Podcasts about Dance Dance Revolution

Gianmarco Soresi takes a seat in The Wayback as we head to 1990s Potomac, Maryland! (check out his podcast "The Downside"). With two Maryland natives in the wayback, we reminisce about what it was like living through two of the craziest events in Maryland history: the Air Florida Flight 90 disaster and the D.C. Sniper. Then Gianmarco gets nostalgic about theater camp, and 90s toys and video games like Power Rangers, Mario Paint, and Dance Dance Revolution.  We also get into some of the great late 90s pro wrestling characters, like D-Generation X, The Undertaker, Mankind and Mr. Socko.  Lastly, we do a deep dive on 90s home fitness crazes, like P90x , the Ab Roller, Abflex, 8-minute Abs, and Tony Little.   BALTIMORE!

In 1999: The Year Low Culture Conquered America and Kickstarted our Bizarre Times (2025, University of Kansas Press) journalist Ross Benes examines low culture in the late 1990s. From pro wrestling and Pokémon to Vince McMahon and Jerry Springer, Benes reveals its profound impact and how it continues to affect our culture and society today.  The year 1999 was a high-water mark for popular culture. According to one measure, it was the "best movie year ever." But as Benes shows, the end of the '90s was also a banner year for low culture. This was the heyday of Jerry Springer, Jenna Jameson, and Vince McMahon, among many others. Low culture had come into its own and was poised for world domination. The reverberations of this takeover continue to shape American society. During its New Year's Eve countdown, MTV entered 1999 with Limp Bizkit covering Prince's famous anthem to the new year. The highlights of the lowlights continued when WCW and WWE drew 35 million American viewers each week with sex appeal and stories about insurrections. Insane Clown Posse emerged from the underground with a Woodstock set and platinum records about magic and murder. Later that year, Dance Dance Revolution debuted in North America and Grand Theft Auto emerged as a major video game franchise. Beanie Babies and Pokemon so thoroughly seized the wallets and imagination of collectors that they created speculative investment bubbles that anticipated the faddish obsession over nonfungible tokens (NFTs). The trashy talk show Jerry Springer became daytime TV's most-watched program and grew so mainstream that Austin Powers, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, The Wayans Bros., The Simpsons, and The X-Files incorporated Springer into their own plots during the late '90s. Donald Trump even explored a potential presidential nomination with the Reform Party in 1999 and wanted his running mate to be Oprah Winfrey, whose own talk show would make Dr. Oz a household name. Among Springer's many guests were porn stars who, at the end of the millennium, were pursuing sex records in a bid for stardom as the pornography industry exploded, aided by sex scandals, new technology, and the drug Viagra, which marked its first full year on the US market in 1999.  According to Benes, there are many lessons to learn from the year that low culture conquered the world. Talk shows and reality TV foreshadowed the way political movements grab power by capturing our attention. Pro wrestling mastered the art of "kayfabe"--the agreement to treat something as real and genuine when it is not--before it spread throughout American society, as political contests, corporate public relations campaigns, and nonprofit fundraising schemes have become their own wrestling matches that require a suspension of disbelief. Beanie Babies and Pokémon demonstrate capitalism's resiliency as well as its vulnerabilities. Legal and technological victories obtained by early internet pornographers show how the things people are ashamed of have the ability to influence the world. Insane Clown Posse's creation of loyal Juggalos illustrates the way religious and political leaders are able to generate faithful followers by selling themselves as persecuted outsiders. And the controversy over video game violence reveals how every generation finds new scapegoats. 1999 is not just a nostalgic look at the past. It is also a window into our contentious present.

WDIY Wind Creek Event Center Michael Bernadyn of RE/MAX Real Estate Molly’s Irish Grille & Sports Pub Banko Beverage Company Episode Recap: Dance Dance Revolution might seem like a relic of the early 2000s, but for the Whitehall DDR community, it's anything but. Every Thursday night, this group gathers at Dave & Buster's to celebrate their love for the game, from Eurobeat music to challenging footwork. In this episode, hosts George Wacker and Jeff Warren explore what keeps this community moving. Finding Connection through DDR The episode opens with stories from players like Chris, who has been playing DDR for 20 years, and Emily, who joined the scene to make new friends. For many, DDR is more than a game—it's a way to connect, improve, and push themselves. “Everyone here is supportive,” Chris shares. “No one's judging you, no matter your skill level.” The Comeback That Never Left DDR may have dipped in popularity over the years, but the community insists it never really went away. Alex reflects on the joy of seeing new players discover the game: “Watching kids' faces light up the way mine did when I first played is what makes it all worth it.” Exercise, Music, and Fun For Angeline, DDR is the perfect mix of cardio, movement, and rhythm. “It's not just a video game—it's a workout. It's good cardio, and the music is amazing,” she explains. From Eurodance to classic tracks like Butterfly, the soundtrack is a big part of the draw. An Open Invitation The community at Dave & Buster's is open and welcoming to everyone. “If you're on the fence, just try it,” Tony encourages. “When I started, I was horrible, but the most important thing is to have fun and push yourself.” Looking Ahead With events like a major tournament planned at the Philadelphia Round1 in June, the DDR scene in Pennsylvania is growing stronger. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned player, the Whitehall group invites you to join the fun every Thursday night. episode transcript

