Three friends. A lifetime of questionable obsessions. One podcast.
Join us on The What The What Variety Show, where we excavate the best (and weirdest) of pop culture and nostalgia. From the high-stakes physics of a Disc Jump to the toys, trends, and television that raised us, we’re digging through the cultural archives so you don’t have to.
Every episode is a high-energy mix of deep dives, debates, and "Wait, do you remember...?" moments that will make you question your own childhood. We’re bridging the gap between what was cool then and what’s bizarre now—one deep dive at a time.
In this episode, the trio starts with a classic discussion - on a Saturday morning from your youth, what cartoon are you watching, and what cereal are you eating? In Block A, the Spider-Man trailer and Toy Story 5 clip is discussed, the hosts pay their respects to Chuck Norris, Robert Duvall, and Nicholas Brendan, Ashby gives her Wrestlemania 42 picks, despite not being a fan, and more! In Block B, Ashby, Kyle and Eric draft their Whatchella lineup - a Coachella inspired musical draft, featuring artists from 1994-2006! In Block C, Ashby and Kyle try to detect what nostaglic artifact is fake in the "As If" Archive. And of course - the group ends with their "Useless Aggression" for the month!
