It's Probin' Time!

I’ve heard it said before that the journey is the destination…In this case I think we can affirm this as true. Debuting a new segment today, folks, It’s Probin’ Time!! On this cat-scratch fever dream of an episode, we dive into the 1981 film Roar.

Produced and directed by Noel Marshall, who also starred in the film, alongside Tippy Hedron and Melanie Griffith. This gaping maw of content is stuffed with everything from the original story of Pinnochio, to soup lozenges, to coping mechanisms. 


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! They drop a day early with an extra thirty minutes or more for every episode! Today, we talk about what drug culture looked like in ancient Rome & Greece! Fascinating, to say the least…


We also have some merch for sale up on our Etsy, as well as a limited run of embroidered beanies dropping very soon.

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
Engineered by Alex Riddle (Season 2)
