Episode Details

In this episode of Podcast Like It’s 1999 Keely Flaherty (Netflix) joins Phil and Kenny to the Egyptology travelogue, “The Mummy.” While some see “The Mummy” as a morality tale set against the sandy deserts of Cairo, we here at Podcast Like It’s 1999 prefer to view the work as an ode to the weary archaeologist, she who spans the globe in search of the riches and secrets of a epoch lost to history. A living tribute to the brave men and women willing spelunk the darkest crypts, excavate the most haunted tombs and stare down the most terrifying ghouls, “The Mummy” exalts the modern archeologist, the true action hero.
