For '90s kids, Christmas morning wasn't just about presents...it was about possibility. The right gift could spark an obsession, a personality trait, or a lifelong love.

In this special episode, we're each sharing three Christmas gifts that stayed with us long after childhood, from classic '90s toys to timeless items that followed us into adulthood.

We hope this discussion sparks a memory for you. We'd love to hear about the gifts you're still thinking about all these years later!

What if 90s kids had designed the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade?

Everyone who grew up in the 90s remembers playing Heads Up, Seven Up — but have you ever wondered where it came from, or why it hit so hard? What seemed like a simple classroom game was really an emotional minefield, filled with crushes, quiet tension, and the thrill of being noticed.

In episode, we're unpacking it all: sharing memories, swapping strategies, and realizing why this game mattered so much.

In this bonus clip from our Play Me a Memory show, we reflect on the quiet power of children's television that took its time, whether it was Mister Rogers slowly tying a shoe or Sesame Street showing us how an orange crayon was made, step by step.

If you remember these scenes, or just miss when TV moved a little slower, this one's for you.

In this episode of Play Me a Memory, we rewind to the golden age of summer TV: Nick at Nite's Block Party Summer.

From "Mary Mondays" to "Lucy Tuesdays," we explore how this nostalgic programming block shaped our 90s childhood and accidentally introduced us to binge-watching.

It's a retro deep dive into classic sitcoms, vintage commercials, and the magic of staying up past your bedtime.

Pull up a beanbag chair and join us. You're part of this story too.

In the first episode of Play Me a Memory, we dive into the colors that defined our generation.

From Starter jackets to disposable cups, teal and purple ruled the '90s. But how did they become the look of the decade? And how do trends like this catch on?

Join us for a nostalgic deep dive that explores the origins of the iconic '90s aesthetic.

Thanks for welcoming us back into your ears. We missed you. 💚💜

Hey friends! It's been a while.

We're popping back into this feed with something new that we think you'll love. After wrapping A Podcast for Creatives last year, we've been quietly working on a new project -- one that brings together our favorite things: nostalgia, storytelling, and deep dives into oddly specific topics from our past.

In this short teaser, we'll share what the show's about, why we made it, and what you can expect from upcoming episodes.

We're so glad you're still here. ❤️

To our PFC community,

As we sit here reflecting on the journey, we're overwhelmed with gratitude and emotion. Today marks the release of our final PFC episode, and we wanted to take a moment to express our thanks to each and every one of you.

From the very beginning, your support has been the heartbeat of this podcast. Your enthusiasm, feedback, and dedication have fueled our passion to create content that we hope has resonated with you on a profound level.

It's been an incredible ride filled with laughter, learning, and moments of genuine connection. Together, we've explored topics both heartfelt and lighthearted, delving into the depths of the creative experience and sharing stories that have touched our hearts.

Your engagement, whether through messages, reviews, or sharing episodes with friends, has meant more to us than words can express. Knowing that our conversations have sparked dialogue, inspired change, or simply brought a smile to your face has been the ultimate reward.

It's just time. We've grown, both personally and professionally, and we're in very different places than we were six years ago when we launched PFC. 100 episodes felt like the appropriate time to step away.

While this chapter may be coming to a close, it's not the end of our partnership. 20 years of friendship and we're just getting started. We are working on a new project that we're really excited about and will be sharing news of it with you soon. We think you'll like it.

As we bid farewell to PFC, thank you for being a part of our community. Your presence has truly made all the difference, and we're deeply honored to have shared this journey with you.

Until we meet again, keep creating things that you want to see.

Michelle & Steve
