Hey gang, it’s time for our March 2020 bonus show! Kind of a strange topic this month, but it’s something we’re both super passionate about. Little did we know that before we were friends, we briefly shared the same video store. It was this place called Easy Video, located in New Jersey. This was pretty much the last old school VHS rental place that either of us could get to without a long drive, so it’ll always hold a special place in our hearts.

It also helps that Easy Video was just plain weird, dealing as much in trading cards and ancient candy as VHS tapes. In this month’s bonus show, we run through some of our memories of this magical place. We only wish we’d become friends while it was still in business!

Enjoy, and thanks as always for supporting us on Patreon. Times are crazy, and we hope you’re all hanging in there. You probably need as many distractions as you can find right now, so we’ll be back soon with our next full-length show!

Geoff Bartlett

Thanks guys! I’ve been going back through the PSP and Dino Drac archives this week to distract me from the anxieties of the world. Hope you are both well.

Impeccable timing, as Always, Gents!!! This was SUCH a great throw-back... I spent my early 20's doing things I'll never admit (in print), and when time came to pursue a degree & re-enter the workforce, I ended up where many did - BLOCKBUSTER... mid-90's - Good Times, but on the decline already... When I got to LA in 99, I found that most VHS outlets still breathing were primarily 'retro' joints, with lots of charm, and LOTS of very old titles (which added even more charm!). The one MAJOR standout for me was "Eddie Brandt's Saturday Matinee" in North Hollywood... This is a place that was more of a museum (or more accurately, an archive), of SERIOUSLY un-gettable tapes - including foreigns, and even some TV mini-series that were never actually released... This place has been family owned since 1969, and is STILL in business... For a good time, check out their web site... I was fortunate enough to rent some loooong forgotten titles here, and even ran into QT once during a visit... ;) Hand's Down, the Greatest Video Store ever (IMHO)... But even though they are still chuggin' along - we have ALL lost a lot, with the demise of the 'Local Video Store"... I'm with you, Matt - for so many years, I would just look at the scary box art, and have wild imaginings about what wondrous horrors lurked inside (without having the courage to actually RENT them... ;) GREAT Podcast, Guys, and Prayers for You and All of Yours to remain SAFE & HEALTHY...!

Love this! My local video store I LIVED AT growing up was called Music Forum. They were a mashup of music store selling cassettes, vinyl, and the decks/turntables/EQ’s/and speakers to play them on as well as video store. And my personal favorite was the video game wall loaded with NES, SEGA Genesis, SNES, and even SEGA CD and 3DO games! Miss that place so much. 😔

Not sure how I missed this last month but this is so good. This past summer I was in Oregon and got to visit the last remaining Blockbuster. It was glorious. I also stopped in a mom and pop video store on the Oregon coast. I looked like one of the kids in Willy Wonka, just wide eyed and amazed

All the old rental stores that were here closed years ago. And any that not Blockbuster and open around here converted to only renting (gross!) or selling nothing but porn for the last few years of their existence. Reminded me of the old Sneaker pimps song.

I used to work at a grocery store and they rented videos. I remember they used to get poster packs in with the new releases, but they never put any of the up, so I used to drive around the back of the store and grab it out of the dumpster. I ended up with so many good posters because of that.
