  1985: Chicago Bears - The Monsters of the Midway

  Aug 14, 20261h 38m

  Our second potpourri episode for 1985 is live, and we are tackling (trying to!) what might be the greatest team in NFL history, the Monsters of the Midway, the 1985 Chicago Bears. If not the greatest team of all time, it is undeniable they had the most dominant season in NFL history, only to cap it with an even more historically dominant playoff run that saw them bully and demolish every single opponent. All while there was infighting amongst the coaches and players, with a nasty rift between legendary head coach Mike Ditka and legendary defensive coordinator Buddy Ryan, growing wider every day the two were together. And when they weren't exploding teams on the field or exploding at each other on the sidelines, they were also busy becoming pop culture icons. All in a day's work for....Da Bears!

  1985: The Video Game Crash & The Rise of Nintendo

  Aug 7, 202659 min

  We are in the hot, sweaty dog days of summer, folks. Which means it's a new month and a new year. For August, we are taking things back to 1985! A pivotal year in the middle of a bunch of really important years for both pop culture and the world at large. Which means, we kind of miss out on some major events and critical pieces of art. But that means we get to freestyle a little bit this whole month. Hooray! First up, a look at how the video game industry nearly buckled before a plucky Japanese gaming company came along to save the Princess from the clutches of Bowser and/or Gannon industry and create new ways to make video games and a whole lot of money.

  Since you asked for it no one at all asked for this here's the Silas Crane cut of OCC Headline News for July 31 2100. Amazing that I was able to clear up the signal!

  OCC Headline News: July 31 2100

  Jul 31, 20268 min

  We've once again found a frequency emanating from deep inside the Einstein-Rosen Bridge. There's some temporal jumbling happening, but this signal is the farthest in the future we've been able to intercept thus far. Wait, this is actually two separate signals, but they are riding into our space-time together all the way from the year 2100! Spoiler alert: Sounds great! OR IS IT?!

  1999: Social & Political Upheaval

  Jul 24, 20261h 29m

  We wrap up this month's episodes covering the events of 1999 with a look at two of the most impactful, world-changing events of the last millennium: The Battle in Seattle (WTO Ministerial Conference) and the Columbine High School Shooting. One forever changed our economies and dealt a blow to domestic labor and the environment and the other fundamentally shook every American to their core in a way no one ever fully recovered from.
