045 - A Penny, For Her Thoughts

Stuck In The Past

Penny DeWitt Cave takes a trip back to tell us about her Donny Osmond crush, purple velvet hot pants, and her deep love of "corny as crap" Hallmark movies. She recalls her first day of Jr. High and what it was like meeting all of her life-long friends.

044 - You Laugh, You Lose

Stuck In The Past

Part 2 of our show recorded at the Stuart-Menlo High School Class of 1978 45th reunion. Listen to the "You Laugh, You Lose" competition where people face off one to one trying not to laugh at some really bad jokes.

043 - You Stole My Crush

Stuck In The Past

Part 1 of our show recorded at the Stuart-Menlo High School Class of 1978 45th reunion. Some of our classmates share their recollection of just how things went down back in the day. You'll hear tales from Deer Creek, details on some near-death experiences, and the sad truth of how even a moment's indecision at a high school dance can permanently change the course of one's life.

042 - The Changing Of The Guard

Stuck In The Past

Part 2 of our recap of the first 40 episodes. Our ol' buddy Retro Rob, sporting some far out bell bottoms, "crashes" in on us once again. He shares some very interesting information on how Stuart Iowa's leadership changed from the elder crowd to new blood in the 1970's.

041 - Blamin' It On The Button

Stuck In The Past

What do you do when you haven't dropped an episode in two years? You pick up where you left off! After a freak accident where Tom fell asleep at the time machine controls, causing Tim and Tom to be stuck in the year 1347 for what seemed like two years to you all, the crew finally made it back. (Fortunately they didn't bring back any black plague.) On this trip they'll take you through some highlights of their first 40 episodes. And just like any good time travel scenario, it will be like they never left. NOTE: You may hear them talk of having been gone for a year. That's just because the...

040 - Mind Laxative

Stuck In The Past

Part 2 of our very interesting conversation with Doug Shellenberg (see Episode 039 show notes to learn more about him). Doug used his excellent sense of humor to lead Tim and Tom through "Stump The Hosts" with some keenly-worded questions involving music, TV, and movies. If you think we laughed a lot during Doug's first episode, wait until you catch this one! Among other things, you'll learn what you need to do when the thoughts in your mind just won't come out.

039 - Rock Hudson, Rock Schmudson

Stuck In The Past

What happens when you bring on a guest known only to one of the hosts? It depends on a lot of things, and you will find out in this episode as you meet Doug Shellenberg, a co-worker of Tom's and an all-around great guy. Doug went to high school in northern Iowa the same time we were in high school. He knows his 1970's, he knows his "Stuck In The Past" (he's listened to every episode), and his humor and quick wit are quite impressive. To top it off, Doug has an infectious laugh that will make you smile.

038 - Under The Influencers

Stuck In The Past

Part 2 of our conversation with Joan Cook Corbin. Standing out among Joan's most poignant memories is the time she took Miss Donovan out in the hall to give her a talking to. You'll hear which teachers we taunted and which ones we didn't dare cross. Joan tests Tim's and Tom's 1977 Girls' Basketball knowledge during Stump The Hosts, and she lends her voice to some of the hit songs remembered in the news segment.

037 - Understanding Life In Reverse

Stuck In The Past

Have you ever taken the time to reflect on those who had the biggest positive effect on your life? Joan Cook Corbin did. Joan jumped back to the seventies with Tim & Tom to talk about her influencers. Joan talks about being put in her place by a friend while goofing off at a time she should have been serious, track team memories, and a best friend who named a pig after her. You'll learn why Joan rolls her bed pillows, and you'll be treated to a vocabulary including works like gaggle, curt, and precedent.

036 - Keep It Together, Bird Boy

Stuck In The Past

Part 2 of our conversation about the toys we were fond of as kids. You'll get a free French lesson, hear a horrible Minnie Ripperton impression, and you'll hear the song "If" in a way you couldn't even dream of. Tim calls it dramatic, but "hideously sappy" would have been way more accurate. And, most unfortunately, you may pick up the mental image of Batman in a Speedo. You absolutely...HALF...to listen to this episode!
