Back to EpisodesEp. 29 Xmen Trading Cards in the 90s, Beakman's World, Bedazzled Movie Spotlight
Description
This week in Roly’s Retro Room, we dive headfirst into the wonderfully weird world of Beakman's World — the messy lab coats, Lester the Rat, and the chaotic 90s science energy that somehow actually taught us stuff.
Then we rip open some serious nostalgia with 90s X-Men trading cards — holographics, power levels, and the absolute chokehold those cards had on every kid with a plastic sleeve binder. Were you keeping them mint… or trading them away at recess?
For our movie spotlight, we revisit Bedazzled, starring Brendan Fraser and Elizabeth Hurley — a deal-with-the-devil comedy that perfectly captures early 2000s vibes.
Plus two mini-segments you didn’t know you needed: • Why did kids used to BITE into Nerf balls?!
• The ultimate debate: What goes first… milk or cereal?
It’s random. It’s nostalgic. It’s slightly unhinged. Just how we like it.
