Shelter From Oblivion

Halloween Special: Tales from the candy bowl

Andy and Matt are back in the the shelter with Lisa for a spooktacular evening of Halloween recollection. We remember what Halloween was like when we were kids in the mid 80's. The costumes, the candy, staying out late, making trades, and avoiding all the fruit and toothbrushes. We also have Lisa reading listener submitted Halloween stories. Join us for a spell. We have Pumpkin-face gum and 7-Up Gold. Happy Halloween Everyone!

Shelter Short: When the 60's sell the 80's

Andy and Matt head down to the shelter to have a quick chat about some fun and funny commercials from the 80's. We learn about writer, director, animator, artist and Honda lover, Carl Urbano. And then we talk about that time a memorable cast of 60's TV icons came together to sell...burgers and fries?! This is an episode not to be missed. We have McDonalds apple pies and Strawberry Quick.

We Shelter with Troop Beverly Hills

Your boys (and Lisa) have made it! We are heading to Beverly Hills, baby! Which looks eerily similar to the Shelter From Oblivion. In this episode, we’re donning our troop badges and taking a fabulous hike down memory lane with 1989's Troop Beverly Hills! So come on down, Troop fans, and join us as we set up camp and call room service. We’ve got Capri Suns and Tiger Tales!

We Shelter with Iconic 80's Dogs

We head back down to the shelter to go head to head about who were the best dogs of the 80's. There are party animals, crime fighter, Franken dogs, space pups....and all manner of other 4 legged friends. Who will win best in show? You be the judge. Lisa is back as well, to spit facts with her special brand of sass. So come down a join us. We have boxes of original cookie crisp and mug root beer!

We Shelter in Mr. Mom (Mother's Day Special)

Well this is our very very late Mother's Day episode. So late its now past Fathers Day. So we thought the best way to celebrate Mother's Day is to watch Mr. Mom, a movie about a man that learns how hard it is to be one. Now-a-days we would just call the movie Mr. Parent, but this was 1983 folks. You will also meet Lisa, our new AI voice assistant. She's a clever bot that LOVES her job. She's going to fit right in. Join us in the shelter today. We have grape bonkers and that blue soda in the glass bottle that you only bought once just to finally see what it tasted like. 

We Shelter in Questionable 80's Lyrics

We head down to the shelter to dissect the lyrics of some of the best pop rock hits of the 80's. Are the amazing hooks of these 80's wonder songs covering lyrics that make you say...wait, what now?! Come down and join in, we have Zagnut bars and Slurpees. 

We Shelter in a Fort, Hideout & Clubhouse

We head on down to the shelter to reminisce about building blanket and cardboard forts, trying to start monster clubs, and we discuss our favorite forts, hideouts and clubhouses from pop culture. Join us! We have grape soda and razzles.

We Shelter in a Video Store

Andy and I go down to the shelter to reminisce about the video store era. We talk membership cards, Standees, box covers, late fees, renting VCRs, what's behind that beaded curtain and much MUCH more. Join us. We have licorice and A & W root beer.
