Episode 133: MySpace

It is here folks, the ultimate millennial dump. MySpace was not the first social media platform, but it was the first to truly infect the youth of the world and change the way people interact forever.

Episode 132: XFL REDUX

We are throwing (get it!?) it back to episode 55 and revisiting the short-lived pro sports experiment THE XFL. One part WWE and no part NFL, the XFL was the brain child of Vince McMahon and Dick Ebersol, two titans of entertainment with no one to answer to.

Episode 131: Danielle Steel

This is a dump hiding in plain sight. Some skeptical dumpers might say that the best selling author of all time does not qualify to be a dump, but they would be wrong. The woman who has personally impacted the romantic expectations and fantasies of an estimated 1 billion readers, has also lived a life plagued by scandal, secrets, and dumpable moments. There is also some really sad stuff too. RIP Nick, long live Link 80. Danielle might not have made the best choices, but we mean no disrespect.
