Botticelli the Dolphin w/ MADSHROOM MC

Well folks, put on those shoulder length gloves that Laura Dern wears in Jurassic Park, cause it’s Probin’ Time! This one here, is the deepest… the darkest… the craziest amount of research I have done for any episode yet. The lengths, depths, and girths that I went to to find out what the hell Ecco the Dolphin is really about… Holy mackerel.

If you never played the 1992 smash hit game exclusively for the Sega systems, you missed out. And if you did play the game, you probably remember it’s immensely difficult and confusing puzzles. But if you happened to be one of the few that beat the game?! You were an elite gamer with the most patient of demeanors. 


Think Free Willy meets The Terminator meets Alien… Take all of that and wrap it in one of Jimi Hendrix’s acid soaked bandanas, and you are right where you need to be… Plus! A very special happy birthday to Rob! Love ya buddy. Plus! We welcome back our spleen! That’s right, Kevin Siplin is in the house!

About the Podcast

The Nostalgia Pit
FKA: Ruining Your Childhood - The Pitfalls of Nostalgia
The Nostalgia Pit is a podcast aiming to dissect pop culture, the subconscious, and other psychological phenomena through a hyperbolic and prismatic lens. Hosted by Rob Snow and Colin Casserd, the Nostalgia Pit is available anywhere you find your podcasts.

Nostalgia is so often thought of as something great from our childhood... But this psychological pitfall can sometimes have massive effects on our decision making. Our goal here is to discuss these areas where morals and ethics blur and the warm feelings of childhood take over. Oh, and to talk some shit...

Produced by Colin Casserd
