About this podcast
The Time Pals are geek dads with bad takes on every facet of retro pop culture. Releasing episodes twice a month, the Time Pals topics range from retro video games, nostalgic movies, classic toys, and vintage comic books. But never pro-wrestling.
...Okay, sometimes pro-wrestling.
