(Show Opener) Nonsense and nostalgia with B Mo the Prince: “Some mom brought her daughter over to me at a restaurant. And she was like, I don't know who you are. But my daughter said, You're the millennial guy?” And Loren Raye: "a cool mom. What is that not me? I just record audio in the closet and I never shower.” Brought to you by unraveled cassette tapes. Break out that pencil and start winding.
LOREN: So help me, God, every time I tried to do that, it would get twisted and then you would try to play it and it would go for sdjfhdskjfhskdjfhs
B MO: I swear, it only happened to your favorite cassettes...
LOREN: Yes
B MO: it never happened to like the crappy ones. Always your favorites.
LOREN: It’s true, welcome to nonsense and nostalgia, where the millennial prince and the badass chick talk about life, liberty and the pursuit of the 90s. Bo the prince. What’s up, man?
B MO: Hey hey. Whats cooking Loren, how you doing. You doing good?
LOREN: So we're on episode two, so thank you, if you've joined us once again, we will remind you kindly rate us leave a review and tell your friends about this lovely new podcast we have. Can I ask you a question? Because you're married, but don't have kids.
B MO: Yeah,
LOREN: I would like for you to... As I call it, smother me and spontaneity.
BMO: I like the name of it.
LOREN: Yeah, so you'll notice that when you have kids, you can't do anything spontaneous, anything spontaneous is really like, Hey, in 6 days, would you like to go here and can we find a sitter? It's brutal. So I want you to tell me the last time that you and your wife Sarah did something on a whim that was spontaneous, please make me jealous. And live vicariously through you.
B MO: Well I will say that, 'cause we are in the process, I guess, or just bought a house technically, we did the walk through, then we went and just decided, let's go, because we're in this vibe, let's go look for house things, we went around and just ran through Ikea. And not like Ikea shopping where you feel like you're obligated to get stuff, we were just enjoying the displays, the rooms...
LOREN: You were meandering.
B MO: Yeah.
LOREN: What was that like?
B MO: We were super meandering the... It's lovely. First of all, in it, it's lovely 'cause it's like you're going into multiple houses, which is... That's
LOREN: So weird. Did you eat the meat balls, by the way.
B MO: Didn't touch those.
LOREN: What that’s the best part of going to Ikea Alright, fine.
B MO: But then we went to Bob's Discount Furniture, then we went to BJ's and started looking at a 75-inch TV, 'cause I was like, Girl, I want a big fat TV, we went to the open house. I was measuring walls and stuff, so we went out, did that, and then I just decided, you know what, let's double down and let's go get some dinner. Let's get some lunch or Whatever. had some nice... If you've ever been to Smokey Bones, ladies and gentlemen, they have some candied bacon that is to die for it, so we had some delicious things and then just vibe out, we do have a puppy, so we did have a time table where we were like... he’s probably gotta pee.
LOREN: So you do have a general thing that's pulling you back home at some point, but not a child.
B MO: I can assure you, if that dog was not here or someone, if we left him, at my mom's like we do sometimes, we would have been out getting sauce, probably a...
LOREN: Seriously. Does not work like that when you have children. I’m so jealous of your spontaneous trips because we tried to go to the zoo the other day, so as soon as my daughter... Sophie wakes up from a nap, I'll go up and get her... We'll be in a car in 10 minutes. Well, let me tell you, there is no such thing as that. At all? She woke up and she's like, Oh no, no, don't take sleep sack of... No, it's like her blanket... It is like, No, no. Keep sleep sack on. So I'm like, Okay, so I'm like 15 minutes goes by. She's like, Sophie hungry. I was like, Can we eat at the zoo? Sophie hungry NOW. No, literally, it took at least 36 minutes from when she woke up to put her in the car just to go to the zoo and look at animals for her sake... Not really for mine. I was like, Man, you can't do anything on a whim at all, so I'm very jealous and I'm very happy for you two...
B MO: I would say one thing, we don't have kids, but I do have a Sarah and when Sarah hungry there, hungry now.
LOREN: So this is why I love your wife. I feel like it's funny 'cause I never really got to hang out with your wife very much when we were both working at the radio station, and now my husband and I live in New Jersey, so I'm kind of bummed 'cause I really do think that your wife and I would get along really well.
