With great memory comes great responsibility.

Get you parachutes packed and load up your glovatrix! We're going to Megakat city where the cops are militarized and the villains are ridiculously wacky!

Now the story of a TV show about a wealthy family...And the podcast hosts that had no choice but praise it like Mitch Hurwitz was the Shakespeare of TV shows. That's right...it's Out_of_Memory's Arrested Development episode. Christopher and AJ explore all the inside jokes and easter anns that the show has to offer and re-experiences the entire first three seasons. You don't have to do that if you want to prep for this episode but we don't not recommend it! The cult phenomenon is quite dense so strap in for a super-sized episode!

Merry Holidays Friends, Family and Listener!  The melody of the season is whistling through the bare trees and ushering in the time of the Claus!

The Boys are Out of Memory and they're analyzing where Santa belongs in their brains. The 'gifts' you'll receive in the form of knowledge will be the origin of the fat man, both in reality and ad-based, the existence of the Christmas spirit in other cultures and, of course, Santa's pal Krampus!

When one sets out to create something, it is assumed that one is not trying to piss off the totality of a fan base. But it is not known what lies within the mind of such an evil genius such as George Lucas. The entire Star Wars universe was birthed from his brain; what else could be lurking in the dark corners of his galaxy? Anyway, thanks for the first three, George! Your Out of Memory boys are talking Star Wars this week! But there is no Luke or Leia or even Han Solo (Ford or Ehrenreich). They're taking it all the way back to the prequels, specifically Episode 1! This is the movie that started the love/hate relationship with this franchise if you don't count the Ewoks. Chris and AJ talk about the reedits of the movie in an attempt to salvage it, the unnecessary inclusion of politics as the primary conflict and of course Podracing! Also the tragically underused Darth Maul. They had a horrible time rewatching it for your enjoyment! So Enjoy, dammit! And may the Force be with you!   Follow Out of Memory on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook @outofmemorypod Please send us email!

The sun sets and the moon glows perilously bright. Stone skin illuminates and cracks as once again the Defenders of the Night shatter their craggy cocoons. They stretch their wings and flex their stiff muscles. What fresh danger awaits them in this strange city of New York? Whatever it is, they will face it as a clan. They are Gargoyles! This was one of Chris and AJ's favorite episodes to record! They excavate their memories of a treasured cartoon from the nineties, Gargoyles, and revel in the twists and turns of this masterpiece. The clan's all here: Goliath, Hudson, Brooklyn, Broadway, Lexington, Bronx, Angela and Elisa Maza! Plus all the bad guys! They discuss the serialized and complicated nature of the season arcs, the historical context of gargoyles and why, oh why, Disney canceled such an amazing show! Enjoy!

And on the pedestal, these words appear: 'My name is Blockbuster, King of Video Rentals; Look on my Racks, ye Mighty, and despair!' Nothing beside remains.   It's a sad day when a part of your childhood shutters their doors, be it Blockbuster, Hollywood Video, KB Toys or even the indoor playplace Discovery Zone. But Chris and AJ are Open for Business this episode with their fond and not so fond memories of these relics of the past. Do they deserve a place in our memory still or can we erase them just as they have been erased from the building fronts?

Mutagenic ooze is a funny thing, don't ya know. It's like the old saying goes: Whatever kind of animal you're near when you're oozed, you'll turn into it. That's what they say in ye olde sewers of the 1980s. Also, never trust a man who's dressed like a tin can opener. That's just sensible advice in any situation. And perhaps I might be so bold as to say: Stay Radical. Chris and AJ are tackling a cutural behemoth here so be patient with them; there's a hell of a lot of ground to cover. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was a touchstone of many 80s children and have stuck with your hosts. In this episode they deal with the Animated Series and the Playmates Toy Line! Enjoy!

A single ray of sun sneaks through the blinds. The day slowly washes over the beer bottles, shot glasses and sticky spots of mystery that linger on the table after a night of unbridled frivolity just as fallen soldiers litter the bloody battlefield. The night may have infused the imbibers with superhuman story-telling abilities but the light of the morning rips that all away.  Christopher and AJ are joined by a Very Special Guest, Girl On Couch, as they navigate their memories of drinking as younger people and then re-experience those poisons all over again. Back to back. Without chasers. They give you the recipes so you can drink along with the group but it's our professional opinion that you not join these dummies. Cheers! And Happy St. Patrick's Day!

In the Wild West of Childhood, candy was currency and whoever held the most was king! Then, I suppose, the candy store would have been the saloon...and our bikes would have been the horses... This isn't a perfect analogy but we're sticking with it. Candy is sometimes sticky. On this cavity-inducing episode, Christopher and AJ chomp into a pile of their own candy memories! Candy ran their lives, ruined their appetites and gave them tummy aches on certain spooky holidays. But we bet you don't remember all the insane and banned candy from back in the day. The boys also research the new, crazy candy trends for which you'll wanna keep your sweet tooth pristine! So brush them teeths, take a shot of insulin and enjoy Out of Memory!

For all you know Christopher and AJ were and still are the most romantic gentlemen on the planet. And they learned every lesson they know from a little film from the 90s called Titanic! Jack is chivalrous, impulsive, he's from Wisconsin. What we're trying to convey here in this blurb about the episode that no one reads is that Celine Dion is a national treasure and we're keeping her. That's right, Canada. Come fight us! Enjoy our super romantic Valentine's Day episode about the only romantic movie we could think of seeing in our childhood years: Titanic! Reference Links!

The Mushroom Kingdom was in danger! No one could stand up to Bowser's reign of terror and save the princess! That is until Mario and, to a lesser extent, his brother, Luigi, came along! And after that Chris and AJ came along and played the hell out of all the Super Mario Bros. games!

A belch is but a gentle wind  That cometh from the heart,  But when it takes a downward turn  It then becomes a fart. Christopher and AJ are releasing all that they remember and all that they know about the gaseous taboo known as farts! Little boys are made of snips and snails and puppy dog tails but those are all filled with the noxious gasses we are discussing in this episode.  After the break, we get way more mature and delve into our research on famous farts, terrible toots, and the pioneering pooters of the Smelly Stage! We got Bottom Blasts busting Out Of our Memory! Enjoy!

This is the beginning of a new conversation between two old friends. Out of Memory opens up what we remember from our childhood, pushes an update on us and then we decide whether we want to uninstall or archive these memories. In other words, we reminisce and either praise or pan the damn thing!  In our first episode, we talk about a little known cgi transformers cartoon from the '90s called Beast Wars!
