Man Like You

Ep 16 - Nothing Hit's Like It Used To!

Ep. 16

This episode turns into a full-on time capsule.


The guys deep it on the best era of our lives — from 2008 to 2014 — breaking down why being broke somehow felt richer, why raves hit harder, and how culture, music, MTV Base, Channel U and late-night bagel spots shaped a whole generation.


From Pineapple Studios dance days, UK rap golden eras, first cars, first raves, and sneaking into “serious” clubs, to debating sold-out artists, nostalgia vs growth, and why nothing quite hits like it used to.


Plus:

• Eddie gets cooked (again)

• Baba unlocks hidden industry stories

• Mo brings the memory lane energy

• And the comments section gets addressed properly


Pure nostalgia, pure laughter, pure therapy.