B MO: You would have vibe out. You two would have had the relationship where you would have went out just to grab dinner and you both would have come home to DRUNK, accidental drunk, where you're like, We had way too much sangria and here we are.
LOREN: My car is still there, I had to take a Uber or... Oh my God. Alright, I would like to address something with you because you are the millennial prince, you are the expert that there are a lot of things that are coming back. Fashion is that I'm even... Not just fashion, but I'm not okay with it. Alright, so like Mom Jeans are coming back. And can I tell you two things, when I was younger, if I had been forced to wear Mom Jeans, I would have smacked someone on the face...
B MO: Yup clean.
LOREN: Yes. Second of all, now that I am a mom and I do have that pouch that they like, the Mom Jeans supposedly hide... I will tell you it does not hide Jack. Okay, stepping into Mom Jeans now it's like, This is gross because all of it is just sitting there, so that trend doesn't need to come back and... I don't understand it.
B MO: I find it strange just because the Gen Z kids that are all into the Mom Jeans now are acting all uppity as if they created it, and I'm like, You guys understand, when we were kids, you got ripped on if you were like... Just rocking mom's like, it was a thing, but you still kinda looked kind of whatever, but you definitely didn't create it... Get out of here.
LOREN: I know. Well, that was like champion sweatshirts, I feel like got ripped on if I were that, but aren't they cool now?
B MO: Yeah, and expensive.
LOREN: Really? They should should be... I used to find them in a bin at TJ Max on sale or like $4.99 there. They’re expensive?
B MO: Yeah, like the thing about it is, I actually did a tiktok about it when I was a kid, Champion was for the mole people, like you were... You were not cool if you were rocking champion and it looked like crappy, it looked cheap in whatever, and it doesn't look that different now, but now it's way more expensive and it's just... Everyone's got it. They think it's so great, but whatever
LOREN: Okay, so what other things are coming back now that I'm not thinking of.
B MO: So the one thing that I think is foolish that Gen Z also is preaching about is the war on the side part because they support the middle part. And again, Gen Z children, you didn't come up with this. This isn’t a new thing. If you go back to the 90s and look at any heart any male heat throb.
LOREN: OMG you’re right. Jonathan Taylor Thomas as baggy. Oh my God, I had such a crush on him. Who's Devin Sawa had at that middle part... It's so funny you say that too, 'cause I've seen pictures of my husband from the 90s, and he had that... That same thing. And I was like, Dude, if we went to school together, I would have been like, I have a crush on Matt Bosso, hardcore.
B MO: Yeah, like the heart throbs all had it even the dude from Boy Meets World, Cory's friend Sean, everyone loved Sean, and he had a middle part... You didn’t come up with this. Get off it.
LOREN: My God, I never thought of that like.
B MO:: We've been there, y'all. We've been there.
LOREN: Can we discuss this in a minute, Can we discuss certain things that should never come back... Full stop.
B MO: Yes, most of. Most of it.
LOREN: Let's do shout-outs real quick for shout outs, if you don't know, this is what we do, we have a list of my long of 90 popular characters, icons or whatever you wanna call them, we each choose one for the other person, they then have to imitate that character icon while they're thanking their people,
B MO: so I know we established an episode one... You didn't watch a lot of 90s cartoons. Did you watch the Disney movies
LOREN: Like Lion King and stuff like that?
B MO: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yes. Alright, so I would like you to do your impression as Pumbaa, the warthog, the fat guy.
LOREN: Oh, I hate you. I don't... know How a wort hog talks. I can't remember anything. So I wanna thank Kerri Bosso, she is my sister-in-law, and she happens to be the biggest fan of B Mo the Prince, and she had no idea that you and I are friends, which I think is hilarious because she posted something the other day, I was like, This guy so so funny, and I was like, Kerri, I'm friends with him. So there's that, Oh my God, this is... I cannot do this voice, this is not what it sounds like at all, and then also, I just also wanna thank George Porgy, an old amp radio fan who continues to listen and support us all the time, still to this day... I'm sorry, I can't do that. I cannot do Pumbaa. Alright, are you ready to embarrass you?
B MO: I just liked it because Pumbaa has such a, a deep voice, and I was like, Oh, I have to make Loren do this.
