames 😅 it was the last one at the top shelf in the electronics department and my little butt kept jumping and down pointing up to the shelf so the employee can grab it. I miss those days!
This podcast is so hilarious 😂
I was excited to find a 90s black and teal gym bag in my in laws closet. It is my go to travel bag.
The hack on Blockbuster was to rent it on Thursday before the rush.
Netfilx DVD is still around, but sadly, not for long. After our local Blockbuster store went the way of the dinosaur a few years back, I've been getting that iconic red envelope in the mail. But, a few months ago I received an email from Netflix stating that the last DVDs will be shipped out the end of September.
I love Thursday’s when the new episodes come out! I was a 90s kid so especially loved this one 😃
I saw white Dr. Martens at the shoe store while we were back to school shopping, and I almost fainted. Those were the ultimate footwear in middle school!!!
My favorite episode, such great memories. Right there with you Rachel, I miss the 90s and all those great shows. I also still do the zig zag in my hair and get compliments every time 😂 ❤
This podcast is speaking to my soullll!!! 1990 baby here.
I absolutely agree that we have lost something with the instant gratification that streaming everything provides.

They were super poor back then and Dave was starting to build his wealth back up, so how'd they afford all that cool stuff?
We're both '88 babies and are loving the 90's return! I will listen to Haddaway as much as I want 😁 xx
Rachel, you are such a shining star! 😂😂 When you're having a good laugh, it's so hilarious and adorable to see!! 😃😃😃 Makes me laugh
1987…. Sabrina the teenage witch is on Hulu and I’ve had a blast rewatching it lol 😂
This episode has earned a Subscribe and Like. Y'all are great. This is so good. Very funny and informative.
Just bought a shirt with my favorite G.I. Joe characters; no regrets…
George I am so excited to hear that you watched you’ve got mail! That is my favorite movie and I named my dog Brinkley after Joe Fox’s dog
In the case of toys r us, they got bought out by an investment group that sold all their most valuable assets, took out huge loans, and left it an indebted husk. It was basically legalized fraud and corporate homicide.
Born in 1991 and this episode was the greatest venture into the way back machine. Love this! ❤
Oh my God. As soon as she asked the question about the gift, my mind went right to the pink talk back as well. 😂 I loved that gift!
Love this episode!! You guys are great ❤
One of the top episodes yet 🫰
Very funny as I'm a child of the 1970s - a lot of repeats. I met my husband in 1992 and he's all I remember from the 90s 😊
1988 here!!! This episode brought back so much nostalgia.❤
Geez, guys! This Boomer just graduated from a DVD player to a Blu-Ray, lol! However, I got the upgraded version that you can stream through. 😊
And beaded doorways and lava lamps were around in the 70s! I do have a lava lamp today, and I still see beaded curtains for doorways for sale.

My kid watched Matilda last night and loved it 👏👏
Omg I’m so loving this podcast! I remember a lot of these stores. I would definitely go to blockbuster if the brought one to Florida. George I loved compusa
confession night...oh boy :)) love the vulnerability in your family Rachel
There is a video store in my town that rents dvd and vhs. Its only like $3 for a 5-day rental or $5 for a 2 day rental for a new release.
I used to go every week until I discovered the library. Now I borrow any movie new or old for free.
I was in ‘94 and I had almost all the things listed haha! Most of it was still popular in the early 2000’s. I live 20 min from the last blockbuster 😆. You’ve got mail is the best!
Awesome episode down memory lane from a fellow 90s Kid!
I really like this show. I make a point of watching every week. However I have to say although Lava Lamps seem nostalgic for the 90's, I actually vaguely remember lava lamps in the 70's.🤣
Redbox is great deal still today! $2 for Blu-ray compared to $6 streaming rental. Pick up at grocery store
My teen loves the Sabrina the Teenage Witch tv series and movies. We love Salem. I am 10 years older than Rachel. I am an 80s kid, but a 90s teen. I grew up with both. So I usually get all the references. Alot of it is coming back. We have butterfly clips in our bathroom drawer.
Loved the podcast guys!!!
I had glow in the dark stars…also Salute Your Shorts on Nickelodeon, I also had my own line, also what about Fresh Prince…
This is my favorite podcast
I got the Delia’s catalog too Rachel!!
Oh Tommy Hilfiger, Guess, Calvin Klein and Polo Ralph Lauren 👍 did y’all have Gadzooks? Maybe was a local store in Iowa? Oh the boombox’s and cd walkmans while on road trips down to Arkansas 🎶 shoot, we still mainly buy and watch dvds! LOVED going to Blockbuster and Hollywood video!! Ahhh memories. Miss that 😔 times sure have changed. Missed the ol simpler times. Shoot, and they weren’t even the most simple times.
Love this podcast
1989, y’all!!! You brought back so much nostalgia!
Great show. Love the 90s. I remember Strawberry clothing store & KB toys.
If you can catch Rachel with a laughing spit-take, -- that would go viral. 🤣
‘87 baby right here, I can still hear the dial up internet and remember the Charlotte Hornets Jacket!
My family had a blockbuster subscription thay was similar to netflix where you had unlimited dvd rentals.
Had the same reaction as Rachel about Sports Authority. I had no idea it was gone!!
What a fantastic episode! ❤
An alternating title would be.. growing up rich versus growing up poor haha 😭😂
86’ here and Omgah this episode was hilarious!
Rachel is my soul sister. Hey soul sister! '86 baby here.
My 2007 daughter like Mary Kate and Ashley movie for a hot minute when she was 8 or 10 lol. Your kids may like it, Rachel.
