Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 169 – The Sweet Tooth of Civility
In this episode of Trampled Underfoot Podcast, Mark Lindsay declares his love of Marshmallow Peeps. Is the return of a long dormant sweet tooth a result of age, or is it simple nostalgia?

Eloy Escagedo then introduces a discussion about rudeness in general, and a growing lack of civility in today’s society. What caused us to become so selfish and self centered? Can we ever pull ourselves back from the constant arguments and disregard for one another as fellow humans?

Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 164 – It’s All About Style
In this episode of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast, Eloy Escagedo and Mark Lindsay open with a couple of series Eloy has been enjoying on Netflix, one of which being Cobra Kai. In this series, based on the Karate Kid movies of the 80s, the perspective is changed from that of the good guy to that of the perceived villain. In the re-imagined series, we see the villain of the movies wasn’t actually a villain at all. This brings up the topic of producers, directors, and performers taking characters we hold dear, and re-imagining them, sometimes changing genre, other times just changing the perception of those characters from a different point…

Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 122 – The Trampled Underfoot Podcast 2020 Christmas Special
This year, it’s out of our hands. We just have to let it go. Even this episode fell victim to the 2020 gremlins, where we were plagued with connection issues. That out of the way, we talk about the joy of the season, and whether that has changed for us as the years have passed. Also, what was that one toy you just had to have? How about the Christmas food that you had growing up? The things that you ate then, that still bring you that holiday vibe? And how the heck does David Gilmour figure into all of this? It’s a jingle bell-ish romp through the memories of…

Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 111 – Movie Trailer Trash
Episode 111 of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast starts with a conversation about landmark events in history, ignited by a bad joke.

We rail at movie studios for giving away too much of a movie’s plot in a trailer – but will we ever go see the film if they don’t do that?

Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 110 – Ipswich Clams
Episode 110 of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast starts out as a mish-mash. First, Eloy Escagedo and Mark Lindsay revisit the theme of cartoons from the 60s predicting the future. Then Mark cleans up the mess he made last week when bringing up the SS Warrimoo – the ship that existed in two different centuries at the same time. Finally, Eloy puts Mark on the spot with 6 fairly easy questions, that took way, way too long to answer, and required entirely too much thought on Mark’s part. We had a few other side trips as well, and you can be sure there’s a lot of fun and humor along the…

Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 105 – Tale of Two Cities
Episode 105 of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast is a trip back to the podcast’s roots. Eloy Escagedo and Mark Lindsay have always been fans of music. But how was it that these rock stars started out as seemingly ordinary people, then became so amazing at their craft? And what was up with the 60s trend of the music industry releasing singles that weren’t on the newly released album they were promoting at the time? The discussion winds its way around to the injection of Hip-Hop into Rock and Roll. How does this trend compare to to the infusion of Disco and Rock back in the 70s? Is the blurring of…
