Description

In this week’s Flightless Bird, Rob schools David on Nickelodeon, the American TV channel launched on April 1, 1979, when David was just three years old. Nickelodeon gave us Rugrats, Doug, and SpongeBob SquarePants - and a bunch of shows David has never heard of like Are You Afraid of the Dark, Legends of the Hidden Temple, Keenan and Kel, and CatDog. What did it means to be a kid in America growing up with these characters, and what’s it like looking back? To explain: A Rob slideshow to rival all his previous slideshows.
Upcoming live show dates:
3/29 in Salt Lake City at the Depot https://bit.ly/flightlessSLC
4/2 in Austin at Emo's https://bit.ly/flightlessATX
4/4 in Dallas at the Texas Theatre https://bit.ly/flightlessDFW
