Time to fire up that echo chamber and start screaming into the void! Rob and Colin talk AI psychosis and the virality of delusion, as well as everything from super string theory to Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls. Quite the array today!

But you know that that’s not all… We also bust out ye ol’ Song Spelunker and look into the 2000 smash hit Jumpin’, Jumpin’ by Destiny’s Child. All of these things, and many more, today at The Pit.


And if you enjoy what we are doing here at the Pit and would like to support us further, please check us out our patreon, where we have exclusive extended episodes out early! Today, we talk the movie that’s been sweeping the nation with it’s polarizing portrayal of an alien invasion in the surveillance state… None other than War of the Worlds starring Ice Cube and Eva Longoria.


We also have some merch for sale up on our Etsy, as well as a limited run of embroidered beanies out now! Only a few left… Shoot us a DM on IG if you’re interested.

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
