Dan, Manny, & Billy invited The Fandalorians to put the 1985 Sci-fi/Comedy classic to the ultimate test—THE NOSTALGIA TEST! “We are making a lot of dark backstories to this movie.” -Mr. McDonald We had so much fun with the guys from The Fandalorians on this episode digging into all the ins and outs, the conspiracy theories, and our memories of Back to the Future. It's just six dudes from Long Island trying to answer some really important questions like how the hell did Marty meet Doc Brown, is this better time traveling than Bill & Ted's, the confusing family dynamics between Marty and his family and Lorraine (Lea Thompson) and her family, Billy Zane, why would the time lines change this way in the end, and can we figure out what's up with Mount Airey Lodge and The Commack Motor Inn. Seriously though, this is one of our favorite conversations and we're so grateful for the guys of The Fandalorians for coming on and being part of the Nostalgia Test chaos.   Email us (thenostalgiatest@gmail.com) your thoughts, opinions, and questions about this episode or anything else nostalgic on your mind and we'll read it for next time on the pod!   By day, Mr. Richardson, Mr. McDonald, and Mr. G. are dedicated educators shaping young minds. By night, they become The Fandalorians—diving into movies, TV, sports, comics, and everything pop culture… with plenty of laughs, hot takes, and relentless trolling of each other along the way. It's Teachers by Day, Nerds by Night—where fandom meets faculty lounge, and no opinion is safe.   https://linktr.ee/thefandalorianspod       APPROXIMATE RUN OF SHOW: 00:00 Introduction and Nostalgia Test Setup 01:11 Welcoming the Guests 01:48 Mount Airy Lodge Anecdote 03:13 Introducing the Fan DeLorean 06:23 Back to the Future: Initial Thoughts 09:37 Memories and First Impressions 19:20 Time Travel and Plot Holes 35:12 Marty's Family Dynamics 43:58 Analyzing the Timeline: When Did It Happen? 44:45 The Creepy Kid and the Neighbors 45:09 The Pants Mystery: How Did They Come Off? 46:10 Dark Backstories and Theories 46:58 Graffiti and Budget Trivia 47:52 Billy Zane and Casting Choices 48:43 Biff's Transformation and Timeline Changes 54:09 Doc's Plan and Time Travel Mechanics 57:07 Marty's Selfishness and Rock 'n' Roll 59:11 The Future and Family Dynamics 01:03:53 Theories and What-If Scenarios 01:10:47 Rick and Morty Connections 01:20:11 Final Thoughts and Nostalgia Test   Book The Nostalgia Test Podcast Bring The Nostalgia Test Podcast's high energy fun and comedy on your podcast, to host your themed parties & special events!  The Nostalgia Test Podcast will create an unforgettable Nostalgic experience for any occasion because we are the party!

You’ll believe a man can be good. Superman is back, Lois! And this time he’s not Space Jesus. He’s a good man trying to do the best he can in a world more complicated than this hero was created to address. Still, he perseveres and inspires others to do their best too. This version of Superman isn’t without flaws. Neither in the character nor the film. But, gosh, is it sincere. Can’t get much more punk than sincerity. Dan Moren, John Moltz and Guy English.

LATIN FOR RED???? 13:50 - Mammon - Matthew 6:24, Devil of Covetovness or Demon of Greed (medieval and Milton - lowercase) (in hebrew meant money, modern hebrew. = wealth), , unjust worldly gain - ANNOTATION is partly WRONG, But there WAS a Syrian God of Wealth 19:45 - AAah Voo DEER-ray zhuh - Basically Twinkle Twinkle Little Star - the easiest piece of music one could learn to play. Mozart had done one of his 12 variations (though, personally, I'm partial to Tom Lehrer's )  21:25 - She could “trace out patterns very nicely for Muslin Embroidery, by dint of placing a piece of silver-paper over the design to be copied, and holding both against the window-pane, while she marked the scollop and eyelet-holes”. ANNOTATION SAYS “Probably which used scalloped edges and a pattern of holes sewn round with thread like a button-hole.“ 22:55 - a Celestial Globe to learn simple astronomy/constellations 24:35 - - think of , but you have to COUNT THE THREADS in a muslin or light canvas backing.

A little late due to travel and holiday plans but we’re here with our coverage of the first three episode of Marvel’s Ironheart. We pick up with Riri Williams at MIT and things go off the rails from there as she finds herself embroiled in a life of “fun crime with whacky characters” which, it turns out, isn’t all fun and games. There’s some interesting themes brewing under the sufrace here, some highs and lows, and we’re prompted to ask the question—is Han Solo a weenie? Dan Moren, John Moltz and Guy English.

In this special Pregnantish Pride episode, we're honored to welcome Trystan Reese — speaker, educator, and trailblazing trans dad — for a candid conversation about parenthood, advocacy, and what it means to build a family in a non-linear way. Trystan made headlines as a transgender man to publicly share his journey of carrying a biological child. But behind the media frenzy was a deeply personal decision — rooted in love and the desire to expand his family with his partner, Biff. While his story was often sensationalized, Trystan has remained committed to educating others and speaking out, not just for himself, but for the broader trans community — especially trans women, who he says too often bear the brunt of bias and misinformation.In this episode, Trystan reflects on how his family — which includes three beautiful children, two through adoption — is both ordinary and extraordinary. He opens up about the need for fertility clinics to better understand trans patients, the harmful assumptions people make, and why it's so important to amplify positive stories about trans families, especially in a time of rising negativity and erasure.As Trystan puts it, his family — like so many others — took the broken shards of glass life gave them and turned them into a beautiful mosaic. Thanks to our episode sponsor, Ferring Pharmaceuticals' Fertility Out Loud and Director of Fertility Coaching, Connie Stark, for sharing the importance of fertility coaching for all aspiring parents, including LGBTQ+ individuals and couples.