When I graduated high school I felt that I had already missed the boat on numerous things I had always wanted to do. Things like learning a foreign language, a new instrument, or juggling. I had read somewhere that the human brain reaches a point where it stops growing, and thus your ability to learn complicated tasks with any meaningful proficiency disappears. Forever. This seemed backed up by what I perceived as a truism about mathematics; that all great magicians produce their best work before they turn 25. (Shout out to my sophomore year high school math teacher, who killed my love of math.)I bring this all up because it was such an easy thing to fall into, this idea that your brain calcifies and you are stuck being what you are at 20 for the rest of your life. Now having lived almost twice that span I can assure you that such things are nonsense. And I have video games to thank for that.When I was in my early twenties I lived with a bunch of flatmates, and many of them played video games. I had dabbled in Xbox and PC gaming in high school, but had not planned on continuing the hobby into my adult life. Consoles were expensive, and a recent brush with the absolute time-sink of World of Warcraft had me a bit gunshy of anything involving repeated activity and a screen. Enter Guitar Hero. Many nights after work I would come home to a living room full of exuberant drunk friends taking turns shredding away at rock and roll hits with an oversize controller shaped like a guitar. Guitar hero is a beat-matching game, similar to Dance Dance Revolution, where you press combinations of buttons to match a pattern being shown on screen. If you match correctly the song continues to play, the on-screen crowd cheers, and the beguiling illusion that you are making the music is conjured. I was hooked at once. It felt like anyone could be a rockstar, even me!It all came to a crashing halt one evening when I had someone cute over. I fired up Guitar Hero and flawlessly shredded my way through “Sweet Child of Mine.” Instead of being impressed, my crush playfully said, “Imagine if you'd spent as many hours practicing the real guitar as you did playing that game.” A crushing disappointment to be sure, and yet, also a revelation of sorts. I'm sad to say I didn't exactly get the broader point at that moment, choosing instead to take the advice literally. That night as I lay in bed, I estimated the total hours I had practiced Guitar Hero, roughly 150, and decided I would spend that much time learning to play guitar. The next day I made a little chart, bought a cheap guitar, and started practicing.I finished my 150 hours in about two months and was surprised at how well I could play the guitar. Nothing special, but enough to entertain my friends and play simple comedy songs at local open mics. I had discovered the idea of grinding. Just like in a video game, where you can decide to apply a given amount of your time to “leveling up,” you can do it in real life. I have since applied this mentality to learning to juggle, performing close-up magic, and playing accordion, all with great success. But to date, my biggest achievement was finally learning a foreign language.When I launched myself into the project of moving to Norway for a year to study wooden boat building, I also committed to learning the language. To that end I spent roughly 500 hours studying Norwegian prior to moving. I accomplished this via a variety of means including, books, films, television, internet courses, podcasts, and, yes, Duolingo. Although I must confess this last one had little utility beyond expanding my vocabulary with some truly bizarre sentences, “Jeg har atte edderkopper,” [I have eight spiders.] being a particular favorite of mine. (Perhaps that's the genius of that method, I've never forgotten that sentence…)I am not the best judge of how good my Norwegian is; but I have heard from enough people that it is workable, a rough-hewn hammer made from a stick and a rock with a hole in it. Will it pound nails? Probably, not always, and not with great accuracy, but it's better than no hammer at all. I am probably being too hard on myself. Stone hammer or not, I was able to tell jokes in Norwegian that made people laugh. I ordered food in restaurants, negotiated the purchase of second hand goods, discussed philosophy with friends, and on one memorable occasion convinced the staff in a museum to let a friend and I go in without paying in order to see a taxidermy giraffe. At the age of 33 a decade and a half after giving up, I decided to learn a foreign language by investing increments of my time, with the same mentality as working at a video game.I am a huge fan of the Dark Souls series of video games. This is because nearly everyone has the same experience the first time they play one. They happily toodle along for a while, some longer than others, and eventually hit a wall. An area, enemy, or boss fight that just seems, well, impossible, unsurmountable. But the beauty of a video game is that you have unlimited tries, you can dust yourself off and run at the wall again, learning, incrementally, bit-by-bit, how to press forward. If you invest that time, the triumph is all the sweeter.Comparing the grind of a video game to learning a new skill is by no means a novel realization, but I am sharing it with you because of the particular way it changed my own perception of what was possible for me. I had given up, because I thought that since I had passed some arbitrary point of no return where learning was now impossible. I have since learned that there are numerous such points, age 27, age 30, age 35, whatever, where you lose facility to learn new things well, or at least as well as you used to. I think that's a bunch of bullshit. I think it just takes more practice, and maybe a bit more willpower as you get older.

