In My Footsteps: A Gen-X Nostalgia Podcast
Episode 200: Listener's Choice: Wendy's Grill Skills Employee Video, MTV's Real World, Most Hated Cartoons(6-18-2025)
The podcast turns the big 2-0-0! The 200th episode is filled with memories, moments, and nostalgia that has been chosen by the listeners over on Patreon.
It has been a whirlwind of nearly 5 years creating, recording, researching, and editing 200 shows. I am so grateful to all of you who have listened to and supported the podcast. There is no end in sight, so what's on Episode 200?
The show kicks off with a deep dive into the show that changed MTV forever, The Real World. The popular reality show kick-started the 90s and ultimately changed the way MTV perceived itself as a television channel.
Do you have grill skills? If not, you're in luck because we are going to look at a classically cheesy Wendy's employee training video from 1989 appropriately titled 'Grill Skill.' Singing burger patties, spatulas as guitars, dancing and rapping employees, and Dave Thomas! You will laugh, and maybe learn a new skill.
Me v. AI Top 5 returns with a hotly contested debate. Which are the most hated cartoons ever? I have my picks and Chat GPT has its, which will be read of course by Bonzi Buddy.
There is as always a brand new This Week In History and Time Capsule looking back at the very first rollercoaster.
