The holidays call for tradition… and a little chaos. In this special holiday episode of That’s Our Show!, we roll the dice to create completely random cocktails, debate what should work (and what absolutely shouldn’t), and toast the season with curiosity, skepticism, and good cheer. Festive, unscripted, and very much on-brand.

Before streaming queues and instant rewinds, there was the VCR—and it changed everything. In this bite-sized retro dive, Glen and Jim rewind to the era of blinking clocks, video rental rituals, taped-off TV movies, and the quiet power of being able to watch what you wanted, when you wanted. From Betamax vs. VHS to the accidental home-movie revolution, this episode explores how a chunky black box reshaped pop culture, family rooms, and our relationship with television forever.

More “Retro Tech Bites” will be coming to cover some of our Minisode slots, so stay tuned! Be sure to subscribe and share with friends, and if you have any comments, you can reach us at show@backstage.link.

In this episode, we dig into the unspoken social contract that keeps friendships running—everything from the obvious “friend commandments” to the strangely specific rules that only make sense within a particular friend group. We explore etiquette vs. loyalty, when teasing becomes too much, how adulthood and social media have reshaped old expectations, and which rules still matter today. We even draft the official rules of our friendship, complete with vetoes, amendments, and a healthy amount of self-awareness.