It's been a while since we've done a dive into media, so—here goes! Friend of the show Charles Siegel joins for Pooka for a discussion of how video games and tabletop games inform and resemble each other. We go through a shortlist of ten titles for inspiration to round out this series of episodes (for now) (the other big one is music, and no way are we getting the rights to do that one). In our opinion, each of these games features a variety of elements that tie into those of Changeling: the Dreaming. Obviously, there are a lot more out there, but a shortlist seems sufficient for our purposes. We're of the opinion that video and tabletop games inform each other If you'd like to acquaint yourself with the titles in question, behold some videos: American McGee's Alice (2000) — opening video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSMZsT4UhyQ Braid (2008) – trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqtSKkyJgFM Final Fantasy (so many years) — here's the piano collection for FFVI as one example of Uematsu's music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SJisxnVFZo Kingdom of Loathing (2003 – present): https://www.kingdomofloathing.com/ Persona 4 (2008) – opening video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h73LvR8V2LA Pokémon Go (2016 – present) – one of many rare Pokémon hunts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLdWbwQJWI0 Psychonauts (2005) – trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDbDShqvc_o Tandem: A Tale of Shadows (2021) – trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKiv1skvUJQ Untitled Goose Game (2019) longplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gruIyw_AHYE Yume Nikki (2004) – longplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yr4iJL1LZwY Meanwhile, Charles can be found around the following parts of the interwebsphere: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/charlessiegel Storytellers' Vault: https://www.storytellersvault.com/browse.php?author=Charles%20Siegel Tellurium Games: https://www.tellurium.games/ As for ourselves, drop us a line at any of the following: Discord: https://discord.me/ctp Email: podcast@changelingthepodcast.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100082973960699 Mastodon: https://dice.camp/@ChangelingPod Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/changelingthepodcast YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ChangelingThePodcast your host Pooka G (any pronoun/they) used to tear it up at Dance Dance Revolution and is still proud of that A+ on "So Deep".

Ryan Glatt is a certified personal trainer, a national board-certified health and wellness coach, and director of FItBrain at PNI. He's also a big believer in the idea that just getting on a treadmill isn't enough to keep our brains and bodies in top condition as we age. We must “dual task,” Glatt says. That means finding activities that challenge our minds and bodies at the same time, like dance or pickleball. Glatt, whose own energy and enthusiasm is infectious, is a big fan of video games that make you move. He got fit (and came out of his shell) years ago by playing Dance Dance Revolution, which requires both deft movement and undivided attention. Dual tasking is crucial as we age because it can slow dementia. Glatt has pored over the research and is convinced of that. It can also help us retain our balance, thereby preventing falls, one of the biggest causes of injury in older adults. This high-energy conversation with Ryan will show you how important dual tasking is, and we bet it will get you up and moving by the end.

A game near and dear to us turned 25 years old this past week, and we take time at the top of our show to reflect on our memories of what Dance Dance Revolution has meant to us over the years. Without it, we wouldn't have this show, and we're excited that the game has had a recent "2nd Mix" life to allow new generations to play it and bond over it. It's not just Memories (get it?) though, as we dive into the weeks news, including a major hack at Sony. Could this be something similar to what Sony experienced in the Playstation 3 era, or is the data that's been breached not that big of a deal all things considered? We discuss all this and much much more on another week of the longest running video game podcast, Orange Lounge Radio!   Also in the News:   * SAG AFTRA Video Game Strike Authorized * Meta Quest Xbox Cloud Gaming Details * RE4 Remake Price on Cell Phone * Layoffs at Epic   All this and more on the show where EVERY gamer has a voice-- Orange Lounge Radio!

Earlier this year, I had Glimmer on the podcast. They had suggest their partner, Shoopa, would be great to talk to. And now, here we are several months later! Shoopa joins me to talk about a number of new to the podcast fandoms, which always gets me excited. The first thing we talk about is Rhythm games. These include games like Dance Dance Revolution and Taiko no Tatsujin. Shoopa also talks about how he was/is a competitive DDR player (since the recording he's won a tournament), and the DDR scene in several places. Then we turn to Sega's mascot, Sonic. Shoopa talks about his love for the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise. From the characters, to his favorite games, the music, and so much more.  Shoopa then talks about how he got into The Owl House. We talk about the show, the connection it has with him and Glimmer, the characters, and what the show meant to him. Then we wrap up with a conversation about Cosplay. Shoopa talks about how he got into cosplay, the characters he does, creating cosplay and the various props, and what his plans are for the future.
