IMMP
The Inter-Millennium Media Project, where a GenX dad subjects his Millennial son to 20th century media.
About the show
Matthew Porter and his son Ian Porter explore movies, TV, books and music from Matthew's youth, way back in the 20th Century. What stands the test of time? What doesn’t? And what's still worth binging in the new millennium?
Son learns what made Dad ... whatever he is today. And Dad learns what Son thinks of all this.
(Music by Jason Aro / Pond5)
