Episode description

Todd and Eric reminisce about the 80's-90's cultural phenomenon that is referred to as "the Satanic Panic", a time when just about anything that people opposed was linked to the devil as an excuse to condemn it.  

The Hersey boys recall how certain shows were strictly forbidden for reasons that make so sense to them (then OR now):  The Simpsons, Married with Children, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to name a few.  They share their "rock and roll is the devil's music" stories before Todd discusses his experiences trying to enjoy role playing games (like Dungeons and Dragons) in a time of evangelical persecution.
