Welcome to Camp Wayback

The past isn’t dead. It’s just been waiting for us to come back.

Welcome to Camp Wayback — the podcast where three lifelong friends punch their ticket back to the movies, toys, TV shows, music, pop culture, and gloriously questionable decisions that made growing up in the ’80s and ’90s unforgettable.

This isn’t a history lesson. It’s a campfire conversation.

Every episode, we head back to a time when Friday night meant wandering the video store, Saturday morning meant cartoons, action figures ruled the toy aisle, movie stars felt larger than life, and discovering something awesome usually came from a friend saying, “Dude…you HAVE to see this.”

We’ll revisit the movies we wore out on VHS. The toys we begged our parents for. The characters we wanted to be. The songs we still know every word to. The forgotten gems we refuse to let die. And every once in a while, we’ll ask the dangerous question:

Was this stuff actually as awesome as we remember?

Expect ridiculous debates, brutally honest opinions, personal stories, deep dives, forgotten memories, plenty of laughs, and three grown men proving that apparently there is no age limit on arguing about 1980s movies and action figures.

But Camp Wayback is about more than nostalgia.

It’s about why this stuff still matters.

Why a movie can instantly take you back to being 12 years old. Why seeing an old toy on a shelf can unlock a memory you haven't thought about in 30 years. Why the things we loved growing up somehow became part of who we are today.

So grab a seat by the fire.

Crack open something cold.

And leave adulthood back at the cabin.

Welcome to Camp Wayback.

You’ve been here before.

  • Beauty, Brackets & Bad Decisions: Camp Wayback's Ladies of the 80s!
    Oct 14 2026

    Beauty, Brackets & Bad Decisions… what could possibly go wrong?

    Camp Wayback is settling one of the most important debates nobody asked us to settle: Who is the ultimate Lady of the 80s? We’ve built the bracket, seeded 32 unforgettable women of the decade, and now Mookie, Crawdaddy, and The Big Red Machine have to somehow survive the tournament without destroying friendships along the way.

    From horror icons and movie legends to pop-culture crushes who practically defined the decade, nobody is safe from elimination. Jamie Lee Curtis. Phoebe Cates. Sigourney Weaver. Heather Langenkamp. Kelly LeBrock. Elvira. Molly Ringwald. And plenty more enter the bracket—but only ONE can be crowned Camp Wayback’s ultimate Lady of the 80s.

    There will be questionable logic. There will be arguments. There will absolutely be bad decisions.

    🔥 Who would YOU crown the ultimate Lady of the 80s? Watch the tournament, then drop your winner—and the matchup we completely screwed up—in the comments.

    Welcome back to Camp Wayback, where the movies were better, the hair was bigger, and apparently we’ve decided tournament brackets are worth losing friends over.

    Oct 10 2026

    What if Halloween 5 and Halloween 6 had turned out COMPLETELY different? Believe it or not, the versions of these Michael Myers sequels that almost made it to the big screen might be even crazier than the movies we actually got!

    In Episode 2 of Mookie’s Matinee, we're heading back to Camp Wayback for a DOUBLE FEATURE of abandoned ideas, bizarre storylines, and questionable creative decisions from the history of the Halloween franchise! From the infamous clown costume concepts surrounding Halloween 5 to the absolutely bonkers virtual reality storyline proposed for Halloween 6, we're digging into the sequels that almost were—and asking the important question: Who the hell thought some of these ideas were good?!

    Pull up a lawn chair, crack open a cold one, and join Mookie, Crawdaddy, and the Big Red Machine as we revisit the roads not taken in Haddonfield. It's horror history, 80s and 90s nostalgia, questionable opinions, and plenty of laughs—the way we do things at Camp Wayback!

    🎃 Which abandoned Halloween sequel would YOU have wanted to see? Drop your thoughts in the comments, and don't forget to LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and join us for more retro movie madness!

    Welcome to Camp Wayback—where nostalgia never dies, but the camp counselors probably should have!

  • Over the Top: Stallone, Arm Wrestling, Diner Food & Peak ’80s Insanity!
    Oct 7 2026

    Fire up the semi, turn that hat backwards, and get ready to meet us OVER THE TOP! 💪🚛

    This week at Camp Wayback, Mookie, Crawdaddy, and the Big Red Machine are heading back to 1987 for one of the most gloriously ’80s movies ever committed to film: Sylvester Stallone’s Over the Top. It’s got big rigs, bigger biceps, daddy issues, Kenny Loggins, and an arm-wrestling tournament treated with the intensity of the Super Bowl, WrestleMania, and Rocky IV combined.

    But after all these years, does Over the Top still have the horsepower to cross the finish line—or is nostalgia doing some seriously heavy lifting?

    Crack open your beverage of choice, turn your hat around, and grab a seat by Rewind Lake. Movie Night is officially underway at Camp Wayback, where the movies are questionable, the memories are undefeated, and somehow Mookie is still allowed to supervise the camp.

    What’s your favorite moment from Over the Top? And where does it rank among Stallone’s ’80s classics? Drop a 5 star review, talk about it in the comments and join us at Camp Wayback!
