Description

Infinite guilt trips, innocence lost, and a donkey trafficking scheme... Oh lawd, it's about to get pretty dark! In their first episode of 2023, these ‘90s kids close the book on pop culture’s most renowned puppet (through both the novel and the Disney film), explore the social and political context from which the original story emerged, and follow the threads of its impact all the way through our collective millennial childhood. Get ready, y'all, we're going to Pleasure Island!Have a frightfully nostalgic memory to share or a pretty dark topic you'd like us to cover?

Here for the 80s and 90s kids who still long for the safe, spooky glow of the TV screen in a dark room, Kalyn Andrews and Christian Baxter Mott (also 90s kids) take a nostalgic look at the grittier side of the children's entertainment that ruled our adolescence and moulded our generation. Our show features every-other-weekly discussions ranging from movie nights and season-long binges, to spooky specials of shows and other traumas... (ahem, memories). So, grab your flashlights and join us on Saturday nights as we go searching for and researching what exactly it was that happened to us in the dark all those many moons ago. Indulge the collective nostalgia and follow us on Instagram and Facebook @thatsprettydarkpodcast. Tell us about your childhood experience, frightful or otherwise, at thatsprettydarkpodcast@gmail.com.
