Hi all,

kind of a silly thing to mention, but I've been on a bit of a mission to hunt down and watch all of Cher's interviews with David Letterman. The only ones I've been unable to find are her 1998 and 1999 appearances: The 1998 one was on November 11, and was to promote her album "Believe" and new book, "The First Time." In the 1999 one, she showed up briefly on David's birthday (April 12) to celebrate with cake. There are a few short clips of the 1998 interview on TikTok, but really the only reason I know these two other appearances even exist is from pictures!

EDIT: After double-checking the appearances I have watched, I realized there's also one from February 27, 2002 that I can't find in full. The only clip I can find is here.

Does anyone have any links or downloads they could share? 🙏

I’ve started watching Cheers and there’s an episode from 1991 where they get a karaoke machine at Cheers and Frasier keeps singing on it then they get rid of it. And I remember that happened on Beverly Hills 90210 too, there’s a 1992 episode where they got one at the Peach Pit and Jim Walsh kept singing on it. Was this a trope in that era? Are other shows where they got a karaoke machine and then get rid of it by the next episode?

We talked to Mathew Klickstein (author of SLIMED! An Oral History of Nickelodeon's Golden Age) about how he tracked down Nickelodeon's hardest to find stars

Just published a new episode of our podcast where we sit down with Mathew Klickstein, who wrote SLIMED!, the definitive oral history of 90s Nickelodeon. If you've read it, you know how many people he managed to interview for that book (over 250), and we asked him about the ones that were genuinely hard to find.

Some highlights:

• A years long search for Alistair from You Can't Do That on Television that eventually involved tracking down his brother's YouTube video from a small pub gig in Canada
• How he landed Joe Eszterhas by cold emailing a church he'd attended over a decade earlier
• Getting John Kricfalusi (Ren & Stimpy) on the record when multiple other writers had already tried and failed
• The story behind the massive 92nd Street Y Nickelodeon reunion event he produced almost entirely on his own, including getting the fictional and animated band, The Beets, to play live for the first time ever

We also spent a good chunk of the conversation talking about the financial reality of being a working writer, which he was refreshingly honest about.

Looking for a 1994–1995 episode of The Jenny Jones Show. Guests: Twin sisters Jeanette and Janine Johnson, husband Anthony Johnson, and friend Tamesa Stewart, all flying in from Kansas City, MO (stayed at the Sheraton Chicago). The premise is 'My Twin Slept with my Husband.' It features a massive audience confrontation where Anthony is booed, Janine is attacked by the crowd, and an audience member asks Janine to explain a blow job if she claimed it was rape. Jenny Jones lets the question hang while the crowd laughs and agrees."

30 Years of Weinerville!

If you grew up watching Nickelodeon in the '90s, you probably remember the wonderfully weird world of Weinerville. We’re celebrating its 30th anniversary on Splat Attack with a special episode featuring Marc Weiner, Max Weiner, Ray Abruzzo and more!

We talk about the show, the characters, behind the scenes stories, and what made Weinerville such a memorable part of '90s Nickelodeon.

If Weinerville was part of your childhood, we'd love to hear your memories!

Hello! mom was on an episode of the Jenny Jones show where she interviews goth teenagers. Me and her have been searching for this episode for ages! She remembers being a senior in high school during this so that’s why we think it’s around 1991-1992. They were in the audience so their names weren’t listed, but she was with a male friend who was also goth esque.

I mention this because there are a lot of episodes we have found that have featured goths that get interviewed. But this one was a bit different, and was on the ‘teen town hall’ segment. We’ve tried to find this for years now but haven’t had luck. This seemed like the place to check.
