Juvenalia is a pop culture nostalgia show where Alan Maguire, Sarah Maria Griffin, and Andrea Cleary invite interesting people to tell them about something they were obsessed with when they were young; how they felt about it then and how they feel about it now. We've talked about books, films, tv shows, musicians, computer games; we're interested in it all! It's nice, you'll like it.

As well as Interbang?!, we also go down a deep rabbit hole of reading the list of shows that aired on The Children's Channel. It was a trip.
This is the first episode we've recorded remotely because of The Situation so please forgive any technical hiccups or sound oddities.
