Actor/Comedian Pete Capella returns to discuss one of the most influential albums of all time, Moby's 1999 chart smashing PLAY.
We discuss what it means to become a sellout, and whether or not we think Moby fits the bill. We also talk about the monumental shift toward licensing songs to commercials and film that this record brought on, and how that thrusted Moby into the limelight months after the album dropped. Other topics include Moby's fervent animal rights agenda, the cultural appropritation in PLAY, and the influence these 18 tracks had on the future of the music industry.

Writer Toby Herman joins us to face down one of our most dreaded films of 1999, the incredibly cursed Jewish Robin Williams film, JAKOB THE LIAR.
We talk about all the ways this movie misses the mark on representing Polish Jews, from the incorrect pronunciation of Jakob, to the casting choices. We also talk about this tumultuous period of Robin Williams career, what he was trying to achieve, and where we think he would have landed in today's media landscape.

Jen Statsky (Hacks, The Good Place) joins us to talk about the amazingly on-brand Nicholas Sparks adaptation MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE.
We discuss why we thought this movie could have been more than the typical sparks romp, our love for Robin Wright, and why we believe her career fell off. We also talk about the teen romances of the 90s, and how they compare to the adult ones, and, of course, Kenny's dad (Kevin Costner).

Jordan Crucchiola returns to the show to talk about the first of two Johnny Depp movies this month, (Of THREE total in 1999, wow this guy has been busy!) THE NINTH GATE.
We talk about the colorful gradient of Depp performances over the years, from his most whacky jaunts, to this wet towel, and try to figure out where he works the best. We also discuss the unclear tone of this film, and how that speaks to the larger issue in modern day Hollywood, of films not fully committing to what they're trying to achieve. Plus, we talk about the Polanski of it all.

Phil and Kenny sit down with this podcast's resident music expert, writer Rich Monahan, to discuss the scariest mainstream band of the 90s: SLIPKNOT.
We talk about all the factors that led to such a freaky group becoming a mainstream success, from the rise of angry, rich frat boys, to clique cultures in highschools. We also compare them to their contemporaries, including Insane Clown Posse and Limp Bizkit, as well as precursors such as Kiss, and track their evolution from their debut 1999 album, to today.

Spooky Season has officially begun on Podcast Like It's 1999! Here to kick off this month of terror is writer Emma Stefansky, talking about everyone's favorite FBI agents, Mulder and Scully, with THE X-FILES season 6, episode 15; ARCADIA.
That's right, we're finally covering one of the 90s most seminal pieces of science fiction pop culture. We discuss the rabid fanbase that kept X-Files on the air for so long, and how they reacted to this incredible self-contained episode (with a plot ripped straight from Emma's personal fan fiction). We also talk about the subpar special effects and story work, that is almost completely overshadowed by the lead performances and direction.

Writer/Critic Carrie Wittmer joins us to talk about the underappreciated adaptation of Graham Greene's 1950s romance novel, THE END OF THE AFFAIR.
We discuss why we think this movie deserves a second chance, the fantastic lead performances from Ralph Fiennes and Julianne Moore (Who, let's be honest, would ooze romantic chemistry with a literal potato), and the ahead-of-its-time sex scenes. We also talk about why this movie hit us so hard, where it loses us, and break down Moore's incredible '99 run.
