Kids Raised on Sesame Street... and Miracle Mile...??

Season 1, Ep. 7

Friend of the show and co-host of his own podcast, Love In The Time of Hydra, Tony Pauletto hops onboard the spaceship this week for a trip down memory lane!


He and Aaron talk about some of the media that raised them, like PBS and Sesame Street and... apparently... nuclear apocalypse thriller Miracle Mile (1988)....?!?


Along the way, we'll meet a biker gang that jousts in Knightrider (1981) and all the alien vampires of Planet of the Vampires (1965).


Tony's podcast with co-host Jamie Jirak, Love In The Time of Hydra, is on a brief hiatus, but you can catch up on the past two seasons here: Love In The Time of Hydra: The Agents of SHIELD 10th Anniversary Podcast
