Episode 48: Old Time Croc and Roll - a podcast by Xan Peters and Joe Cimino

On today's tour, we join our tour guides, Xan and Joe, in what seems to be a room filled to the brim with artifacts from the past. Ranging from Dorthys Ruby slippers to Dustin's hat from Stranger Things, Xan and Joe, take this opportunity to talk about the effects of nostalgia in our society today. While talking about the history of the word as well as its relationship to commodification, Joe brings up the question on what is the function of nostalgia when there is no longer a place or object to be nostalgic about? All the while, they discuss the latest gossip about Greta Van Fleet, The Suicide Squad, and the potential new fashion trend, Croc-martens.