LOREN: Should I have done it like this. I don't remember him.
B MO: He has a Seth Rogen type of voice, I think Seth Rogen played him in the new one, but he's got a lot of ksdhfkjshdf. Kinda does sound like what a wart hog would sound like I guess.
LOREN: Okay. So B Mo the Prince. I'm done, honestly, my voice is... I have auditions for a voice-over you, I never book them, but I do have auditions. Okay, I gotta give myself the shot that... Alright, so the person that you are gonna imitate what you're doing, your shot out is Oh my god, Samantha from Sex in the City.
B MO: Oh my god, fun fact, I have watched zero percent of Sex in the city, so...
LOREN: Okay, do you want a new one?
B MO: No, no, no, no, no, I'm rolling with... What is she
LOREN: Samantha is the sexy one. And she talks like this all the time.
B MO I just wanna shout out. So my dear tiktok follower, who has been with me since day one, she's a Day oner, Miss dizzy, Miss lizzy, she's a moderator in my tiktok lives, she's become a good friend now, very supportive, always promoting and helping a guy out. So you know, to Dizzy Miss Lizzy. Thank you.
LOREN Perfect. That was very good for not having watched Sex and the City... I love it.
B MO: So thank you, thank you. Thank you guys. All right, also, by the way. Rate and review because soon will be thinking for the reviews. So
LOREN: That's a very good point. Alright, so 90s, trends that absolutely can never return full stop. Here's my first one. Weekend at Bernie’s. Now, I understand that it was released in 1989, however, those types of things still go into the 90s, and I understand that there was a sequel released in the 90s... I respect that. Don't ever bring it back. If anyone makes it, again, I will hunt you down and I will punch you because it is one of the best franchise movies ever made, and no one should remake it.
B MO: I just like that it took a real violent path, You are like one of the least violent people I've ever been, and you were like, I will punch you
LOREN: Or so you think No, I know... No, yes indeed. Yes, indeed. Can't do it.
B MO: So one of my 90 trends that I wish never would come back is Furbys, I don't ever need to see it for me, ever again.
LOREN: They were creepy.
B MO: They were... I had one and it was fun at first because I remember... Correct me if I'm wrong. I remember they spoke Furby gibberish and then over time they could speak English with you and they would talk to you and interact.
LOREN: Oh, I didn't know that
B MO: Which was fun for a moment, but then when you wake up and there's like a wide-eyed furry beaked creature staring at you, that's like good morning. It's terrifying, horrifying that never needs to be a toy again, we don't ever need to see it again because I'm pretty sure every Furby murdered at least three people...
LOREN: Didn’t it remind you of the movie, the gremlins...
B MO: Yes
LOREN: That was a movie. It's so funny, I will never forget, I was staying over at my aunt and uncle's house and my cousin was babysitting and she was there with her boyfriend, and we got to go pick out a movie that was... Back in the day when you would go to Blockbuster or the local video store and you would actually... The best feeling ever. Yeah, right, you're... So you walk in and you're like, This is mine.
B MO: It was a palace.
LOREN: It really was. So I go in and I'm like, I'm gonna rent the gremlins movie. And she's like, I don't know. That's really scary. You're like six, probably not a good idea. And I was like, Kristie, I got it. Don't tell me what to do. So I read the movie and bless her soul, she was probably upstairs making out with her boyfriend or something, I don't know, and I'm sitting downstairs watching this movie, and I must have run upstairs like seven times and been like, I don't like it. It’s scary. And she was probably like a girl I told to you...And that you wouldn't like it.
B MO: It, but it was not on the same lane, but my grandparents used to always let me just go to the Blockbuster and just pick whatever movies I wanted, and they would be like, Yeah, sure. We'll let them watch it. And this is a little awkward, but the first boobs I ever saw were from Caddyshack and... Yeah, and I watched it and I remember sitting and I was like, Oh my god, that woman is... It is topless what is happening. And I remember my mom being like, Did you let him watch Caddyshack? And they were like, I don't know, he just got a movie, and she was like, Well, stop that. Look at the movie, he's getting...
