Transistor (https://transistor.fm) https://feeds.transistor.fm/rose-tinted-ruin-pop-culture-nostalgia-capsules A rotating cast of hosts dig into Australian pop culture memory — the warm glow, and what it's covering up. Every episode starts with something you half-remember — a chart fluke, a console war, a puppet with a filthy outtake reel — and asks what's actually still true about it. Some episodes go quiet and personal. Some go looking for the receipt. All of them sit in the gap between how good it felt and how it actually went. Rose-tinted, and genuinely ruined — sometimes in that order, sometimes not.
