The guys discuss the ways that companies monetize our childhood in this episode of Sanity Claws Radio!

Steve, Badger, and Jon sit down to discuss nostalgia bait, the way that companies repackage our childhoods and sell them back to us. They discuss some of the good examples of nostalgia bait and some of the bad examples and why they work. Also, Badger gets more Mincraft on, Steve hates a card game, and Jon dances! And we wrap up the show with a round of I Can Top That. Join in won’t you?