LOREN: There’s ratings for a reason... Oh my gosh, I love it. Something else that I never want to come back is butterfly clips, are they back too... I know, I know that those... Okay, so I don't know how to describe the shape, it's almost like an oval shape, but elongated oval. Right. So those are coming back. And who was wearing them at? Oh, Lizzo was wearing them at the Grammys this year. Yeah, I think it was the one year and I was like, Oh okay, I guess those are coming back, I can get over it if I need to put the butterfly thing, I can't... I don't want it ever... It was gross. Mariah Carey really flourished on that one and just needed to let it go...
B MO: Yeah, also back are scrunchies.
LOREN: Hold on. Look, let me show you. I’m wearing one right now.
B MOL You are scrunched up. I don't have anything against scrunches, I just... On that thought, they're also back. One other thing I hope doesn't back is any toy that is similar to skip its... Again, like a Furby, I really loved it at first, and I would have the counter on it so you could set your own records, and eventually after a couple of days, I was like, Oh no, I don't really... This is ridiculous, I'm just spending time standing here, skipping a thing in the yard, I feel like my parents got me this just so I would shut up for two hours to try and break my record...
LOREN: 100%.Yeah, no, I liked them. I was a big fan and listen, at least you got some exercise, you know, I don't know, it...
B MO: And back in the day, the toys were all about exercising, you got outside...
LOREN: Yeah, they were... And they weren't like the Pokemon remake where they made you get outside but also stare at your phone on the video game, the virtual reality crap that they did.
B MO: I’m not gonna lie, I did. I did that. I was like roaming the streets as a full-grown adult walking around, staring at my phone being like I gotta catch this, Pikachu. It was a sad time.
LOREN: Alright, and I wanna close it out with weirdness of the week. Alright, so we talk about a weird event or a weird person that we noticed, so this one is from a few weeks ago, in February, I took my parents to one of those large mega-sites to get their vaccinations, which I was very grateful for, and I'm looking around... And let me tell you, it's freezing, 'cause you know it's February and we're all standing outside and we had to stand outside for two hours, it was one of those big,. Yeah, and there was someone standing in front of me... And he was wearing flip-flops.
B MO: Why do you do this? Why does he not care about his toes?
LOREN: I don't understand it. I tried to think to myself like, Okay, maybe it was the last minute decision to come here, I don't know, but like, you know that you have an appointment. Right.
B MO: This is kind of a pet peeve of mine is I, I can't stand the people, first of all, I don't like feed me and feet are not friends.
LOREN: Oh, you don't like feet?
B MO: I would much prefer have a second set of hands on the bottom that just do whatever, 'cause then I could like hang upside down from trees and stuff, that's another story for another time. But I just don't like feet in general, so I just hate how there are some people that just want to jump straight into flip-flop season, even though it's not even... I wish it snowed that afternoon, so he had to march around in flip-flops it... He deserves that, like the people wear shorts in tank tops when it's like 30 degree getters.
LOREN: I was the flip flop person by accident after I gave birth, I left the hospital, couldn't find my sneakers, I had packed everything. And let me tell you, if you are pregnant right now, it's great that you have a plan, but you're not gonna use any of that plan, and... So we had this whole bag packed, I can't find my sneakers, and so I just walk out and there we are, and it's raining and there's... I saw on the ground. And there's hail and I'm like, it's good. It's okay guys, I'm fine, I'm working. Every time I see someone like that, I'm like, You're an idiot. And I say that because I too, I'm an idiot.
B MO: Is fine, it's... I will never, ever support it, just... No, wait til spring. Because also is, there was always a point in college that one day when spring hit just right, maybe you can speak to this. I don't know if all of the girls got together and had a secret society meeting, but one day you would come to class and every girl would be in a sun dress in flip-flops outta... Nowhere, yeah, the day before everyone was in sweat pants and hoodies, and then today, if we have flip-flops and sun dresses and that was it. For the rest of the semester, I don't know when you guys met, but it happened.
LOREN: I went to Penn State and we had this huge, huge lawn, and every year, and when it was like 56 degrees, I think that was the minimum, you would see girls outside in their bikinis, lying down on the lawn, and they were tanning, and I was like, Girl it... It's still freezing outside. What are you doing to... I don't get it. So Alright, Episode 2 in the books, please make sure you rate and review and leave us comments, follow us on our socials.
